The Swan (2010) - Plot & Excerpts

Swan: Poems and Prose Poems The Poet Dreams of the Mountain Sometimes I grow weary of the days, with all their fits and starts.I want to climb some old gray mountain, slowly, takingthe rest of my lifetime to do it, resting often, sleepingunder the pines or, above them, on the unclothed rocks.I want to see how many stars are still in the skythat we have smothered for years now, a century at least.I want to look back at everything, forgiving it all,and peaceful, knowing the last thing there is to know.All that urgency! Not what the earth is about!How silent the trees, their poetry being of themselves only.I want to take slow steps, and think appropriate thoughts.In ten thousand years, maybe, a piece of the mountain will fall.
