David Franks: Walkabout…

Dec 4, 2009 8:05 PM

After you've finished here, you may like to hear this folk-carol on myspace...
Poem 230 of 230, WalkaboutsVerse
(see my blog for details): 
CHRISTMAS SUNG SIMPLY

As gospellers have said,
Beneath signalling skies,
On land dusty to tread,
A trough in a stable
Was the strawy first-bed
Of a divine baby -
The forgiving Godhead.

A season for new hope -
There then and here now;
The yuletide of goodwill -
There then and here now.

In respect of this chance,
Beneath bright or dark skies,
Faith's the star that we glance
Attending Christ's churches
And trying to enhance,
With singing and ritual,
Our God-loving stance.

A...

SONETTO XXI

Veder poteste, quando vi scontrai,
Quello pauroso spirito d' Amore,
Lo qual suol apparer quand' uom si more,
Che in altra guisa non si vede mai.

Egli mi fu sì presso, che pensai,
Ch' egli ancidesse il mio dolente core.
Allor si mise nel morto colore
L'anima trista in voler tragger guai.

Ma poi si tenne quando vide uscire
Da gli occhi vostri un lume di mercede,
Che porse dentro al cor una dolcezza.

E quel sottile spirito che vede,
Soccorse gli altri, che credean morire
Gravati d'angosciossa debolezza.

—Guido Cavalcanti

Thanks for the add! I really appreciate your company. Hell, without New Directions, how would classic works that are too controversial to reprint and new works that break new ground ever get printed? Who else would print Pound's Cantos or Celine's Journey to the End of the Night? I'd be lost in literature without you guys, so keep up the good work.

Hello, New Directions. Directing your attention to “Potato I Have” at ELIMAE. It’s a derived text that tracks Joyce’s use of the potato - a talisman for Bloom - in Ulysses.

FORGETTING



Let me remember only the starry explosion of
our limbed violence. Let me see the faint
reflection on my thighs, through the windowpane
of stockings, the blue-green bruise of
your bite. Let me wear the sweater
you bought to match those marks
day after day until
it falls to ruin. Let me fall
one more time into our night
before I set it away
away
like a skein of white silk ribbon, thrown
and unfurling in the blue-black sky. Let me call
myself, “girl.” Your voice
is silence. Your voice
is the color of birds in mean flocks
over the fields: a fast shadow, passing. Let me
catch the ribbons falling from the sky and bind
my wings tight. Erase this freedom, keep me
bound in ecstasy. I do not want to fly.
Constrain me in sorrow’s flaxen destruction.
Let me have courage enough for your
absence. Let me adore
everything: every golden corner of your
quiet soul, every splintered moment of your
angry heart, let me take the palm prints
from your gut and devour their slap-shaped wounds
like so much memory candy, let me adore
each child you ever longed for and girl you
ever loved. Let me adore all of you
the way I have for so many days. Let me.
I’m soon to forget.

"My final trust comes softly like a miracle in this city of a mild a wistful prayer.
The needful anger rushes for the burst of your blossoming minuet as the minutes grow impatient and hostile for my private aching moonlight that calls out the beauty of your name." -Devon Wendell
