Moonlighting as an Avalanche Daniel Romo

In MOONLIGHTING AS AVALANCHE, Daniel Romo gives us prose poems as proverbs, filled with famine, faith, frailty, and failure, but also filled with hope, vulnerability, trust and healing. In a voice both wise and searching, Romo's poems function almost like prayers or incantations, 'an approaching whisper, a collection of last breaths holding up a life.' Like an avalanche, there is falling and breaking, but also moving away from the source of rupture and headlong toward a softer landing, a new beginning.--Donna Vorreyer
