A Different Day: A 2021 Poetry Preview, Part 2
We ve seen a force that would shatter our nation rather than share it,
Would destroy our country if it meant delaying democracy.
And this effort very nearly succeeded.
But while democracy can be periodically delayed,
It can never be permanently defeated.
President Biden s inauguration concluded with The Hill We Climb, National Youth Poet Laureate Amada Gorman s beautiful poem written for the ceremony, which includes the lines above, written after the storming of the Capitol. As recently as yesterday, I could barely allow myself the sort of hope and resolve these lines communicate; I was awash, like so many others, in a miasma of anger, confusion, anxiety and fear.

In Gander s follow up to his extraordinary book of loss and lamentation,
Be With, (for which he was awarded the Pulitzer Prize), this poet of metaphysical abstraction, Eros, and intimate observation and even adulation of the natural world finds fresh metaphors for the sudden and uneasy onset of new love in the life cycles of lichen, which is theoretically immortal, can reproduce asexually, and achieves a/ contested mutuality, a phrase that begins to describe Gander s sense of new love after grief. Despite Gander s affection for challenging scientific and philosophical vocabularies, this may be his most conversational and accessible book, in which he observes not only Erogenous zones in oaks/ slung with/ stoles of lace lichen but also the vision of a new love when her lavish face turns toward him/ beaming, the corners of her eyes wind-wet.
