This is a terrific little collected volume of a wonderful poet, originally from my hometown. The book was even better when I could find videos of her readings online. ( ) The Egg Boiler by Gwendolyn Brooks "Being you, you cut your poetry from wood. The boiling of an egg is heavy art. You come upon it as an artist should, With rich-eyed passion, and with straining heart. We fools, we cut our poems out of air. Night color, wind soprano, and such stuff. And sometimes weightlessness is much to bear. You mock it, though, you name it Not Enough. The egg, spooned gently to the avid pan, And left the strick three minute, or the four, Is your Enough and art for any man. We fools give courteous ear----then cut some more, Shaping a gorgeous Nothingness from cloud. You watch us, eat your egg, and laugh aloud." nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
