Parenthood and partnership dwell in Taylor Malis poems in addition to a tender gloom that comes from having lost a father years before finally becoming one, a late father. Malis signature playful eloquence and poignant observations are still at work here, but in these poems, Mali tells us, all the smallest parts of me . . . can let down their tiny burdens all at once (My Sister Asks if She Can See More Grey), and a wiser, more magnanimous voice emerges, a fathers voice, gently offering up a new invocation:O, lightning, if youre listening, disregardmy former invocations. And rain, please blessmy simple little poems; theyre plenty hardto write, and the world needs them no less.Let my family if not my other works outlive me.And to those who have survived the storm, forgive me.(from Sonnet on My Former Invocations)
