What's been said about Conflicted Light:
| "Dancing Bear’s Conflicted
Light comes from a ‘scarred and nicked lyre,’ a voice nimble and anxious
and loving that comforts us while we’re ‘waiting for a sign.’ An excellent
collection.” —Terese Svoboda

"Using myth, politics, nature, and
art, J.P. Dancing Bear asks questions that can only be asked through poetry. These
accomplished and various poems feature sure-handed lines and vivid images. J.P. Dancing
Bear has an ear for 'the inner tones of the world' and an eye that sees 'aspens turning
into an imitation of fire' and 'bullfrog stars hunger[ing] for crickets.' Conflicted
Light reveals the vitality of contemporary American verse. " —Natasha Sajé
