Heather Cadsby writes, "I live close to Mimico Creek. It's a 33 km watercourse with headwater in Brampton ON and mouth in Lake Ontario at Toronto.
It lies between the Humber River to the east and Etobicoke Creek to the west. Mimico Creek has found its way into seven poems in my book, Could be. One of these is Recursus.
In Could be, each poem is a moment of engaged and isolated attention, prodding language, relationships, the mundane aspects of daily life, friendships and art.
It asks how we use words, how we shape them and are in turn shaped by them.
