Beyond speaking of possession and dominance, which so often come
cloaked in the placating language of stewardship; beyond speaking
as merely an observer of the destruction wreaked upon the natural
and social environments of this planet--Richard Greenfield's TRACER
brings us back to our senses. In an examination of the savage, and
savagely beautiful particularity of our existence, this is equally
and essentially a poetry that respects, even as it implicates, the
mystery and peril of speaking through one's own limited frame. A
word might at one moment allude to the 'tracer' who exposes an
image's delicate outline and then, at the next, to the 'tracer'
rounds that lethally illuminate a target in the dark. These lyric
poems are deeply ethical and austerely honest in their implication
of, and reflections upon, the limits of morality and honesty.
Nonetheless, this is also a poetry that seeks to emancipate the
voice of witness from the generalities of despair through its
exacting engagement with this world.
