Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Wife of Leon, and Other Poems These poems were written by the authors to while away time, amuse themselves, and gratify their taste for poetry; Without the remotest intention of ever publishing them. Such was their horror and dread of appearing as authors, that they persevered in their determination, al though partial friends and many of our most distinguished poets pronounced them to have much merit and excellence. With these considerations, and a wish to gratify a parent to whom they could refuse nothing, they have no longer felt.

Download or read book Zeppo s First Wife written by Gail Mazur and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2010-04-15 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: from Enormously Sad . . . Sad, so sad-compared to what? To your earlier more oblivious state? It never was oblivious enough- always those presentiments of sadness prickling the limbic. Now a voice says, Get outside yourself, go walk on the flats. The tide's gone out— but your little metal detector will detect little metallic coins of enormous sadness in the teeming wet sand, and then, the tide will come back, erasing, cleansing! And you, standing there in the salty scouring air- will you still be enormously sad, While the other world, outside your tiny purview, struck by iron, reels? World of intentional iron, pure savage organized iron of the world, it hasn't the time that you have for your puny enormous sadness. Widely acclaimed for expanding the stylistic boundaries of both the narrative and meditative lyric, Gail Mazur’s poetry crackles with verbal invention as she confronts the inevitable upheavals of a lived life. Zeppo’s First Wife, which includes excerpts from Mazur’s four previous books, as well as twenty-two new poems, is epitomized by the worldly longing of the title poem, with its searching poignancy and comic bravura. Mazur’s explorations of “this fallen world, this loony world” are deeply moving acts of empathy by a singular moral sensibility—evident from the earliest poem included here, the much-anthologized “Baseball,” a stunning bird’s-eye view of human foibles and passions. Clear-eyed, full of paradoxical griefs and appetites, her poems brave the most urgent subjects—from the fraught luscious Eden of the ballpark, to the fragility of our closest human ties, to the implications for America in a world where power and war are cataclysmic for the strong as well as the weak.

Dost mind thee of that day he lisped a word, - The tender word oi Mother - and content He clasped his arms around thy neck, sinking His head within the soft curve of thy chin; And thou, supreme in thy young Motherhood Didst call. Theophilus, already he Has learned the trick of nestling close to me As I to thee! I wonder if he knows The heart-beats throbbing 'gainst his own, as I Do thine? - Come, lay thy head here now, - where thou Canst feel my pulses beating while I speak; For I have that to say which thou must hear!

Download or read book The First Poems in English written by Michael Alexander and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 2008-05-29 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This selection of the earliest poems in English comprises works from an age in which verse was not written down, but recited aloud and remembered. Heroic poems celebrate courage, loyalty and strength, in excerpts from Beowulf and in The Battle of Brunanburgh, depicting King Athelstan’s defeat of his northern enemies in 937 AD, while The Wanderer and The Seafarer reflect on exile, loss and destiny. The Gnomic Verses are proverbs on the natural order of life, and the Exeter Riddles are witty linguistic puzzles. Love elegies include emotional speeches from an abandoned wife and separated lovers, and devotional poems include a vision of Christ’s cross in The Dream of the Rood, and Caedmon’s Hymn, perhaps the oldest poem in English, speaking in praise of God.
