The three Moirai.
Relief, grave of Alexander von der Mark (de)
by Johann Gottfried Schadow. Old National Gallery, Berlin |
For those of you who receive the journal First Things, I have a poem in the current issue.
Other poets in this issue are:
Claudia Gary, Brian Doyle, Amit Majmudar, Stephen Scaer, Kevin McCabe, Carol A. Taylor, Catharine Savage Brosman, Dana Gioia, and Bryce Christensen.
Here's the poem!
When
For man also knoweth not his time.
(Ecclesiastes)
the silver cord
the broken lamp
the overboard
the firedamp
the golden bowl
the unbeknown
the grassy knoll
the chicken bone
the shivered wheel
the shattered jar
the broken keel
the cattle car
the poor, the rich
the swift, the slack
the cur, the bitch
the heart attack
the weak, the strong
the sisters grim
the toll, the gong
the seraphim
