The Names of Time presents her last poems in the order that Mary Ann Waters personally arranged them before her death from cancer in 1994. Like the poems in her highly acclaimed first volume, The Exact Place (1987), these forty poems frequently comment on her dual vocation as poet and teacher. But whether she is writing about a bull elk in Yellowstone, a joyful encounter with a black bear, the graceful hangtime of NBA star Hakeem Olijuwan, or the rueful and comic concept of the Mexican Manana, Waters always engages her subjects with plenty of wit and verve.
