		Lorna Crozier is prolific, and it would be a delight to have more selections.
		Crozier is at ease with many different forms and subjects, and her voice is always assured, unpretentious, and intelligent.
		Crozier honours the simple but profound task of attention that both writing and reading poetry demands, and is unafraid to call it a kind of "devotion." The Erica Grimm Vance painting on the cover, Growing Fiery Wings, is an entirely appropriate choice for this volume.

	Phoenix from the Ashes: Lorna Crozier and Margaret Avison in Contemporary Mourning
		Crozier is widely considered to be an accessible poet, Avison a challenging and sometimes obscure one.
		Crozier can write with ease about penises, Avison is much more interested in the "optic heart." However, these two women find common ground in dealing with one of contemporary society’s most powerful addictions, and in doing so, they may be read as revising traditional elegiac elements to work through a recognizable process of mourning.
		As with Crozier’s poem, the notion that women may use elegy as a strategy for deferring separation (Schenck 22) can here be useful only parodically: the poet must separate to live, and the elegy must work in a traditional linear pattern from mourning to acceptance of loss to enable some degree of literal self-surpassal.

		Before the First Word: The Poetry of Lorna Crozier is a collection of thirty-five of her best poems, selected and introduced by Catherine Hunter, and includes an afterword by Crozier herself.
		Crozier's afterword, “See How Many Ends This Stick Has: A Reflection on Poetry,” is a lyrical meditation that provides an inspirational glimpse into the philosophy of a writer who prizes the intensity of awareness that poetry demands, and is tantalized by what predates speaking and all that cant be named.

		Lorna Crozier; $17.99 paper 0-7710-2467-3, 96 pp., 5 1/2 x 8 1/2, McClelland and Stewart, Mar.
		For the most part, Crozier hoes the same old row of free-verse anecdote and lyric that has been the dominant mode since the middle of the last century.
		Crozier does occasionally limn something in taut strong language â“ as in the title poem, wherein the eponymous whetstone is âFlat, fl, and shot with micaâ â“ but such moments are rare glints in an otherwise grey pile of gravel.

		But Crozier and Lane write their Intro mostly in celebration, excitement, and gratitude for the good poems they found.
		Crozier and Lane mention that the poets in their new anthology differ from those in their earlier one in being more widely published and awarded at the time of their anthology inclusions, but this does not mean that the second Breathing Fire includes more memorable poems than the first.
		A cynical view might see the growing commonness of interrelated poems as only a product of the contest industry or of workshop-and-thesis convenience, but while acknowledging that factor I also believe there is more to it than that, something that involves confidence and ambition, in the favourable senses of the words.
