Excerpt
Excerpt: Wendy Carlisle - In His Lecture on Resonance, the Poet Instructs Us The poet tells me I will be redeemed, if I embrace dying. Mortality, fondled like a lover?s balls will give my words the dirt blessing, fill my mouth with salt and sweet as if my tongue licked up a man?s thigh to the dark earth scent alive at the edge of language. Knowing I?m on my way out, he says, should be the fruit of every day. But such short days - and what if they include the drop and rise of my slick belly, breasts against a lover?s skin? He never says, stroked clean and rolled again in sweat, how I could crave another kind of death?
