From The Still Empty Grave

Collected Poems
Wilber Stevens sees poetry as a way of seeing things, of focusing on the awesome dimensions of being alive. In this collection of poems, Stevens explores the complex connections between place and experience; life and death; the world of books and the quotidian world of work, pain, and loss.
In this masterful collection of poems, Las Vegas poet Stevens explores the complex connections between life and death, place and experience, the world of books, and the quotidian world of work, pain, and loss. Stevens’ poems reflect an experience as vast as the world itself. His attention moves from Burma, where he records the corruption of that nation’s ancient Buddhist ideals, to Idaho, where nature—not politics—pursues us. These poems also explore the tenuous relationships between man and nature in a vast range of environments. A sense of place dominates this work, but in his poems we learn that one can never settle down, never ignore the presence of the mysterious that permeates all mundanities, never deny the sacred partner to our ephemeral mischief.
