    Extractions: My First Hour That hour, I was most myself. I had shrugged my mother slowly off, I lay there taking my first breaths, as if the air of the room was blowing me like a bubble. All I had to do was go out along the line of my gaze and back, feeling gravity, silk, the pressure of the air a caress, smelling on myself her creamy blood. The air was softly touching my skin and mouth, entering me and drawing forth the little sighs I did not know as mine. I was not afraid. I lay in the quiet and looked, and did the wordless thought, my mind was getting its oxygen direct, the rich mix by mouth. I hated no one. I gazed and gazed, and everything was interesting, I was free, not yet in love, I did not belong to anyone, I had drunk no milk yetno one had my heart. I was not very human. I did not know there was anyone else. I lay like a god, for an hour, then they came for me and took me to my mother.

47. In A Dark Time: Sharon Olds Archives

    Extractions: It’s never a good sign when it takes me a long time to read a book of poetry, and I started reading Sharon Olds’ The Unswept Room just before Christmas when I was waiting in the airport Christmas Eve to pick up Tyson, Jen and Logan. Reading the first poems, I decided that they were simply too depressing to read during the Christmas season for they describe a dysfunctional, abusive family and the effect that family has on the poem’s narrator. Of course, the simple fact that I found them disturbing enough that I wanted to put them off to a later time seems positive to me. The early poems are in the tradition of Sexton, Plath, and Howe, and unfortunately those are tough poets to follow. While Olds does stake out her own territory, a middle ground where the parents seem more dysfunctional than abusive, there is little that is truly new here and the poems lack the vivid imagery that sets Sexton’s poems apart. Still, as Thomas F. Dillingham notes , “To her admirers, Olds is a poet of direct physicality and painful honesty, depicting aspects of family life and of personal relationships that have rarely been described in such intimate or graphic terms.” I’m just not sure that I belong among her admirers. My favorite poems are found in the middle of the book where Olds’ narrator begins to discover that, given the right circumstances, it is possible to overcome the effects of a dysfunctional childhood. One of my favorite, perhaps because it reminds me of some of my own feelings for my first-born daughter is:

52. Galway Kinnell And Sharon Olds
    MONDAY, NOVEMBER 10, 2003. GALWAY KINNELL sharon olds. Alley Theater, 615 Texas Avenue. 730 pm. IN THE NATIONAL BOOK AWARD judges  
    http://www.inprint-inc.org/kinnell.olds.htm
    
    Extractions: IN THE NATIONAL BOOK AWARD judges’ citation for his Selected Poems, Galway Kinnell was called “America’s preeminent visionary,” with work in 12 collections that “greets each new age with rapture and abundance. . . [and] sets him at the table with his mentors: Rilke, Whitman, and Frost.” His books, which span five decades, include The Book of Nightmares, Body Rags, and A New Selected Poems , which was a National Book Award finalist, as well as translations of Villon and Rilke. He is also the recipient of the Pulitzer Prize (for his Selected Poems ) and a MacArthur Fellowship. Kinnell teaches at New York University, where he is Erich Maria Remarque Professor of Creative Writing. SHARON OLD’S POETRY, says Michael Ondaatje, is “pure fire in the hands,” and David Leavitt in the Voice Literary Supplement describes her work as “remarkable for its candor, its eroticism, and its power to move.”

    Extractions: by Sharon Olds Thank you very much. Partly in deference to the age in which Emily lived, and partly in deference to the climate of the room, I'm beginning my reading in gloves. Now I'm here, no I arrivethere. I think she's such an astonishing poet, such an astonishing being, that she wrote at all and that she wrote so brilliantly. That there was at that time and place a great poet is always powerfully moving to me. I especially love her rhythm. We'll all be saying what we love best, and what we feel most connected to. And since one of the things in poetry that's the strongest for me is rhythm, that was one of the things I first responded to in Emily Dickinson. I envy Seas, whereon He rides -
