"One of [William Stafford's] most amazing gifts to poetry is his theme of the golden thread. He believes that whenever you set a detail down in language, it becomes the end of a thread... and every detail --the sound of the lawn mower, the memory of your father's hands, a crack you once heard in the lake ice, the jogger hurtling herself past your window-- will lead you to amazing riches." --Robert Bly, The Darkness Around Us is Deep, p. vii.
