Book Description
Rebel doves in kite formation num’rous fly. Above Horus Way line, Thoth’s envoys darken lunar tides. A flock of passenger pigeons transformed military messages into poems on what they saw between watchtowers on the Way of Horus and Tanis. Over the course of lunar cycles, doves report on the everyday magic and seasonal sadness and chaos of Ancient Egypt from a bird’s eye view. Sylvia flew the kite of their formation and directed it in response to the shock of revolution. These are poems composed and transported along ancient Egypt’s communication line by rebel doves.
I Have a Poem the Size of the Moon
Author: Matt Mason
Publisher: Stephen F. Austin University Press
ISBN: 9781622889020
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 90
Book Description
I Have A Poem The Size Of The Moon is a book of poems about Nebraska. Not cornfields, not cows: Cities, highways, long drives and the political conversations simmering. Between Meteors and Fireflies In a drought year, corn stubble bends into Headlines: "Farmers pray for rain." Tumbleweeds take time to harmonize and choreograph, somewhere between meteors and fireflies. The grocery sells blueberries all year round, but the charge card feels heavy as a refrigerator once you slip it from the wallet. You don't end up buying the magazines, just browse. It's a tow truck, doorbell button, garbage disposal broke summer: no real difference between a silo and a paper sack, it seems. And in the hallway, light glows from under the bathroom door.
