At the end of a workday Marvin Dorsey travels 60 minutes by freeway, exiting on a long unpaved desert road to his ranch home in Lancaster. There he is greeted by the wind, lone tumbleweeds rambling across the sandy vista, and a variety of farmyard animals. The dichotomies of city and desert, noise and quietude, and the confines of a cage vs.the expansive freedom of the night’s universe of stars, inform the heart of Marvin’s poetry – where a deep interior life shares the page with the wide exterior landscape.
