Neuware - Book DescriptionI. AMONG OTHERS, Marie Reilly's third collection of poems, considers the bittersweet collision of memory of long-held relationships with a life engaged in forming new ones.II. The pleasurable creativity in events that offer the company of women forms the basis of the first segment, titled 'One Among Others.'Reed/sOne reed and othershollow, one and allin shallow waters flourish.In shallows refreshin sun enliven aswarmlight throbs andfills the hollows.One by onethey give up their songto the winds.
