In a Dark Time ... The Eye Begins to See January 08, 2002 Another Look at Creativity Passing Through Courage to Create , though they both seem to making the same kinds of claims for the value of art. SPEAKING OF POETRY The writer today, said Albert Camus in his acceptance of the Nobel Prize, "cannot serve those who make history; he must serve those who are subject to it." How true! And yet one finds to one's dismay that the poetic imagination resists being made the tool of causes, even the noblest of causes. The imagination lives by its contradictions and disdains any form of oppression, including the oppression of the mind by a single idea. Poetry, I have insisted, is ultimately mythology, the telling of the stories of the soul. This would seem to be an introverted, even solipsistic, enterprise, if it were not that these stories recount the soul's passage through the valley of this life-that is to say, its adventure in time, in history. If we want to know what it felt like to be alive at any given moment in the long odyssey of the race, it is to poetry we must turn. The moment is dear to us, precisely because it is so fugitive, and it is somewhat of a paradox that poets should spend a lifetime hunting for the magic that will make the moment stay. Art is that chalice into which we pour the wine of transcendence. What is imagination but a reflection of our yearning to belong to eternity as well as to time? In an age defined by its modes of production, where everybody tends to be a specialist of sorts, the artist ideally is that rarity, a whole person making a whole thing. Poetry, it cannot be denied, requires a mastery of craft, but it is more than a playground for technicians. The craft that I admire most manifests itself not as an aggregate of linguistic or prosodic skills, but as a form of spiritual testimony, the sign of the inviolable self consolidated against the enemies within and without that would corrupt or destroy human pride and dignity. It disturbs me that twentieth century American poets seem largely reconciled to being relegated to the classroom-practically the only habitat in which most of us are conditioned to feel secure. It would be healthier if we could locate ourselves in the thick of life, at every intersection where values and meanings cross, caught in the dangerous traffic between self and universe.

Stanley Kunitz hosted by Gregory Orr Here on this edition of The Writing Life is a moving conversation between Stanley Kunitz (named National Poet Laureate in 2000 at age 95!) and his onetime student, poet and author of the best critical study of Kunitz poetry, Gregory Orr. At age 88, the much-honored Kunitz reflects: "Poetry is most deeply concerned with telling us what it feels like to be alive." "Before there were poets we had no evidence of what it was like to be human on this earth." Through the most ordinary images and details, Kunitz aims to make experience emblematic, "to convert life into legend." He reads "Open the Gates", "Father and Son", "The Portrait", and "An Old Cracked Tune". Orr sees the latter two as companion pieces, revealing the grim and the celebratory in Kunitz's work, while his passion for the natural world is heard in "The Snakes of September" and finally, "The Long Boat".

“Poetry, by its nature, is a ganglion of memories, impressions, influences. A poem without secrets lies dead on the page. Words themselves come to us dragging their roots behind them: roots that are as long as the history of the language.” In his mid-nineties, STANLEY KUNITZ is still writing poems that wrestle with basic themes—“the world’s wrongs and the injustice of time”—and praise the deep human need to create beauty and bring forth new life. He has received nearly every honor bestowed upon a poet, including the Pulitzer and Bollingen Prizes, a National Medal of Arts, and, most recently, appointment as U.S. Poet Laureate. As a former editor of the Yale Younger Poets Series, as a Chancellor Emeritus of the Academy of American Poets, and as a founder of both the Fine Arts Work Center in Provincetown, Massachusetts, and Poets House in New York City, he has tirelessly promoted poetry and public access to the arts, and has with exceptional generosity and foresight encouraged many younger artists. His Collected Poems (2000) gathers ten previous volumes of poetry spanning eight decades. He and his wife summer in Provincetown, Massachusetts, and winter in New York City.

Speaking to teachers at Festival 2000 Poets listen for their poems, and we, as readers, must listen in turn. If we listen hard enough, who knows? We too may break into dance, perhaps for grief, perhaps for joy. Mentor, teacher, and friend to generations of artists and writers, STANLEY KUNITZ is often cited by other poets as the model of what a poet's life can be. His Collected Poems (2000), published when he was 95, attests to his fierce refusal to rest on his accomplishments. Awarded nearly every major honor bestowed upon a poet, including the Pulitzer and Bollingen Prizes, the National Medal of Arts, and the U.S. Poet Laureateship, he has never ceased evolving as a poet, writing some of his most celebrated work in his eighties and nineties. His selfless dedication to nurturing the many arts and artists he loves is most evident in his work as founder of both the Fine Arts Work Center in Provincetown, Massachusetts, and Poets House in New York City.

TOUCH ME Summer is late, my heart. Words plucked out of the air some forty years ago when I was wild with love and torn almost in two scatter like leaves this night of whistling wind and rain. It is my heart that's late, it is my song that's flown. Outdoors all afternoon under a gunmetal sky staking my garden down, I kneeled to the crickets trilling underfoot as if about to burst from their crusty shells; and like a child again marveled to hear so clear and brave a music pour from such a small machine. What makes the engine go? Desire, desire, desire. The longing for the dance stirs in the buried life. One season only, and it's done. So let the battered old willow thrash against the windowpanes and the house timbers creak. Darling, do you remember the man you married? Touch me, remind me who I am. from Passing Through: The Later Poems W.W. Norton and Company Back www.diacenter.org

He won the Pulitzer Prize for poetry in 1959 and the National Book Award in 1995, when he was 90. In 2000, he served as the nation's poet laureate.

The Quarrel The word I spoke in anger weighs less than a parsley seed, but a road runs through it that leads to my grave, that bought-and-paid-for lot on a salt-sprayed hill in Truro where the scrub pines overlook the bay. Half-way I'm dead enough, strayed from my own nature and my fierce hold on life. If I could cry, I'd cry, but I'm too old to be anybody's child.

Luis Shares a Quote from Stanley Kunitz By Luis I would love if you could insert the quote from Stanley Kunitz in any of the upcoming months in MS MuSings. "The poem comes in the form of a blessing - like rapture breaking on the mind, as I tried to phrase it in my youth. Through the years I have found this gift of poetry to be life-sustaining, life-enhancing, and absolutely unpredictable. Does one live, therefore, for the sake of poetry? No, the reverse is true: poetry is for the sake of the life." Stanley Kunitz I was accepted as a fellow member of the Norton Poets around 3 years ago. Thanks Luis AOL IM ICQ # 175265248 We who lived in concentration camps can remember the men who walked through the huts comforting others, giving away their last piece of bread ...

Night Letter by Stanley Kunitz The urgent letter that I try to write Night after night to you to whom I turn, The staunchless word, my language of the wound, Begins to stain the page. Here in my room With my unkenneled need, the Faustian dog That chews my penitential bones, I hope And do not hope, I pray and mock my prayer, Twisting my coils, this dangling life of mine, Now twelve years come of age, and me unpleased With all my ways, my very littlest ones, My part, my lines, unless you hold them dear. Where is your ministry? I thought I heard A piece of laughter break upon the stair Like glass, but when I wheeled around I saw Keeping his rabbit-madness crouched inside, Sit at my desk and scramble all the news. The strangest things are happening. Christ! The dead, Pushing the membrane from their face, salute The dead and scribble slogans on our walls; Phantoms and phobias mobilize, thronging Are lying down, great crowds with fractured wills

80. Letter From Fred Viebahn To Stanley Kunitz Letter from Fred Viebahn to stanley kunitz. Dear stanley,. I justread an interview with you in the Fall 1997 issue of American Poet http://mailer.fsu.edu/~vbrock/FV-SK.htm

Letter from Fred Viebahn to Stanley Kunitz Dear Stanley, I just read an interview with you in the Fall 1997 issue of American Poet , the journal of the Academy of American Poets. I sympathized very much with what you said—it’s no secret that I have been impressed with your views and your writings since I first met you 22 years ago, on that wintry day at the Library of Congress when I and my eleven fellow writers from Germany were introduced by our State Department hosts to the Consultant in Poetry. I especially liked your answer to the interviewer’s question about "the poet’s relationship to the political," when you cite the presence of "unimpeachable representatives of the liberal conscience" (you, Styron, and Arthur Miller) at the National Medal of the Arts dinner at the White House in 1993; I witnessed that momentous event myself, as you know. I also saw in American Poet that you are now, after many years of service, Academy Chancellor Emeritus. Your "retirement" prompted me to take a look at the updated list of the twelve chancellors—and what I saw did not make me happy. Already in 1994 when, on the occasion of the Academy’s 60th anniversary, Rita hosted you and the other chancellors at the Library of Congress, I had noticed that the composition of your board was not only very male dominated (I believe there was one token woman at the time) but showed an absolute lack of minority representation. Furthermore, I was told there had never been a non-white chancellor in the Academy. I found this appalling and said so privately; however, as the Poet Laureate’s husband I decided not to follow my impulses and do what should have been done a long time ago: Confront the Academy publicly with its apparent arrogance and, yes, racism.
