IF THE POETS HAD FEARED THE ADVERTISERS, by FRANKLIN PIERCE ADAMS Poet Analysis Poet's Biography First Line: Hear the sledges with the bells Last Line: The liquefaction of her feminine apparel. Alternate Author Name(s): F. P. A. Subject(s): Poetry & Poets; Writing & Writers | |||
HEAR the sledges with the bells, Bells fashioned of a well-known metal. Up from the meadows rich with a prominent kind of grain, Clear in the cool September morn. The clustered spires of a small Southern town stand, Green walled by the hills of a famous state below Mason and Dixon's line. When as in a certain textile fabric my Julia goes, Then, then, methinks how sweetly flows The liquefaction of her feminine apparel. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE CELL, SELECTION by LYN HEJINIAN OXOTA: A SHORT RUSSIAN NOVEL: CHAPTER 126: THE DOUBTING MAN by LYN HEJINIAN WAKING THE MORNING DREAMLESS AFTER LONG SLEEP by JANE HIRSHFIELD COMPULSIVE QUALIFICATIONS by RICHARD HOWARD DEUTSCH DURCH FREUD by RANDALL JARRELL LET THEM ALONE by ROBINSON JEFFERS ON BUILDING WITH STONE by ROBINSON JEFFERS LINES FROM A PLUTOCRATIC POETASTER TO A DITCH-DIGGER by FRANKLIN PIERCE ADAMS |
