![]() The poet who has written this page (what I read with people talking) has withdrawn. Nothing is to be rejected in fear or horror. One must have patience and infinite care and let the light sound, whether of spiders’ delicate feet on a leaf or the chuckle of water in some irrelevant drain-pipe, unfold too. One must put aside antipathies and jealousies and not interrupt. To read this poem one must have myriad eyes, like one of those lamps that turn on slabs of racing water at midnight in the Atlantic, when perhaps only a spray of seaweed pricks the surface, or suddenly the waves gape and up shoulders a monster. The page is often corrupt and mud-stained, and torn and stuck together with faded leaves, with scraps of verbena or geranium. quotes poetry poem Faith Hill Carl Phillips The Atlantic deathĬertainly, one cannot read this poem without effort. ![]() He is a professor of English at Washington University in St. Served as a chancellor of the Academy of American Poets from 2006 to 2012. Phillips has written “It’s a human need, to make of shapelessness a form.” He hasn’t reached answers in this poem, but he’s given shape to some of the most essential questions. Ultimately, he asks how we should live while we wait for it. How are we to / regard his effects … do we say they are / relics and so treat them like relics? / Does his soiled linen count? By the end, Phillips has weaved his way to a broader wrangling with mortality and human frailty, and a sense of wonder for what death will bring. In “As From a Quiver of Arrows,” Phillips wrestles with death in a series of questions that progresses from the specific to the existential: What do we do with the body, he begins asking. ![]() So Phillips chooses subjects-love, power, freedom, grief-that are particularly hard to grasp. “Poetry is a form of control,” he once said. Carl Phillips, the former chancellor of the Academy of American Poets, has often described poetry as a way to wrestle with ambiguity-to attempt to contain it.

Kerr may also push for Klay Thompson, who’s also a deadly shooter but hasn’t been as effective since missing two full seasons with injuries. Curry hasn’t played in an international tournament since the FIBA World Championship in 2010, but the NBA’s best-ever three-point shooter would be a perfect weapon in the international game. ![]() With Steve Kerr serving as head coach, Warriors star Stephen Curry will be an obvious target. But with opening ceremonies only about 10 months away, it’s not too early to think about who should be there. Few of the 12 players who made up the World Cup team may get Olympic invitations, as the USA will have its traditional collection of All-Stars to pick from. The stakes will be much higher in Paris next summer, as Olympic gold medals are considered the greatest prize in international basketball. Only two All-NBA players took part in the World Cup - Luka Doncic and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander - and neither represented the U.S. It might be easy to dismiss the losses as a result of not having its best players participating, but that’s true for a lot of nations with the Olympics looming in 2024. After blowing out Italy on Tuesday in the start of the elimination round, the same issues emerged on Friday against Germany, which held on for a two-point victory that sent Team USA into the bronze-medal game.

He quickly discovers that it can freeze time for everybody but himself, and sets about trying to improve his situation - eventually choosing to rob a bank. After getting fired from his job and kicked out of a bar, an obnoxious man is gifted a strange stopwatch. “A Kind of a Stopwatch” (season 5, episode 4) is another minor Twilight Zone classic, told in a more overtly comic style than most, but packs a punch with its cruel twist. It’s a hilarious subversion of the original twist, conveying (arguably) a stronger message, and the segment ends with Kang and Kodos returning the Simpsons to Earth - hurt that Lisa doubted their kind motivations. Lisa blows: ‘ How To Cook FORTY Humans’ then the aliens: ‘ How To Cook FOR Forty Humans’. The book, however, is covered in space dust and - when the aliens blow it away - a new title is revealed: ‘ How To Cook FOR Humans’. Suspicious, Lisa discovers a book called ‘ How To Cook Humans’ and confronts the aliens. Marking the first appearance of fan-favorite aliens Kang and Kodos, the segment sees the pair abduct the Simpsons, intent on bringing them to a glorious feast on their home planet. It’s a naive stance, at best, and largely xenophobic - qualities that The Simpsons parodies in “Hungry are the Damned” from “Treehouse of Horror” (season 2, episode 3).
