Overview
The poems in Dennis Hinrichsen's Cage of Water explore collisions of spirit and matter, that
thorn-and-thistle bathas he states in the book's final poem, where the limitations and entanglements of the flesh give over to provisional and sometimes fractured radiance and everlasting. This radiance takes many forms---an uncle with Down Syndrome calling out the makes of cars through thehrsh lght, Gds lght, faltring ner th crwn of the skul; a woman'sneck cords flaring,leaping out in muscular form, fluted/arc/briefly held instant; his father sleeping,bird cry/pouring/out of him/like string/or/knotted rainas the narrator resists waking him and lets mosquitoes feed. Confronted with the natural world, Hinrichsen peers closely at such things as mules standing in the rain, the flight of a swallowtail, orcloudwork lighting the weave of troutand fashions uncanny threadings of self and other. Throughout the book, Hinrichsen transcends thebright, beautiful cage of the sensesin lines and stanzas that are alert to the fluidity and exactness of perception to find themeasureless silkof our common existence.
