Hudson Review

I have two translations of poems by Jacques Réda in the latest issue (Winter 2009, vol. LXI, no. 4) of the Hudson Review: "The Inspection" and "Lament of the Old Pole."

"Lament of the Old Pole" will be on Poetry Daily next Wednesday, February 18.

The Nomoi

if you are sleepy and forget a verse
it is the song that dozed,
if you rush the ending
the melody was impatient . . .
