Here Collins writes about his trademark themes of nature, animals, poetry, mortality, absurdity, and love--all in a handful of lines. Neither Haiku nor limerick, and certainly not a gimmick, the small poem pushes to an extreme poetry's famed power to condense emotional and conceptual content into small spaces. Taken together the more than 125 new poems of Musical Chairs show one of our greatest poets channeling his unique voice into a new phase of his luminous career"-- $c Provided by publisher. 941 $a 1 952 $l TDPH826 $d 20240402010944.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=534E4E28F0B611EE96A0B47C3BECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
