"Kitchen" includes a painting by Maria Pomiansky of the slippered, tousled artist at work drawing a red cabbage; and a poem by Stefan Lorenzutti about his fateful decision to open a bottle of wine with a woodworking tool.

Poems about being halfway between here and there, on highways and hiking trails; about the balm of blank billboards and overcast skies when your eyes are sore; about questing for comfort zones.
