“Andy Fogle’s poetry is a lighthouse, a boat ticket, a last seat and a way out. He has what few have: knowledge of the enigma of the poem, its mysterious interiority, its final yes. As long as I’ve known his work; I’ve admired it, and recognized him as a born poet, someone among us to be read and for whose presence in our midst to be grateful—thank you, Andy, for your startling lucidity.”
