You Whose Eyes Open Naked Into Me

By William Inman

Poetry. when I move my ancient length to your fresh body/ all my pores drink the sacrilege of your youth/ our closeness makes sacrifice of proper distance/ we change all the maps, all the wind directions. William Inman was born in Wilmington, North Carolina, in 1923. He has taught and worked in libraries, and he was Poet-in-Residence at American University in 1967. This chapbook preparing an imaginary younger lover for his death is also Inman's way to make friends with the ageless youth within his own increased age (biographical note). Perfectbound chapbook.
