Excerpts from Four Verse Letters and Other Poems

3/28/2019

As I was getting ready for my trip to New York, to deliver a poetry reading sponsored by the University Bookman (see my calendar of events page), I noticed that Dappled Things has released its new issue online, wherein three of my poems appear.

"The Imaginary Chapel" and "In the Cry Room" are excerpted from Some Permanent Things Second Edition, Revised and Expanded.  They are small selections from my longer sequence, "Four Verse Letters."  Have a look by clicking the issue cover at left.  And, ahem, you may even find yourself moved to pick up a copy of the Second Edition.

Dappled Things also includes "On a Rain Barrel," which is part of my ongoing "All Things" series, a series that will be collected in my next full-length collection, On the New Physics (I note rather prematurely, as I am keeping it embargoed for another three years).

I have included a link to the whole table of contents of the new issue, not only to make it easier to access any of the three poems, but also because the whole issue is really terrific.  Maryann Corbett's poems are, per usual, models of excellence.
