Invisible Foreground is a work of poetry that traces a journey from childhood into an adult world that is filled with tenderness, terror, and the wish for secure familial surroundings. Always on the verge of disappearing into a fractured memory the speaker is both sure and unsure of, these poems embroider lived reality with dreams of the imagination. Suburban houses, provincial terrain, furniture, feelings, physical desire (among other things) all serve, in the mind of the poet, as emotional set designs for a half century of life as performance.
