Record

The fingers
On the rim,

As the poet once
Said of the grooves

Cut by the ropes
Into the stones

Ringing the lip
Of the well.

NB: The poet is Dionysios Solomos from The Woman of Zakynthos; see also George Seferis, Mythistorema, poem number two.

The Nightest


Recently received from the author: An exquisite three-color foldout accordion booklet stuffed with twenty poems, forthcoming from Bob Arnold's Longhouse. Not only is Levy's poetry a sheer delight to read, the booklet itself is a work of art. Highly recommended.

Night Flight

To avoid unforeseen complications
Ushered in by unwarranted light

After filling jar with fireflies,
Seal off all access

To further night.
