Poem at 100 M.P.H

When the engine growls,

when lane markers shoot

laser-white, and desert blurs

over windshield, dust,

cacti, sagebrush torched by

decades of drought, and the

mountains are waves that

from AMEREIDA [AMERODYSSEY]

the journey reaches its height

as the eyes

its traveled soil

wouldn’t it reveal in the flesh

a rhythm

to start off a language?

begins with brambles

From raisin in every bite (Furniture Press, 2022)

Jerome Rothenberg

Author’s Note. raisin in every bite gathers and convenes devotional notebook poems at the threshold of dreams, where sleep meets afterlife in memory. These poems fly in flocks, in fabulous company of so many living and dead writers, in love and care for that great company, a ragtag translingual family of freaks and poets and outriders.
