A Wide & Vast World of the Soul,
By
This review is from: Sitting by His Bones (Hardcover)
James BlueWolf, second Poet Laureate of Lake County,is a treasure on the page or to listen to in person as his deep, resonant voice caresses and intones the words in his carefully crafted and profoundly envisioned and felt poetry.
In the title poem, "Sitting by His Bones: A four-generations poem," BlueWolf ends: "We sat in shadow silently, smoked our prayers and played my father's flute as dusk drew down by the bones in Grandfather's grave." BlueWolf's "Sitting by His Bones" coins the word "Indin" for Native American/Indian ethnic references. It's an indication of his humor and wish to cut through cant. This is a human book. All humans can read and enjoy his poems, including "Doesn't It Hurt?" a dialogue between Old Man and Young Boy. It's a wide and vast world that James BlueWolf's poetry opens the door to.
