A small book that rewards savoring

Nobody Is Ever MissingNobody Is Ever Missing by Cody WilsonMy rating: 4 of 5 stars Cody Wilson’s chapbook is rich in simple but vital language evoking real emotion from real experience. “Nobody is Ever Missing” strikes the right balance between mourning the awareness of mortality and celebrating the living. In “The Dust of Us” Wilson imagines himself dead and present only in the dust that drifts around us: “You can print your finger in me, drag me across the table… You watch me float though the narrow fingers 0f light knuckled by each blind…” A small book. “Nobody” is one that rewards savoring its clear poetry.
