Slippage: BK Poems is a collection of fifty-one poems by BK (Baruch Kirschenbaum), all written since the turn of the twenty-first century, including reflections on nature, family, love, dreams, society, and mortality. As the author notes: "I think about the poems I write as brief essays in poetic form on experiences and observations and, more abstractly, on the nature of things as I see them. In that sense, my poems are more thought poems than what are referred to as 'Language poems'-which is not to suggest that there is no thought in the latter, for clearly there is. I do, however, usually write without punctuation, perhaps to slow the uptake of meaning. More than that there is little to say, except that I hope you will find some virtue and pleasure in these meditations."
