Memories and experiences reverberate with the art of our time. |
Summer Solstice -- from Osip Mandelstam
Orioles live in th elms, and in classical verse the length of the vowels alone determines the measure. Once and once only a year nature knows quantity stretched to the limit, as in Homer's meter.
O this is a day that yawns like a caesura: serene from the start, almost painfully slowed. Oxen browse in the field, and a golden languor keeps me drawing a rich, whole note from my reed.
