| Sumario: | The text presents a series of poems by Spencer Reece that explore themes of faith, loss, memory, and community through vivid imagery and personal reflection. Central to the poems is the motif of walking a tightrope, symbolizing balance amid life's challenges, and the recurring invocation to "walk in the light of the Lord," which underscores a spiritual perspective. The poems reference specific places such as New Haven, Wickford, and the Old Narragansett Church, and touch on historical and contemporary events, including personal family loss and the 2022 shooting at Brown University. Throughout, the poems meditate on mortality, legacy, and the search for meaning within both individual and collective experiences.
