Selected poems dylan thomas The fountains are dry and the roses over Incense of death Your day approaches The pears fatten like little Buddhas A blue mist is dragging the lake You move through the era of fishes The smug centuries of the pig Head toe and finger Come clear of the shadow History Nourishes these broken fluting s These crowns of acanthus And the crow settles her garments You inherit white heather a bee s wing Two suicides the family wolves Hours of blankness Some hard stars Already yellow the heavens The spider on its own string Crosses the lake The worms Quit their usual habitations The small birds converge converge With their gifts to a difficult borning 2008 1381 215 9646235514 20 1391 203 9789647703949 22 04 1399 05 02 1401 9780571135868 Rarely have the tortuous dimensions of life lived against the grain of existence been so wittily so achingly so stingingly and yet economically sewn together and with lyrical needles threaded to an anomic precision and harrowing spartanism alternately languid and feral and yet fully alive and alight in the face of despair and darkness It s as if the viscous attar of sexuality and relationships gender bruises mental states and discomfits and deteriorations temporal and spatial stretching and crushing the particulate radioactivity of pain and pleasure and their twinned allure to the sly and greasy promises of death were all cornered captured and compressed within fragments of sentence and phrase and then painted and lacquered such that they stood apart but connected as beads and gewgaws of sparkling sometimes severe colour and form Hurt in short hops Pain bled thin and patched with bows and sequins Primal emotions as cutlets or cubed and spaced like the stars Hardly an easy or benignant experience and one that pushes you away readily than admits you within but nonetheless starkly beautiful in sudden stabs or lathed poses and palpably resonant to those accustomed to being cut and or doing the cutting. Poetry Selected poems One thing the Faber and Faber edition that I own does not contain the sublimely taut Lady Lazarus one of her most effective and affective poems but it s made up for with having introduced me to the likes of Suicide off Egg Rock Insomniac Finisterre and Edge 9780571135868 Actual rating 4. Gulzar selected poems book pdf I attempted to space these poems out and still tore through them in three days Plath s words speak to my soul She writes like she is brushing against an open wound with her pen and I am helpless to feel anything but an echo of this ache reverberate inside me.
