Coyote Highway

Coyote Highway is the latest from Walla Walla poet Charles Potts. This from Beverly J. Wilcox, co-founder and editor of Least Bittern Books: "I have followed Potts- or rather, once I found him I found anything worth finding of his and read it. It was all worth finding. While his voice is loud and clear, and easily recognized- the way you know its Hendrix or Garcia or Vaughn after just a few notes- perhaps it is by way of 'tone, ' that we recognize the greats...each book is quite different from the last. In this case he addresses the wilderness, and the wild he contains by tenderly caring for and breeding horses. Potts is wild as he is trained into the kind of focus one achieves through mindfulness. The world he exists in is uncontrolled and contained. This is a much different Potts from the Litmus days, or Valga Krusa. This indeed is a different Potts than his 2015 Pilgrim & Martel. He never manages to complete a sentence or sentiment without saying something wondrous about the state of affairs mankind tends to be with or without our interference. It is rich with the colorful language of pastoral tomes, but implying impish tendencies he may act upon- so watch him close! There is wisdom in this book which makes it worth reading, even in this fast-paced time. As I read it I found keys and signs and synchronicities in my own life, as though life was repeating Potts back to me. So in a sense the book is now a part of me, and I am inseparable from it. Since I am a poet, I am as vain as I am humble, and therefore want everyone to enjoy what I enjoy, so please do."
