Author
Description
New Weather was Paul Muldoon's first book of poems. When it appeared in 1973, Seamus Heaney described its author as 'unusually gifted, endowed with an individual sense of rhythm, a natural and copious vocabulary, a technical accomplishment and an intellectual boldness that mark him as the most promising poet to appear in Ireland for years.' While the promise has been amply fulfilled, New Weather gives the poet's many, more recent admirers the opportunity...

"When I hold the pen in my hand"
The eyes are the reader.
The ears see the beauty
The breath inhale both of that
The lips are smiling like a new moon
The mind is crazy
It holds all-stars
Hands start the dance
When I hold the pen in my hand
The Soul is a perfect rhythm
With all of them
The flower, stars, moon with sunlight
All come on together
In the photos, like a poem
When I hold the pen in my hand. (SI)

Diego Ríquel nació, con fusas y difusas, un 22 de noviembre de 1969 en Reconquista, Santa Fe.
Cuentan los que saben que allá lejos y hace tiempo, en estas tierras, cazaban, recolectaban y pescaban los abipones. El arroyo que las regaba y las riega es el Ichimaye. Fueron tristemente diezmados en nombre del progreso por el general Obligado. Por esas cosas de la historia, es descendiente trentino que junto a los friulanos se asentaron en estos lugares.

55) My Life in Verse

Description
As long as I can remember, the only thing that fills my brain are words, and ever since starting school and falling in love with rhyming iambic pentameters, I have been writing "old-fashioned" poetry! This collection has been garnered and put together from hand-drafted papers and (my sister having taught me how to type so that she could read my scrawl!) from a life's collection of typed manuscripts.
