The poems in Proximity Talks bring forth a joyous garden of wild but nonetheless undaunted and hardy poems. In the desert we’ve made of meaning, there is still a pleasant oasis with real streams and fecund soil. Kristen Hanlon has discovered this lost world and made it thrive. Her language is a haven from which she’s able to “open the curtains to a sky reveling in cold, bright stars” and to rewind/recoil back into paradise.
