Because in the one posted here, a scene is played out, and it relies on visuals & imagery. It's relatively simple & it works well. "At 25" is a poem of address, where the speaker is talking to someone, but letting us, the readers, listen in -- & the poet has less control of his material, and I'm not sure that I'm able to follow some of the transitions between the ideas in the poem. The clearest part of the poem is, again, a visual moment: the memory of the child's birth, and then holding him while he squalls with rage. That's Stephen's strength, rather than the harangue. (Though some people do like poetry when it is one long harangue, and there's a long tradition of that.)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25249736.post-1151708937724665492006-07-01T00:08:00.000+01:002006-07-01T00:08:00.000+01:00Nice Anon & BPB: It's up at the IHJ forum, but tha...Nice Anon & BPB: It's up at the IHJ forum, but thank you.

But I'm pretty sure that Mr. Gyllenhaal and Cantara would be amenable to that, wouldn't they?

I'm glad to get a sense of what the man is like, in person. I wonder who's the distributor for his publisher's books? Is it SPD or someplace else? In other words, is it useless to look for it at the St. Mark's Bookshop or someplace like that? I wish the Gotham was still there. They had a great poetry section.<BR/><BR/>Was poor Mary Gordon quite eclipsed in all the uproar? I just picked up "Spending" over the winter & finally read it, a few weeks ago, as I'm getting slowly through my summer "to be read" stack of books. Wonderfully erotic. If I cast Jake in the part of "B," the male sex object, and me as the female painter, the book works even better. (But Jake's too young to be "B," unfortunately.)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25249736.post-1151609989968078302006-06-29T20:39:00.000+01:002006-06-29T20:39:00.000+01:00wbtgirl, you're a GODDESS!
