Poems of recollection and elegy commingle and conjoin with poems which address larger matters of historical and ecological import. The subjects of extinction and apocalypse figure prominently and obsessively in these pages, both in short lyrics and in several lengthy sequences. The poems also evidence the mastery of technique for which Wojahn is renowned, whether he is writing in fixed forms or in free verse. For the Scribe is the most ambitious and searching collection thus far from a poet who has been a named finalist for the Pulitzer Prize in poetry, winner of the Lenore Marshall Prize from the Academy of American Poets, the O.B. Hardison Award from the Folger Shakespeare Library, and the William Carlos Williams Book Award. 505 00 $t Ode to FOXP2. $t Extinction event : a cache of photos of the last ivory-billed woodpecker -- $t Extinction event : two-minute film of the last Tasmanian tiger -- $t Atahulpa -- $t Bivalve -- $t Briefe historie of the noose in the colonie of Virginia -- $t Give orange me give eat orange me eat orange give me eat orange give me you -- $t Canis familiarus -- $t Elegy : robot folding laundry -- $t Absolute rhythm -- $t For the scribe Gar, Una of Uruk, 3,000 BC -- $t Nineteen eleven blues -- $t Extinction event : decoy birds -- $t Study skins -- $t Sinatra : the concert at Pompeii, 1991 -- $t Body politic : to Ezra Pound in Purgatory -- $t Anniversary poem -- $t Extinction event : Catawba cotton mill, 1908 -- $t In the attic -- $t Chalk line -- $t Ichor -- $t Concerning Pan -- $t Extinction event : the Book of Revelation as interpreted by Link Wray -- $t Occupy -- $t Watching Fox News on the holiday of Martin Luther King Jr. -- $t Jefferson composing his Bible -- $t Sclera -- $t Lorine Niedecker : the only recording, 1970 -- $t Ode to FOXP2. 650 0 $a American poetry $y 21st century. 830 0 $a Pitt poetry series. 941 $a 2 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20180203014213.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20170907010421.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=1322E39E2FC611E7A3652FCCDAD10320 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
