Poetry. Translation. Asian Studies. Major sequence translated from the Chinese by the author with well-known younger writer, Eleni Sikenianos. VERSES ON BIRD, to borrow Pound's phrase, is a coherent splendor: Where can we find enough names to name all these things in front of our eyes?/ Or enough adjectives to modify all these adjectives?/ Even after the shower has stripped the last bit of pink off the peonies/ There are still these unknown long and tiny pale violet downward curving bell-shaped clusters/ Held up by those wide and humble striped sheaves, / Remnants of a pillar cup, cracked cement, collapsed basketball net hanging mid-air. Perfectbound chapbook. Also available as part of an 8 book set for $21. Please see listing under Jensen/Daniels set
