One looked up, grinning, And said: “Comrade! Brother!”  \nThe Guitarist Tunes Up  \nFrances Cornford  \nWith what attentive courtesy he bent Over his instrument;  \nNot as a lordly conqueror who could Command both wire and wood,  \nBut as a man with a loved woman might, Inquiring with delight  \nWhat slight essential things she had to say Before they started, he and she, to play.  \nSong of the Powers  \nDavid Mason  \nMine, said the stone, mine is the hour. I crush the scissors, such is my power. stronger than wishes, my power, alone.  \nMine, said the paper, mine are the words  \nthat smother the stone with imagined birds, reams of them, flown from the mind of the shaper.  \nMine, said the scissors, mine all the knives gashing through paper‟s ethereal lives; nothing‟s so proper as tattering wishes.  \nAs stone crushes scissors, as paper snuffs stone and scissors cut paper, all end alone.  \nSo heap up your paper and scissors your wishes and uproot the stone from the top of the hill.  \nThey all end alone.  \nAs you will, you will.  \nyou fit into me  \nMargaret Atwood  \nyou fit into me  \nlike a hook into an eye  \na fish hook an open eye  \nPoems for Poetry Responses 4th and 5th Six Weeks 2012-2013  \nTurning Pro  \nIshmael Reed  \nThere are just so many years you can play amateur baseball without turning pro  \nAll of the sudden you realize you‟re ten years older than everybody in the dugout and that the shortstop could be your son.  \nThe front office complains about your slowness in making the line-up  \nThey send down memos about your faulty bunts and point out how the runners are always faking you out  \n“His ability to steal bases has faded” they say  \nThey say they can‟t convince the accountant that there‟s such a thing as “Old Time‟s Sake”  \nBut just as the scribes were beginning to write you off  \nas a has-been on his last leg You pulled out that fateful shut-out  \nand the whistles went off  \nand the fireworks scorched a 747  \nAnd your name lit up the scoreboard and the fans carried you on their shoulders right out of the stadium and into the majors.  \nMuch madness is divinest sense  \nEmily Dickinson  \nMuch madness is divinest sense To a discerning eye,  \nMuch sense, the starkest madness.„Tis the majority  \nIn this, as all, prevail:  \nAssent, and you are sane;  \nDemur, you‟re straightway dangerous And handled with a chain.  \nThe Book  \nMiller Williams  \nI held it in my hands while he told the story.  \nHe had found it in a fallen bunker,  \na book for notes with all the pages blank.  \nHe took it to keep for a sketchbook and diary.  \nHe learned years later, when he showed the book to an old bookbinder, who paled, and stepped back  \na long step and told him what he held, what he had laid the days of his life in.  \nIt‟s bound, the binder said, in human skin.  \nI stood turning it over in my hands, turning it in my head. Human skin.  \nWhat child did this skin fit? What man, what woman? Dragged still full of its flesh from what dream?
