writer/poet, Pamela Portwood, has two beautiful poems in this Internet
publication. One, called "The
Dead", is a hauntingly graphic depiction of death as body, decayed;
"Their nails have dropped off like broken strands of fake pearls.
Otherwise, they are quite well dressed." Of time as forever with no
time. A rare moment when life spies death through death's eyes, "They
watch the moon moving mechanically across a forgotten sky." The other,
called "The
Flight of Dead Birds"" has a line which sums up the subject,
"...we grieve as much for ourselves as for the life lost, the face
which no longer looks upon this earth." Excellent work, Pamela. I
believe that these are the thoughts she's pondered over the death of Elizabeth
Bishop. "The dead birds fell but no one had seen them fly." unfortunately,
life is all too much like that.
