Despairs

Poetry. "...poems with the shock of rightness - Cid Corman's poems. The look of delicacy is deceptive. More often it's leanness, poems growing from their own center - no influences, no formal props - then taking us back to the center by the shortest route. There, at center, leanness and rightness become song, an intensity of meaning that makes words pure. We know we have experienced real poetry because we have been where poetry really is" - Hayden Carruth."As if life were the/ most important thing/ on earth and earth were/ important and then/ we get a sudden/ glimpse of galaxies/ and black holes beyond." - "THE IMPORT."Corman, Cid is the author of 'Despairs' with ISBN 9781891812309 and ISBN 1891812300.
