update

Ok. So maybe I won't keep this updated (frequently), which is though, now, an update of sorts. (Can I get away with that?) to be realistic, I'm thinking now that I can get to it quarterly to offer a new poem, change up some pics and anything else that might be relavent.

In other news, The World in Place of Itself has been out for about a month now. I am happy with it. Recently, as in yesterday, Poetry Daily chose to publish a poem from the book on their website for the date of Oct 5th. It's a great site with multitudes of fabulous poems archived. I'll post the link when it comes to date.

And for anyone interested, I'll be reading in Portland, Maine at Books Etc... on Sunday, Nov. 4th with April Ossmann, who also has a new book out now entitled, Anxious Music.

Hey Bill,

Congrats on the book. I read the featured poem on http://www.poems.com/ and enjoyed it. Look forward to reading the book and see you guys at the reading in a week or so...

Hi, Bill, my name is john guzlowski, and I've recently found your terrific poems.

I was wondering what your ethnic background is.

I've been getting in touch with Polish-American poets recently and organizing readings (January 2008 there's one at the Polish Embassy in DC) and publications (a special issue of Polish American Studies).

Maybe you know some of the people I've been in touch with: Leonard Kress, Mark Pawlak, Cecilia Woloch, Thad Rutkowski, Anthony Bukoski.

I'd like to hear from you.

1.一幅试图摆脱过多体积飞翔的男人肖像(Portrait of the Man Trying to Shed Enough Mass to Fly)


他太太死时很年轻

尽管死了很久,他的身体继续活着

每天同样皱巴巴的黑裤

发白的T恤



衰老,于他太沉重

他坐在屋外干咳

或拿着一杯伏特加,凝视

厨房地板上燃烧着的烟头



他唯一的说话是诅咒

樱桃树上的黑鸟

他全身摔得青紫

上下关节浮肿

治疗本身变成了疾病

尽管他的心还被认为健康



从背后看,他的肋骨、手臂的轮廓

皮肤都已老化

他不吃不睡,眼睛里总是流着眼泪



到最后,他成了一片

掉落的纸灰

假如天使选择肉体怎么办

夜曲



2.岛屿(Nocturne)

移开自己的位置



窗下,一条狗在街道上撒尿



切线的声音

接着,一只海鸥翻飞起就像一条切断的绳索:



教堂压着自己的份量



我,在这里

等待天亮


3.夜邮差(Night Courier)

我可以听见你生锈的链条、叽叽嘎嘎的轴承

你歪钢圈的节拍器

我可以听见你邮包的重击声

挨着每户人家的纱门穿过整个街道

我可以在花床上看见你轮胎的压痕

你的帽子遮盖不了猛然出现的

你的眼睛,你的外套一直捂到鼻子

总有一天你的裤腿会卷到齿轮里

你将会仔细检查把手

总有一天你会发现你的自行车和邮包垂挂

在电话线下

雨阻挡不了你,你经受住了风的考验

你已在这个岗位上多年

你在为谁工作

我可以看见早晨的地平线宛如

监狱的红光,你已经把整个世界拖在后面

没有一声抱怨

你从不为金钱改变自己,从不停下脚步

喘一口气或抽一根烟,你从不显出疲倦

我敬仰你

Hey Bill,

I heard you read at Cafe Orwell last night (I say heard, because my eyes were closed) and really enjoyed your work.

Just wanted to let you know that I'm including you in my coverage of SITE fest for pomponline.com. The blog should be up in a few days.

Nice to meet you,
Hannah Miet
