  Natures Silken Robes - Bombyx...

  Natures Silken Robes :: Bombyx mandarina 
  This poem was inspired by a program I saw on silkworms and their germination and metamorphosis into the adult moths (which they generally never get to because of the demand for their silk). 
  Domesticated silk moths don't survive the silk process of obtaining their silk. The death of the silk moth is not described in this Poem. The silk worm trade has been going for over 5,000 years and cultivated mainly in Asia. 
  The name the 'Silk Road' came about because of this highly lucrative trade. 
  The domesticated silk worms are called Bombyx mori, 
  and their Wild cousins are called Bombyx mandarina.

  My Ariel

  A poem-by-poem engagement with Sylvia Plath's Ariel and the towering mythology surrounding it.
    When I am a bitch I feel in such good company.
    Nice girls never gave me anything but trouble,
    Eating the ground out from under me, then waving
    As I fall. Pity one has to die to see how liberating
    Bad can be. But what news had I of my own self?
    Words landed like razors, hours tinkled, suitors arrived.
    Listen, you'll think otherwise, but I tell you, betrayal
    Is your Get Out of Jail Free card. Take it,
    Don't look back. Of course you will. Look back.
    We always do, we who adore the muscle
    Of our cashmere cells, a cock that makes
    Our knees weak. Darlings, don't be sweet,
    Or serviceable. Don't accommodate,
    Write in blood or don't bother ...
    
    Where were you when you first read Ariel? Who were you? What has changed in your life? In the lives of women? In My Ariel, Sina Queyras barges into one of the iconic texts of the twentieth century, with her own family baggage in tow, exploring and exploding the cultural norms, forms, and procedures that frame and contain the lives of women.

  Magnet Ass––And The Stone Cold...

  Magnet Ass and the Stone-Cold Truck Hunters is a Vietnam war memoir about Captain Alan "Magnet Ass" Milacek, the "man who flew his plane on one wing". It is a war story. But it is also not a war story. It has everything to do with a white-hot mission over the Plain of Jars in 1970, for which 10 men earned The Mackay Trophy, one of history's most coveted aviation awards - and at the same time, it has nothing to do with any of that at all.Magnet Ass is gritty and it is holy, sometimes full of shit and shrapnel - and at other times as demure as a duck flying over a pond in the dead of winter. Flashing between 1970 Asia and present day Oklahoma, Magnet Ass is poignantly written, meticulously researched, and narratively gripping. This incredible moment in the annals of air force history becomes a story about the power of kindness, courage, and tenacity in the face of uncertainty and fear. It becomes the story of two men pondering the past and finding themselves not only in remembering, but in relationship. Magnet Ass is at once a potent war story, a lushly written memoir, and a tale of the power of the everyday impossible, which any of us can strive to achieve.
