Sunday, July 19, 2015. Last Psalm at Sea Level. Barrow Street Press, 2014). Reviewed by Andrew Haley. In Last Psalm at Sea Level. Meg Day gives us poems that quake with mutability. The concrete things—bodies, shadows, landscapes, and wounds—merge not in surreality or the changing of masks, but in an oceanic wholeness. “As if one is a shadow stitched to the other, / they sit, knees bent and parted, cradled in the basin / of the clawfoot, her belly to his spine.”. 8230;] the man slid the package.

Sunday, December 8, 2013. The Sound of Sugar.Erica Dawson. When someone says, I’m hopping on the train. I see that person bouncing toward the train,. And bouncing like a crack-addled rabbit. When I stand on the platform, James Brown yells,. Let’s count it off, let’s take it to the bridge. And Gladys’s Pips woo woo their way to Georgia. When I consider jump. I think of all.

And her neck, slightly untuned, does it plead? To know how best to begin to pursue her. But I was mainly interested in scoring then,. Notes on Exile and Other Poems.
