Yeats died Saturday in France.

May you find help from action figures I keep.
May you find them in the top drawer
And bring them out while you sleep
And I welcome darkness--

May these nightdolls help you,
When every... (Read full poem)

I heard it once, smoothed-out
by gallons of coffee,
chest husking like a plow
and pulled it into a basement.

was I so hungry I could eat at the roots of it,
and lay down like a... (Read full poem)

Read 524 times on American Poems.
Lately I've sat here afternoons
just listening to the
gluttonous newsmen argue

their wives and kids
then spirit off to Mexico.
My life's knee-deep
in fathers, embedded
in my own shaky tenor,
and though mine's as good as... (Read full poem)

The way the dog trots out the front door
every morning
without a hat or an umbrella,
without any money
or the keys to her doghouse
never fails to fill the saucer of my heart
with milky admiration.
Who provides a finer example
of a life without... (Read full poem)

Soon I'll hear your voices, people,
and you'll sound like Donald Duck.
I'll hear every car horn honk,
every plink and plunk and plonk.
And you'll sound like Donald Duck--
one voice, indistinguishable, under God.
Every plink and plunk and... (Read full poem)

In slack times visit I the violent dead

more, beat on the floor,
where Bhain is... (Read full poem)

Don't tell a camel about need and want.
Look at the big lips
pursed
in perpetual kiss,
the dangerous lashes
of a born coquette.
The camel is an animal
grateful for less.
It keeps to itself
the hidden spring choked with grass,
the sharpest... (Read full poem)

Baudelaire considers you his brother,

Let's agree that the night is a blank canvas, a station

campfires, reading by a lamp—are all
basically an homage to the day.... (Read full poem)

waiting to stay home from football games.
The arches are empty clear to the sky.
