Comments on: Two Poems by Robert Mueller http://www.spinozablue.com/2009/12/3137/ An Eclectic Journal of the Arts Tue, 27 Jul 2010 05:10:00 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.1 By: george spencer http://www.spinozablue.com/2009/12/3137/comment-page-1/#comment-645 george spencer Fri, 25 Dec 2009 04:41:16 +0000 http://www.spinozablue.com/?p=3137#comment-645 What wonderful poems. I want to comment on the first. Community Still; such an Elizabethan beginning and a few lines more are suggestions of American Indian cosmology, two vastly different world views or are the sacred hoops for the skipping girl. And the poet can't write the ragged horizon (but it's there for the reader to look at and think about.) This poem is so willfully suggestive. Things are bouncing off each other and making gorgeous sounds. The poem is a voyage. Have we come full circle? Is the pipe the Indians again? And who is the Queen of Part-Day: Elizabeth? I'm not asking the poet these questions. They are for the reader to think about.<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('645','george spencer'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('645','george spencer','What wonderful poems.
