Even Now pares Rosemerry Wahtola Trommer's expansive work down to three lines in this collection of poems, each paired with a spare drawing by artist Jill Sabella. The image-poem interaction floats on the page, evoking old ideas, bonfires burning out of control, feelings of long ago, touch hope, and the possibility of Spring.

Excerpt from Even Now:

my heart an apple blossom
afraid it doesn't know
how to become an apple
