“Arcangelini situates his observations about gay desire . . . within the natural world of changing seasons, altering phases of the moon, and the destruction wrought by great storms and fires. A valuable addition to the growing body of well-written gay male verse which documents our politics, eroticism, life transitions, relationships, and sense of community.”

“Vivekan lived an intensely examined life of immense sensitivity. I first met him when he was teaching yoga, and soon learned he worked at a cutting-edge center for the healing arts out past Bolinas. And then on top of all that, I learned he wrote poetry as well. I was impressed with the life he'd built for himself. But it was the poetry, above all else, that made us run away together.”
