New Year’s, A Short Pantoum, by Greg Williamson

The sunlight was falling. A part Played out in the deep snow. We were all there. At the start We knew how the year would go,

Played out in the deep snow. The sunlight was falling apart. We knew how the year would go. We were all there at the start.

Reading: Outbound by Greg Williamson

Greg Williamson (b. 1964) is known for his ‘double exposure’, a technique where poems can be read in multiple ways. I approach his verse without any theoretical pre-study though, the same way I would approach life. The following poem is beautifully crafted, it holds the lyricism of yore in a floating frame of free existentialist verse: Outbound We live life forwards and think about it backwards…

వార్షిక ఆదాయాలు… గ్రెగ్ విలియమ్ సన్, అమెరికను కవి

ఈ పద్యంలో చెప్పిన కుర్రాడు ఎవరో కాదు: నేనూ, మీరూ, మనమందరమూను. అకస్మాత్తుగా మనకి తెలియని ఏదో చోటునుండి అదృష్టం కలిసివచ్చి లాభపడాలని అంతరాంతరాల్లో ఆశపడుతూ ఉండే మన మనఃప్రవృత్తిని బాగా పట్టిచూపించిన వ్యంగ్య కవిత ఇది. *** డబ్బు చెట్లకి కాస్తే అప్పుడెంత ఆనందంగా ఉంటుంది! పిల్లలు డబ్బులో పొర్లుతారు తండ్రులు ఊడ్చి తెచ్చి పడేస్తుంటారు. చెట్లకొమ్మల్లో ఉన్న పెట్టుబడులు పెద్ద లాభాలు ఆర్జిస్తుంటాయి చెట్లు…

And captured in this rapturous embrace which has so many tears inside of it.

III. Visiting Couple Kissing and Halved Onion

Unjustly I've imposed upon my friends This? It's an onion that's been cut in half When they're (how shall I say?) making amends Right in the middle of the photograph After a night of words, and here they stand Less like those pure, textbook transparencies Wrapped up in one another, hand in hand, Than layered and opaque identities, An arm around a shoulder, face to face, Developed in the dark to this full kit And captured in this rapturous embrace. Which has so many tears inside of it. -Greg Williamson

New Year's: A Short Pantoum

The sunlight was falling. A part

Played out in the deep snow.

We were all there. At the start

We knew how the year would go,

Played out in the deep snow.

The sunlight was falling apart.

We knew how the year would go.

We were all there at the start.
