Sendecki's poetry ranges from short phrases to elegant prose. His words do more than bring forth the essence of traveling abroad and immortalizing a place. Sendecki crafts his phrases so precisely as to hold onto a moment and open it up so that the reader can share that instant as it was, even years later.
A word of warning to future readers
is advised. Sendecki confronts the brutal reality of Septemper 11, 2001
in more than one poem, each heart-rending in simplicity, honesty, and a
unique beauty.
