Half Wild: Poems (Walt Whitman Award of the Academy of American Poets)

Mary Rose O'Reilley

4.9/5 (18406 ratings)

Description:Half Wild is spiritual biography wound backwards, spiraling into the world rather than out of it. Though it reflects on the paradoxes of our violent times, Mary Rose O'Reilley's collection hangs on to life like the bee up to his hips in love who will fall asleep in the snow and wake up still kissing his flower. In O'Reilley's poems, human, animal, and mineral creations interpenetrate and share surreal conversation -- even stones exchange stories of hot times in the magma and animals are listened to intently. Here sacred inquiry is grounded in a passion for the natural world, resolving questions through lyric, erotic, and sensual response. The poems of Half Wild revel in desire and longing as instruments of theological critique. You were the part of me that gave itself to death. Sometimes I dream of eyes, sealed with a membrane of unknowing like a mystic's veil, that open to my glance without surprise. Sometimes I dream of perfect understanding. Sometimes I snatch at hands that seem to seek as through a caul. Sometimes I waken With an infant's shriek. -- from TwinWe have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
