Full Worm Moon by Julie L. Moore Pdf

Like The Old Farmer's Almanac chronicles the cycles of sun, moon, stars, and planets, Full Worm Moon explores the profound transitions from promise to loss, depicting one woman's endeavor to "move into a third space / hospitable for another life / more rare, more raw." In particular, Julie L. Moore tracks the phases of a long marriage's brutal disintegration, a year as turbulent as the wind that uproots a birch tree, leaving it "prostrate on the ground / like one spouse pleading / with the other not to leave." Every month's full moon weaves through seasons of vicissitude, creating a new vocabulary for solitude without loneliness and endurance without passivity. As they delve into divorce's myriad aftershocks, Moore's poems remain intelligent and intimate; amid their stunning landscapes emerge both beauty and violence as well as a host of memorable characters: Milton and Monet, Charon and Cicero, Benedictine monks and Cooper's Hawks, clueless administrators and clever students, an oblivious weatherman and a philosophical neighbor. All are welcome, and in her lyrical, trustworthy voice, Moore guides us, with our "longing / for answered prayer," to press on and "practice . . . / anything but resignation."

Bonfire Opera by Danusha Lameris Pdf

Winner, 2021 Northern California Book Award Finalist, 2021 Patterson Poetry Prize Sometimes the most compelling landscapes are the ones where worlds collide: where a desert meets the sea, a civilization, no-man’s land. Here in Bonfire Opera, grief and Eros grapple in the same domain. A bullet-hole through the heart, a house full of ripe persimmons, a ghost in a garden. Coyotes cry out on the hill, and lovers find themselves kissing, “bee-stung, drunk” in the middle of road. Here, the dust is holy, as is the dark, unknown. These are poems that praise the impossible, wild world, finding beauty in its wake.
