Mourning Summary "When he was dying of / everything," the poet has a dream in which she, too, became diseased and "knew myself." As her friend "got cadaverous and sore," she became more devoted to him. After he dies she asks, "What's / dead? What's dead?" The second part of the poem shifts focus to a circus where a dressed-up elephant defecates as he is performing a trick. Oblivious to what is happening, the elephant continues his act while the audience snickers and laughs. [61 lines] Commentary A strange poem in two disparate parts, connected by the sheer physicality of shit. The dying man, who is also a poet, lacks control over his physical self (shit is the subject of his last poem; his being devolves into (or perhaps away from) the fact of his body. The poet then shows us a performing elephant in a small town. Perhaps the people come to the circus to see "fancy women" or something miraculous, but in the end they are faced with the comic grossness of elephant shit. How do the two parts of the poem fit together? Or do they?

34. "Of The Woe That Swallows Hue": Poem By Heather McHugh His kind never spills itself, except inside another, a receptacle. heather mchugh. Originally published in the April/ May 1998 issue of Boston Review. http://bostonreview.mit.edu/BR23.2/mchugh.html

Of the Woe That Swallows Hue Among men, my dimensions bear repeating, overbearing. Waddle of wrapper and ripped bathrobe, the leaks in luggage (wailings for a sucker! seekings for a sleep!) I've been so woo'd I'm wont to overflow. My kind cannot (o lightning poetry! o fire without a smoke!)-but just spilled over, mere material, from being big. Among the many, lovers knew few finer woes if any, not one man in twenty knew a shitsmear from a bleed. What did I want? Was not his mast of membership an outing admirable, surely I remember it? His idea of a hell a hole, of heaven a heave-ho. Relieved of the gist of the chemical well (connubial glimmers that started as wit, then sharpened into sparkles with contaminating time) he went off with his bowsprit quite inclined to sweeter swims, and farther arts: I hear he plays transparent passages today, the frigate as progenitor. Among his women, mentions

Poetry The Father of the Predicaments Heather McHugh Wesleyan/University of New England, $19.95 (cloth) by Richard Howard May Swenson gone, the Coven has wanted for its requisite sorceress. Herewith, after five earlier collections of verse, aspiring and accomplished in equal parts; after plausible translations of Follain and (with Nikolai Popov) Blaga Dimitrova; and after a volume of quite sanely conducted (though suffusively high-spirited) arguments with the mediumstirrings of the cauldron, one might say; and, crucially, upon the vivid evidence of this new book, the demonstrated determination "to follow every surge of language, every scrap and flotsam," what better logopomp to fall back upon, or leap ahead with, than Heather McHugh herself? High spirits are certainly the proper motive for such an election: no other poet of her generation has so voraciously exhibited (so vulnerably exposed, some might say) that reliance upon the manteia of language itself (herself? Is such poetry, like weaving and pottery, the Woman-Text, in the phraseology of, say, Robert Bly?) as indeed the one reliable thing. If "the father of the predicaments is Being," as McHugh breezily reminds us Aristotle once said, then the mother of predication must be language, and it would appear, from McHugh’s mastery of these mysteries, that our parlance itself is gendered, is sexed, is given over to the rites of the Good Goddess, "abuzz with

Gin Cove Heather McHugh Our grounds are knuckles, needles, degradable ideograms. Granite is lichened to gold graduations; but gold beyond degree has sunk to new September lows, sent stripes across a hundred trunks for one hour only, codes to deepest moss. Out in the open, some deciduousness does brisk business in manifold crosshatch. Were you to be drawn past forest to the shore, you'd read long volumes in the cliff's descent: through nine horizons (ages of pebble, ages of shale) this lean subversive root has struck a lyric, corkscrewed vertical. The beach is one big wedge. It makes its hard point underwater, and keeps its uplands fluted (evidence of decades spent in failing at a dune). Upon this higher composition, skeins of black egg-sac and olive tatter twist their best successions of remark. The beach has lured into its sandhold something hacked-off, root-like, ten feet wide, and tipped it over, and begun to swallow it: half of the muscular tangle protrudes above the fluent strand. Such countlessness is script; unfathomable, and exact.
