there may be thirteen
ways of looking at a blackbird
but only one way
a cardinal gleams
on a snowy branch

#Poets and #poetry fans: where should I start off if I want to read #WallaceStevens? The only poems of his I know are the Emperor of Ice Cream and 13 Ways. I tried reading some poems from "Transport to Summer" but they were way over my head.

Check out my poem Thirteen Ways of Looking at a Pancake
I. In a dozen greasy diners
the one thing on his plate
was a burnt pancake.

The Snow Man
One must have a mind of winter
To regard the frost and the boughs
Of the pine-trees crusted with snow

“Stevens worked briefly as a reporter for the New York Tribune, but the exposure to crime and despair proved to be too much for him, and he turned to practicing law.”

Being pulled by a sled dog but without a sled on cold feet instead
You are your best poem
So Wallace Steven’s must be
The Snowman after all

The poet has only the formulations of midnight. The way through the world is more difficult to find than the way beyond it.

On a few words of what is real in the world
I nourish myself. I defend myself against
Whatever remains.

Born on this day in 1879, Wallace Stevens (1879–1955) was a modernist poet whose works, like Harmonium, fused imagination with philosophy. By day an insurance executive, he remains one of America’s most profound poetic voices. #WallaceStevens #OTD

"Why should she give her bounty to the dead?
What is divinity if it can come
Only in silent shadows and in dreams?"

There are thirteen ways
Of looking at a blackbird
But a heron always
Prefers to be seen
In silhouette
