 Poemcrazy
is
the poetic analog to Anne Lamott's
Bird by Bird or Natalie Goldberg's
Writing Down the Bones,
two classic works on how to forget that you "can't write" and just start
the pen moving. Susan Wooldridge is a swimming instructor in the wide
ocean of language, encouraging us to move ever farther from the shore,
dive deep, and dance on the waves. |
A Poetry Handbook This slender guide by
Mary Oliver deserves a place on the
shelves of any budding poet. In clear, accessible prose, Oliver (winner of both
the Pulitzer Prize and the National Book Award for poetry) arms the reader with
an understanding of the technical aspects of poetry writing. Her lessons on
sound, line (length, meter, breaks), poetic forms, tone, imagery, and revision
are illustrated by a handful of wonderful poems. What could have been a dry
account is infused throughout with Oliver's passion for her subject, which she
describes as "a kind of possible love affair between something like the heart
(that courageous but also shy factory of emotion) and the learned skills of the
conscious mind." One comes away from this volume feeling both empowered and
daunted. Writing poetry is good, hard work.

Selected Poems
The Final Movie by Michael Levy
In the end
all the good guys
and
all the bad guys
Die
The only object left
on the surface of planet earth
is an old billboard
with letters missing
that reads;
Watch — Space
For All Future Attractions
And Sequels
Silence is Go---n?
*******************
The Seminar by Michael Levy
The financial adviser
was a man in his late seventies
He spluttered, botched and muddled
his way through a one hour seminar
The senile audience applauded
his presentation
They said they would definitely
let him invest their money
Which goes to prove
Stupidity sells.
*************
Question by Michael Levy
They asked me;
do you make a living
via your composing-
by your poetry?
I answered;
Composing is life-
Poetry is living!
***********
Just thoughts by Michael Levy.
The cowboy builder
Now retired
Could not get an erection!
***************
The doctor said
He died of natural causes
Age thirty-five?
**************
What a performance
Sex beneath the Big Top
Carnival knowledge
***************
What's In A Name? By Michael Levy.
The Stock Exchange,
Straddled with Bulls, Bears and Stags,
A faux farmhouse,
Mask the... pen and ink!
Time and money to invest,
What's the option?
Perhaps a change of name..........
The Rascal House?
Call; for a pastrami-on-rye
Put; on plenty of ketchup and mustard
Order executed and ful-filled
**************
