Produktinformationen "Odessa"
Poetry $16Near OdessaNear the end of summer.Wheatfield with lark. With swift,longspur, and sparrow. I see the birdsopening tails and wingsabove grassesand hidden nests.Soybeans with bells, yellowing, greentassels of corn, geeseagain and again.I see the birdsbut wind takes all the sound.Small towns are reduced to chains or storefronts,boarded-up.Almost to the river called a lake, gray stones of water,dammed, white-capped, hingebetween states.Some fields are so gold they seem to be singing.The gold fields lie down, flat but not empty,and will be harvested later with blades.Near OdessaI come to a place where the end is beginning.Where the light is absolute, it rises.Patricia Kirkpatrick is the author of Century's Road, as well as several chapbooks of poetry. Her work has appeared widely in journals, including Poetry, Prairie Schooner, Threepenny Review, and Antioch Review, and in several anthologies, among them She Walks in Beauty: A Woman's Journey Through Poems, edited by Caroline Kennedy. Kirkpatrick lives in Saint Paul, Minnesota.
