"It's a Strange and Beautiful World."
Books By Mike Feder
(The Talking Cure and New York Son)
Poems for the Fall Season
Fallen leaf...
gentle stream
carries it away
---
The Lark Ascending
The soul doesn’t float
up to heaven;
doesn’t merely drift,
vagrant and without design.
It has a flight plan;
invisible, erratic, perfect.
A moving image
of the brief form of beauty
that bound it to earth below.
