These poems open the door to the mysterious, sensual, and luminous place that sustains and gives dimension to our everyday lives-where our dreams keep watch over our possible selves, the music of words lullabies what we may have forgotten or excluded, and we find healing in intimate connection with other lives. The journey up glass mountain is both a slippery and a revelatory one that lifts our glass to the light-- making transparent both our wounds and our climb toward joy.
