Find Me
Pat Daneman
In the middle of August 2018, somewhere in Kansas, a man disappeared. He was 49 years old and had been married for 26 years. He worked as a mid-level marketing manager for a cardboard box manufacturer. No one who knew him could think of any reason he would leave home. No one could imagine that anyone would want to harm him. He has not been found.
Starting with this story as its backdrop, Pat Daneman’s Find Me is “a haunting series of poems about getting lost and finding yourself, about the reasons for leaving and what it means to be left behind, about the way the past leaves us and death always finds us” (editor and author David Banach).
