Starward commented on: The First Iris by patriciajj 4 years 34 weeks* ago* That is soooooooo accurate an: That is soooooooo accurate an observation. Since Autumn, 1976, the readings in poetry I have done---msotly Eliot and Stevens---were, I now realize, never meant for their own sake but to prepare me for one of the great privileges of my old age, since March 2020, or so: to watch the assembling, poem by poem, of one of the most remarkable cosmic visions in poetry that I have ever witnessed. Those great Poets of the past, and I will include Vergil in that, have given us a great legacy; but the disadvantage is that we cannot witness the poetic process, only its finished effect. But she shows us "how it's done," and, as you point out in your comment, this shows us that we should consider her a teacher . . . our teacher . . . postpoems' teacher. Future scholars will get to see her finished, completed work; I probably won't, but what I have seen---what I willl continue to read of her poetry until I can no longer read anyone's poetry---will have been one of the great blessings of my life. Because of her poetry---and the literary example by which she teaches us---I am better able to face my own finalities and to enter that realm which, as Dante describes it, Love has set the stars upon their courses.
