Carlo Rovelli, Italian physicist, says that "the world is not a
collection of things, it is a collection of events." Poet Diane
Louie thinks of prose poems as little events. They are happening
and happenings. They draw on experience, image, metaphor, and all
the properties of language to create little worlds-in-motion-in
motion being the operative words: spinning while orbiting, actively
shifting our point of view. More genus than hybrid species, prose
poems can straddle the obvious limits and less-obvious liberties of
perception. This active characteristic of spanning and connecting
is especially relevant in a time of cultural polarization.
Marrying, even uneasily, the inquiries of science and spiritual
longing can illuminate what they-and we-have in common: a desire to
understand our presence in a universe that does not yield ultimate
answers.
