"Delicate, gracious, and eloquent, Brandi's poems reveal that he remains an extraordinary profound poet of prayer and praise."--David St. John

"A subtly crafted compendium of geophysical/metaphysical perception shifts and non-static reflections by a world-poet, journeying yet always profoundly at home in this multi-layered Trickster world."--Ken Rodgers, Kyoto Journal

"These poems shine with a Taoist sensibility and the wisdom and simplicity of self. Poems of rare precision, charm, and truth."--Joanne Kyger
