Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Hawthorne, and Other Poems Hawthorne. Harp of New England song, That even in slumber tremblest with the touch Of poets who like the four winds from thee waken All harmonies that to thy strings belong, - Say, wilt thou blame the younger hands too much Which from thy laurelled resting-place have taken Thee, crowned-one, in their hold? There is a name Should quicken thee! No carol Hawthorne sang, Yet his articulate spirit, like thine own, Made answer, quick as flame, To each breath of the shore from which he sprang, And prose like his was poesy's high tone.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new collection from a poet who “writes with scrupulous and merciful passion about every kind of relatedness—family, place, politics, and wildlife” (W. S. Piero) In her fifth book of poems, Stairway to Heaven, Alison Hawthorne Deming explores dimensions of grief and renewal after losing her brother and mother. Grounded in her communion with nature and place, she finds even in Death Valley, that most stark of landscapes, a spirit of inventiveness that animates the ground we walk on. From the cave art of Chauvet to the futuristic habitat of Biosphere 2, that inventiveness becomes consolation for losses in family and nature, a means to build again a sense of self and world in the face of devastating loss.

They buried our old flag tauntingly, But the taunts soon found a grave, While the old broad stripes in triumph rose The Union strong to save. They buried our old flag down south, And raised a rebel one. It brought them neither power nor joy, --Desolation with it came. THE MERRIMAC THE Merrimac, we'll not deny, We've always been afraid of, For, you know, she's iron bound, And mischief she is made of. We'll not deny we've watched her close. She's a foe to be afraid of, And very like we soon shall know If good metal she is made of. She boasts a coat both strong and true, She looks so, as she steams up, But Ericsson, before she thinks, May neatly rip her seams up. The first day's wear, she showed weak spots. The Monitor poked her nose through. She's patched the rents, and out again With a sharp, steel, pointed bow, too. A bow like a two-edged sword To cut our ships asunder, But if they do I think they'll hear Some startling claps of thunder. WAR SONG REAT and small, one and all, I'll sing a song the whole day long--A song of victory. Jeff in wisdom thought he'd planned This great nation's fall. Now listen, listen unto me, Listen one and all. You see we're just as upright as When he made the boast That he would sit in Washington. And now we'll drink a toast: Here's hoping, Jeff, that you may see You never knowed enough To lick the North, to hurt her much, --Her hide is hard and tough; Her head's too full of wisdom; Her arms are far too long; She sets her feet too firmly down; Her sinews are too strong. Old Jeff, look out, you'll hurt yourself. You're on a rotten stump. If you don't get directly down, Your head will get a bump. Listen unto me. You know a man will often try To knock another down. His feet slip up, and..

  • ISBN : 1571318992
  • Pages : 273 pages

Download or read book Zoologies written by Alison Hawthorne Deming and published by Milkweed Editions. This book was released on 2014-09-22 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Beautifully written essays” on animals, “the real and mythological, the ordinary and the exotic, the wild and the domesticated” (Publishers Weekly). Humans were surrounded by other animals from the beginning of time: they were food, clothes, adversaries, companions, jokes, and gods. And yet, our companions in evolution are leaving the world—both as physical beings and spiritual symbols—and not returning. In this collection of linked essays, Alison Hawthorne Deming examines what the disappearance of animals means for human imagination and existence. Moving from mammoth hunts to dying house cats, she explores profound questions about what it means to be animal. What is inherent in animals that both leads us to destroy and leads us toward peace? As human animals, how does art both define us as a species and how does it emerge primarily from our relationship with other species? The reader emerges with a transformed sense of how the living world around us has defined and continues to define us in a powerful way. “Beautifully written essays on animal and human behavior and biology . . . highly recommended for lovers of words and nature.” —Publishers Weekly “Human beings live in an age in which industrialization and mass extinction are facts of life. But as Deming suggests in this collection, the more people denude the planet of animals, the more diminished they become in spirit . . . Eloquent, sensitive and astute.” —Kirkus Reviews “Serpentine intellect and wry humor.” —Booklist
