Gravity and Center: Selected Sonnets, 1994-2022

by Henri Cole

Book Overview

New and selected sonnets from Henri Cole, a poet with "a quality of daring that is rare in our poetry" (Louise Gl ck).

I take joy in considering my generation. I rewrite
to be read, though I feel shame acknowledging it.
Scattered among imposing trees, the ancient
and the modern intersect, spreading germs of pain
and happiness. I curl up in my fleece and drink.
