'FRAGments' is a book-length poem addressing, albeit obliquely, the fate of a glittering young man who departed the poet’s world, first, from college in 1960, and then, later, by death, from a strangely prescient Vietnam, in 1967. Megraw, beyond just memory, haunts five hard decades. The 'hazel eyes, the perfect teeth, the preppy suits, the ease, the careless conversation, the impossible glitter' survive as simply 'FRAGments.'

  • Rothko
    david swartz
    'Rothko,' the title long-poem of this slim volume, is an attempt to crystallize 20 texts on a very elusive major 'abstract expressionist' (a designation of which the artist himself derived scant satisfaction) into a dramatic monologue in a wholly new verse form, 33 sections of 6 couplets of nearly identical length lines, each section preceded by a brief haiku-like quotation fro...

    Pieta`: Song of the Blessed Virgin is the culminating volume of a master poet, who has charted his own truth and passage through the thicket of lesser work, of a host of contemporaries with limited pith and vision, venal ambition, a dogged tendency to measure themselves against peers and seldom the truly great. Witness here some sample rejections: 'Your work has great power an...

The Daughter of Jephthah is the 1st, a fleshing out of the story of a man who trad...
