Synopsis

Dimitrova suggests through vivid, sometimes ironic imagery that our life is imperfect, but we don't have a better one.

Kristin Dimitrova seems to want to stop time, to make us notice how important the things we consider trivial or coincidental truly are; to remind us of the inexplicable mystery we are part of; to gently suggest that we return the love of those close to us; to offer us snapshots of our fleeting sensations; to bring back the sharp awareness of the pain that comes with life's transience. Her poems subtly remind us that life, while it still flows, is imperfect -- and the moment short of perfection is precisely what we should be grateful for.
