Cover of Songs for the Landbound shows a detail of J. B. Kidd's copy of J.J. Audubon's Rose-Breasted Grosbeak: partial view of two mostly black and white birds, one with open wings, the other just the head, both about to pick a red berry from a conifer (probably American Yew), against a grayish-white background
Naming Absence
The ache at the incision, ghost stitch sewn
illuminant over the scar; loss hemmed
and let down and re-hemmed.
The hollow its won throat.
Rot's petal curl, collapse, pressed scent;
the fog's uneven dissipation; fall's
specific dusk. Shades of eggshell; an unbroken
breath. The boomerang released
for its returning; the mateless mourning dove.
A still life: pavement with evaporating rain.
"The boomerang released / for its returning"
I so love the images, the sounds, the line-breaks &&& in this & so many other poems from @violetagm.bsky.social's SONGS FOR THE LAND-BOUND (@juneroadpress.bsky.social, 2024)!

A pleasure to chat with @sakeriver.com on Keep the Channel Open. We talked about ephemerality, poems about tv, and how it feels to be bad at something. At one point, Mike said it was like I was interviewing him—and I kind of was, because I'm nosy like that. www.keepthechannelopen.com/episodes/202...
