Prognosis by Jim Moore Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description Jim Moore's poems "are chips of reality, obsidian flakes of the heart and mind" (Jane Hirshfield)In his eighth collection, the celebrated poet Jim Moore looks into unrelenting darkness where moments of tenderness and awe illuminate, at times suddenly like lightning in the night, at others, more quietly, as the steady glow of streetlights in a snowstorm. These are poems of both patience and urgency, of necessary attendance and helpless exuberance in the breathing world-something rare in contemporary poetry. Written in Minneapolis amid the COVID-19 pandemic's masked and distanced loneliness, after the police murder of George Floyd, as an empire comes to an end, Prognosis turns toward the living moment as a surprising source of abundance. Here we find instances of essential human connection animated by a saving grace that pulls us back from depression and despair. Contemplating with playful wisdom what it is to brave the later years of one's life, Moore revels in the possibilities of joy and mourns the limits of our capacity to greet the unknown with resolve and wonder. The prognosis Moore foresees demands continued stillness, continued movement: "Also known as going home," he writes. "Also known as getting over yourself."
