Read 10910 times on American Poems.
The light along the hills in the morning
comes down slowly, naming the trees
white, then coasting the ground for stones to nominate.

This poem is not addressed to you.
You may come into it briefly,
But no one will find you here, no one.
You will have changed before the poem will.
Even while you sit there, unmovable,
You have begun to vanish. And it does no matter.
The poem will... (Read full poem)

in the women's tent
how the moon when she rises

they wear strange hands
they walk through the... (Read full poem)

I ask them to take a poem
and hold it up to the light
like a color slide
or press an ear against its hive.
I say drop a mouse into a poem
and watch him probe his way out,
or walk inside the poem's room
and feel the walls for a light switch.

Read 8330 times on American Poems.
A poem should be palpable and mute
As a globed fruit,
Dumb
As old medallions to the thumb,
Silent as the sleeve-worn stone
Of casement ledges where the moss has grown--
A poem should be wordless
As the flight of birds.

Words of a poem should be glass
But glass so simple-subtle its shape
Is nothing but the shape of what it holds.

In the morning, when it was raining,
Then the birds were hectic and loudy;
Through all the reign is fall's entertaining;
Their singing was erratic and full of disorder:
They did not remember the summer blue
Or the orange of June. They did not think... (Read full poem)

I know you are reading this poem
late, before leaving your office

My poem would eat nothing.
I tried giving it water
but it said no,
worrying me.
Day after day,
I held it up to the llight,
turning it over,
but it only pressed its lips
more tightly together.
It grew sullen, like a toad

A sunny day's complete Poussiniana
Divide it from itself. It is this or that

A fruit for pewter, thorned and palmed and blue,
To be served by men of ice.

Long Pont's apparitional
this warm spring morning,
the strand a blur of sandy light,
and the square white

To end up alone
in a tomb of a room
without cigarettes
or wine--
just a lightbulb
and a potbelly,
grayhaired,
and glad to have
the room.

plumbers, doctors,
newsboys,... (Read full poem)
