RUBBER ANGEL, by JAMES GALVIN Poet Analysis Poet's Biography First Line: The world is not Last Line: I dare you Subject(s): Birds; Flowers; Forests; Owls; Philosophy & Philosophers; Woods | |||
The world is not Your philosophical problem. Generous with rigor, Bright blue regardless of heat, It flourishes in distance. The flowers we preserved, The owl-pocked forests We defended with spikes. Just try Not living your life. I dare you. Used with the permission of Copper Canyon Press, P.O.
