Writing[]

Boston Review: "Here's wildness and art, in right proportion: the wildness is surprise without swagger; the art is graceful and mostly disappearing, and otherwise a little extravagant. As in the case of jugglery (another of Joanie Mackowski's mastered arts), loopiness is nothing without the catch. Dropped clubs, flat cakes, flat notes -- where but in poetry is a native gift for clumsiness, sedulously conserved, so praised? [6]
