by Anthony Piccione
American Poets Continuum Series
In the tradition
of Pablo Neruda, Robert Bly and James Wright, Anthony Piccione
writes rich, imagistic poems that jar the reader with their brilliant
simplicity. Piccione is less concerned with public imagery and
more with the human psyche, with how the unconscious can surface
and lead us to discoveries in language that sustain us. Many of
the poems find passage through the woods and fields surrounding
the author's cabin in rural Prattsburgh, New York, near Keuka
Lake. The book's lead poem begins, "It's time to start feeling
our way again. We / can call each thing its own sweet secret desire."
Small Wind Prayer
What's
holy, then, sudden laughing
or
the good sneeze? It all depends,
some
say, on who disappears,
and
who hangs back!
