Wanderlust  allows us to see many things about our  life. "Road Scatter" is a collection of  poetry from Sandra Meek as she touches  on the nature of travel and how loss can  change places we've already been. "Road Scatter" is an enticing and much  recommended addition to contemporary  poetry collections. "Colony of Ice": We  struck south to recall winter/as grace,  sky no longer constellating//the  permanent frost of a country's/baroque sadness, no longer a crystalline  breath//purled to whitecaps' lace, froth at the mouth/of the dog wandering the  village the morning//that would end her,  arrival our single shot/skidding her  eyes to that milky glaze//heralding snow,  rainforest and thorn desert/gnawed to  one echo, a tiny listening//rippling the single sheet we kept unfolding, the  white stare of home.
