A strong, nicely arranged collection of poems about grief and witnessing the decline of a parent with a mental illness. My personal favorites from the collection managed to make my eyes tear:
"Read the House"
"At Last, Fire Seen As a Psychotic Break"
"Westwood Lodge, 1980-1990"
"Night Nurse"
"Blessed Thistle"
"An Elegy for Bells"

Also really liked "Macbeth's Problem", "Azarel", and "Threepence, Great Britain, 1943"
