Love Poem Poetry Relationship



My Mother's Body by Marge Piercy,

My Mother's Body by Marge Piercy,
My Mother's Body, Marge Piercy's tenth book of poetry, takes its title from one of her strongest and most moving poems, the climax of a powerful sequence of Poems to her mother. Rooted in an honest, harrowing, but ally ecstatic confrontation of the mother / daughter relationship in all its complexity and intimacy, it is at the same time an affirmation of continuity and identification. "The Chuppah" comprises poems actually used in her wedding ceremony with Ira Wood. This section sings with powerfully female love poetry. There is also a sustained and direct use of her Jewish identity and faith in these poems, as there is in a number of other poems throughout the volume. Readers of Piercy's previous collections will not be surprised to encounter her mixture of the personal and the political, her love of animals and the Cape landscape. There are poems about doing housework, about accidents, about dreaming, about bag ladies, about luggage, about children's fears of nuclear holocaust; about tomcats, insects in the rafters, the influence of a name, appleblossoms and blackberries, pollution, and some of the ways women objectify one another. In "Does the light fail us, or do we fail the light?" Piercy writes with lacerating honesty about our relationships with the elderly and about hers with her father. Some of the most moving poems are domestic, as in the final sequence, "Six underrated pleasures," which finds in daily women's tasks both pleasure and mystery, affirmation of serf and connection with the mother. In all, My Mother's Body is one of Piercy's most powerful and balanced collections.



Inscrutable Houses: Metaphors of the Body in the Poems of Elizabeth Bishop by Anne Colwell,
Inscrutable Houses: Metaphors of the Body in the Poems of Elizabeth Bishop by Anne Colwell,
Examining the poet's view of the human body and issues of embodiment, Colwell provides an accessible, close reading of Bishop's poetry. Inscrutable Houses examines Elizabeth Bishop's paradoxical relationship to the concept of embodiment as it evolves in the poems of her four published books. Anne Colwell looks at how Bishop uses metaphors of the body to express her powerful ambivalence about human form, at how Bishop moves between pessimism, expressing the idea that the body is the reason for all human loss and misunderstanding, and optimism, seeing the body as the medium for all human connection, for love and knowledge. A combined focus on metaphors of the body in her published work and Bishop's means of arriving at these metaphors through her compositional process therefore highlights important connections between the poet's work and her life, particularly her childhood losses, the influence of contemporary poets, and her personal relationships. Bishop published four collections of poetry, numerous short stories, autobiographical sketches, and several prose pieces on travel. Her double collection titled Poems: North and South -- A Cold Spring, published in 1955, won the Pulitzer Prize, and the later collection Complete Poems (1969) earned her the National Book Award. Colwell's innovative reading not only is valuable in itself but also gives deeper insight into a great and influential poet and contributes to the arguments of more overtly theoretical readings of Bishop's work. "Colwell's work, with its steady focus on Bishop's poems, leads us back to the texts in important and innovative ways, revealing in a new light Bishop's abundant, stunning accomplishments". -- JoanneFeit Diehl Bowdoin College "Anne Colwell's accessible and engaging study offers a striking, coherent analysis and summary of Bishop's poetic development and impressively forthright and helpful readings of her poems -- both major and minor.
