Athens Word of Mouth - Athens GA Poetry: "To Go to Patagonia" - Bob Ambrose

http://www.athenswordofmouth.com/2015/05/to-go-to-patagonia-bob-ambrose.html

To Go to Patagonia" - Bob Ambrose. To Go to Patagonia" - Bob Ambrose. Just past the point of perception. And pass into knowing. Gradual as gray dawn. Grows from blue-black nights. To gentle winter days in Georgia. Singing frost and white camellia,. Silver age and pale regret:. You’ll never go to Patagonia. Never trek the tortured plain. To breathe the bracing air of Andes. Blowing off the icy sea. You’ll never see auroras dance. Unless by chance coronas leap. And sear the Southern sky with fire. OPEN POE...

Artemis" - Gregory de Rocher. Artemis" - Gregory de Rocher. At dusk she rises, ghost-like, from beyond the forest. Ascending, slow to assume full posture. Yet all the while hunting, she studies for hours. The rising tides and the restless movements of men,. Before quitting her vigil. She then regains her couch, concealing. Herself, and all she observed, from the hungry eye of Apollo. And the ever-curious Morning Star. The hunt. The illustration is a d. Etail of a vase. Labels: gregory de rocher. Shafkat ...

The Sound of Time (for Bob Ambrose)" - David Noah. The Sound of Time (for Bob Ambrose)" - David Noah. Seconds keen as they trickle through fingers. Minutes sound like rain, each one a lone drop. Plopping on earth or flesh until the mob. Arrives, overthrowing an afternoon. With the noise of a million tiny boots. Hours knock and turn away like polite. Missionaries canvassing every door. Impossible not to listen unless. We can attend to what never passes,. What never shakes the air. The unceasing. He lifts ...

The Girl's Guava Tree" - Bob Ambrose. The Girl's Guava Tree" - Bob Ambrose. And the good earth sustains. Thanks to the El Rural Centro Metodista. Mirador, Costa Rica. March 10, 2010; revised March 30, 2015. Beyond the gravel-pocked streets. Lined with cinder-block shops. Capped with corrugated tin. Christened in the sweat of strangers. Called from a far land. Past the worn-out weed field. Trampled by children to dusty flat. Where rough tracks fork left. Below fenced hills of cane and cattle. Like an unmo...
