As If Free
"As quiet an experience as anyone could wish for." ---Cid Corman --
Visible at Dusk
Burt KimmelmanÃs essays range across cultures and their artifacts, weighing the reach of the arts, especially in the avant-garde as the modern becomes postmodern. Over a long century our poetry, art, architecture and film have determined a history that determined them, taking shape as they shaped us.
Gradually the World
Poetry. Art. With drawings by Basil King. "The specificity of Burt Kimmelman's poems has, for more than thirty years, been a singularly locating force. It situates us in space, in relation to the luminosity of objects, art, and one another. That every shadow of wonder can stand forth in the most familiar words is the gift this poet offers his readers time and again." Susan Howe"
The Way We Live
Poetry. "Burt Kimmelman is a poet who trusts what is: the continuous autonomy of two people in a close marriage, the unalterable passage of time, the lies the mirror tells us, the comfort of 'simply living / among the objects of the day.' Yet, like the inimitable domestic scenes painted by Pierre Bonnard, Kimmelman's quiet poems contain the luminescence of perception, its lure, its beauty, its Zen of breath, tracing beauty in the pulse of the extant."—Star Black
The "winter Mind"

Somehow
Poetry. Kimmelman has previously published three collections of poetry, including a collaboration with the painter Fred Caruso. He teaches English at the New Jersey Institute of Technology, and is the author of two book-length literary-critical studies. Burt Kimmelman is a poet who obviously admires the clarity of classical Chinese poetry and strives for it in his tight syllabics and in his shifting images of light and dark. In doing so, he finds what is luminously transcendent in the routines of everyday life -- Harvey Shapiro.
Wings Apart
Poetry. "Suzuki writes: 'The true artist, like a Zen master, is one who knows how to appreciate the myo of things...[to make] a glimpse of things eternal in the world of constant changes.' In WINGS APART, Burt Kimmelman does just that. He observes the natural world, the plaintive cry noted, but never breaking the reverie. His is a painterly art of tracking beauty and the movement of desire and loss in everyday life. 'Wings apart / the bird floats / above trees.' As a true Zen haiku artist, Kimmelman finds solace in stillness, and reading his poems, I too am comforted by the beauty and acceptance therein."-- Barbara Henning
