Even through the fog of grief Liphart bravely delivers the good news 'Hope is not a dead language / it whispers in our sleep.' In this collection of poems I believe it not only whispers but calls each and every one of us by name." - Matthew Dickman, author of All American Poem </em>and Guggenheim Fellow</p><p>"Morgan Liphart's Barefoot and Running</em> blends the topographies of place and heart to reach a fitful communion between them. At once lyrical and candid, these poems sojourn 'across the border of ourselves' into fresh realms of inner and outer weather. While this shared space may be tinged with regret, it is also elevated by the outstretched hand of possibility - the poet's notion that indeed there are "stars inside your bones" at any altitude." - Kevin Stein, author of American Ghost Roses</em> and Illinois Poet Laureate 2003-2017</p><br>
