About a previous book, poet Martha Collins describes Kevin Clark's
ability to move 'seamlessly' between subjects and timeframes; she
notes, 'Kevin Clark's poems perform the magic his passion dictates
and his intelligence won't quite allow.' Indeed, the reader finds
such magic, the seamless juxtaposition of incongruities in his
latest book. Take, as an example, 'In Between' from The
Consecrations, where he rocks between the 'pure matter' of 'simple
science' while watching the 'late moonlight / glow riding' his
wife's skin 'as she slept,' to the haunting call of midnight, moon,
and wind that dare the poet into the dark. What he finds in that
'in between,' the seamless place where incongruities make sense of
our existences, is sound that betrays 'belief / in only the
tactile.' He finds, consequently, an energy or power that,
'untouchable,' emanates from her as she sleeps. The ability to see
from contrary vantage points poises Kevin Clark in a place where he
can lead us to the simplest blessings. This is no forgetting, and,
in Kevin Clark's world, all things are consecrated and holy.
