Poetry. "LATE NIGHT CALLS is a gathering of messages that comes to us deep in our lives, where they bring the important news that it's all right to let ourselves care for one another, it's all right to give words of tenderness. The most remarkable of these fabulous poems are both fairy tales that articulate our wakeful sleep, and bedtime stories against the dark, lending reassurance and calm to those nights when we turn between loss and failure. Like the caller of the title poem, Mark Vinz 'needs to be heard.' We need to listen"—Jay Meek.
