These essays trace the poet's calling to sources in birdsong and sacrifice, asking, "Must a woman be sentenced to endless night for a poet to be born?" From the myth of Orpheus and Eurydice to the death of the poet's mother, Moxley explores the losses that underlie poetry, and in turn, poetry's use as a measure for living."-- $c Amazon. 505 00 $t A foreign song. $t Blast-beruffled -- $t Corpse fires -- $t School for song -- $t Demi-bird -- $t My love was a feather -- $t The weariness, the fever, and the fret -- $t Philomela querens -- $t Some are born to endless night -- $t Demon or bird! -- $t The all-day bird -- $t Easy as a star -- $t Dove self -- $t Emile -- $t In service -- $t The swifts -- $t Pigeon -- $t No more she mourns -- $t Bird of paradise -- $t Bourdeaux colloquy -- $t On the street where you live -- $t My human soul -- $t Woman or swan -- $t Luckily for us -- $t Max the Birdman -- $t The sparrow -- $t Chet -- $t Vivacious, virginal, and beautiful day -- $t A foreign song. 600 10 $a Moxley, Jennifer, $d 1964- 650 0 $a Poetry $x History and criticism. 941 $a 3 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117023815.0 952 $l FXPH314 $d 20221011011137.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20220202015640.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=06ED1BA43BA511EC87B0DC564EECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
