Newsletter Fall 1998 Vol. 20 No. 1 A.R.Ammons Storm Branches broken, the clean meat at the branch knot turned out white, traveled by cleared white light: certain consequences are irreversible, arrangements lost to death's and black's scavenging the sweet grain: well but weakness went sacrificed to the wind and the trees, clarified, compress rootstrength into remaining flesh and the leaves that shake in the aftermath shake in a safe, tested place. Elegy for a Jet Pilot The blast skims over the string of takeoff lights and relinquishing place and time lofts to separation: the plume, rose sliver, grows across the high-lit evening sky: by this Mays Landing creek shot pinecones, skinned huckleberry bush, laurel swaths define an unbelievably particular stop. Utensil How does the pot pray: wash me, so I gleam? prays, crack my enamel: let the rust in. Runoff By the highway the stream downslope could hardly clear itself through rubbish and slime but by that resistance gained a cutting depth equal to its breadth and so had means to muscle into ripples and spill over angled shelves: and so went on down in a long curve, responsively slow to the

A. R. Ammons Poetics I look for the way things will turn out spiralling from a center, the shape things will take to come forth in so that the birch tree white touched black at branches will stand out wind-glittering totally its apparent self: I look for the forms things want to come as from what black wells of possibility, how a thing will unfold: not the shape on paper though that, too but the uninterfering means on paper: not so much looking for the shape as being available to any shape that may be summoning itself through me from the self not mine but ours.

A. R. Ammons, 1926-2001 Considered a premier American poet of the 20th century, A. R. Ammons's transcendentalist works which contemplated nature and man's place in it had roots in his service during World War II. A recipient of virtually every American poetry honor of modern times, A.R. Ammons died February 25th, 2001 in Ithaca, New York. Known for his simplicity of style and purity of theme, A.R. Ammons work invited comparison to such American master poets as Walt Whitman and Emerson. Born Archie Randolph Ammons on a farm outside of Whiteville, North Carolina in 1926, Ammons endured extreme hardship as a child of the Depression. The Ammons family, as farmers, were particularly hard hit by the economic crash, drought, and by tragedy: Two younger brothers died while Ammons was a child. Ammons often attributed his imagery and his even keel during the angry "Beat" movement of poetry to memories of his early hardship and poverty, which had shaped his personal perspective. Ammons entered the armed forces during World War II, and it was while serving aboard a US Navy destroyer that he discovered the gentle art of poetry.Ammons began reading collections he found in the ship library and began experimenting with his own verse before he was discharged. Once he had completed his tour of duty, Ammons returned to North Carolina where he attended Wake Forest College on the GI Bill, earning a bachelors degree in biology before doing graduate work at the University of California at Berkeley. After a diverse array of employments, Ammons accepted a faculty position at Cornell University of Ithaca, New York in 1964, the year in which his second volume of poetry, "Expressions of Sea Level" was published.

In a Dark Time ... The Eye Begins to See April 02, 2002 Don't Miss It In the midst of reading A.R. Ammons delightful The Selected Poems, expanded edition After my recent illness I was determined not to miss another important moment in my life, refusing to remain lost in the inevitable stress that has consumed much of my life. At least this time I will try to pay attention to what is truly important. Eyesight It was May before my attention came to spring and my word I said to the southern slopes I've missed it, it came and went before I got right to see: don't worry, said the mountain, try the later northern slopes or if you can climb, climb into spring: but said the mountain it's not that way with all things, some that go are gone Luckily, true beauty is eternal and even ephemeral beauty is seasonal. So, if we are lucky, in nature we can simply go somewhere else to see what we have missed. Posted by lw at 09:34 AM April 04, 2002

In a Dark Time ... The Eye Begins to See Thursday, April 04, 2002 The Poetry of A. R. Ammons I have been reading and trying to come to terms with A.R. Ammons The Selected Poems for nearly two weeks now. I have never been introduced to his poetry in any of the many poetry classes I have taken, so I am a little surprised at how much I like his poetry. How could he have been overlooked by so many people I admired? I see narrow orders, limited tightness, but will not run to that easy victory: still around the looser, wider forces work: I will try to fasten into order enlarging grasps of disorder, widening scope, but enjoying the freedom that Scope eludes my grasp, that there is no finality of vision, that I have perceived nothing completely, that tomorrow a new walk is a new walk. Reflective I found a weed that had a mirror in it and that mirror looked in at a mirror in me that had a weed in it Mansion So it came time for me to cede myself and I chose the wind to be delivered to The wind was glad and said it needed all the body it could get to show its motions with and wanted to know willingly as I hoped it would if it could do something in return to show its gratitude When the tree of my bones rises from the skin I said come and whirlwinding

This entry will mark the first in a series of poems that I will be posting here every Sunday. I've never done a "series" before, but I really wanted to post a poem this morning, and I had the idea of posting something every week, and it sounded good to me. I've collected a lot of poetry over the years (and even written some) and I'd like to use this site to build a collection of favorites and poems that inspire me. This one is by A. R.

60. Cascadilla Falls By A.R. Ammons Cascadilla Falls by AR ammons I went down by Cascadilla Falls thisevening, the stream below the falls, and picked up a handsized http://www.zverina.com/cascadilla.htm

Cascadilla Falls by A.R. Ammons I went down by Cascadilla Falls this evening, the stream below the falls, and picked up a handsized stone kidney-shaed, testicular and thought all its motions into it, the 800 mph earth spin, the 190-million-mile yearly displacement around the sun, the overriding grand haul of the galaxy w/ the 30,000 mph of where the sun's going: thought all the interweaving motions into myself: dropped the stone to dead rest: the stream from other motions broke rushing over it: shelterless, I turned to the sky and stood still: oh I do not know where i am going that I can live my life by this single creek. Note on the text: The single creek in this case is located in Ithaca, NY, one of two (the other is Fall Creek) which cut 100-foot-deep gorges through the Cornell University campus where Ammons teaches poetry. Much to my Texan friend Martin's chagrin, Cascadilla rhymes with Magilla Gorilla, not manzanilla. While I was attending Cornell, a passed-out co-ed rolled off a frat house terrace and fell 80 feet into Cascadilla gorge. She walked away with only a broken arm, having landed, some say miraculously, on a pregnant racoon. The story was reported locally but didn't make the national news until several weeks later when I chanced upon it in the Weekly World News . Now I know that everything they report must be true.
