"In the Subtropics wiht Amy Clampitt," a memoir by Katherine Jackson "A Hermit Thrush" from THE COLLECTED POEMS Nothing's certain. Crossing, on this longest day, the low-tide-uncovered isthmus, scrambling up the scree-slope of what at high tide will be again an island, to where, a decade since well-being staked the slender, unpremeditated claim that brings us back, year after year, lugging the makings of another picnic the cucumber sandwiches, the sea-air-sanctified fig newtonsthere's no knowing what the slamming seas, the gales of yet another winter may have done. Still there, the gust-beleaguered single spruce tree, the ant-thronged, root-snelled moss, grass and clover tuffet underneath it, edges frazzled raw but, like our own prolonged attachment, holding.

The Poetry Porch 3: Poetics In the Subtropics with Amy Clampitt a memoir by Katherine Jackson The Atlantic Center for the Arts is located in one of those ambiguous Floridian zones somewhere between dry land and marsh. (The postal address is New Smyrna Beach, FL, but the beach is a mirage two miles away). Slatted walkways connect the pavillion-like wood buildings, and travel up and down among saw palmettoes, magnolias, live oaks and longleaf pines. Walking from one building to another produces a sensation of levitation, as if you were floating slightly above the ground, which of course, you often are. There were ten of us, poets "in mid-career," come for a three-week immersion called a "residency." We had been drawn there for many reasons, among them, certainly, an intimation that going south in the winter was as good for poets as for other plumed creatures. But above all, it was poetry that drew uspoetry, and Amy Clampitt, plumed creature par excellence, who was to be our "Master Artist." She assumed this role with a fitting lightness of touch. As a result, I and the others in our group with whom I have spoken in preparing these reminiscences, find that now, over a year later, we are still learning from her. Late on the afternoon of my arrival, I strolled alongside a small, shimmering bay whose surface was beginning to take on the roseate-spoonbill-pink of a Florida sunset. Occasionally, there was a silver splash, as somethingwas it a mullet?leapt, a good foot out of the water; and then a crash, as a pelican went after it. Throughout my walk, the fish leapt, or another did, and the pelican crashed, pink turned to flamingo, and I began to understand what it meant to be in "Florida, the state with the prettiest name." For poets such as Bishop and Stevens, after all, Florida was both a geographical state and an aesthetic condition.

THE STONE FACE OF EMILY DICKINSON by Amy Clampitt Page 1 I'm going to begin with some poems of Emily Dickinson. It was not death, for I stood up And all the Dead, lie down - It was not Night, for all the Bells Put out their Tongues, for Noon. It was not Frost, for on my Flesh I felt Siroccos - crawl - Nor Fire - for just my Marble feet Could keep a Chancel, cool - And yet, it tasted, like them all, The Figures I have seen Set orderly for Burial, Reminded me, of mine - As if my life were shaven, And fitted to a frame, And could not breathe without a key, And 'twas like Midnight, some - When everything that ticked - has stopped - And Space stares all around - Or Grisly frosts - first Autumn morns, Repeal the Beating Ground - But, most, like Chaos - Stopless - cool - Without a Chance, or Spar - Or even a Report of Land - To justify - Despair.

THE STONE FACE OF EMILY DICKINSON by Amy Clampitt Page 2 This poem was written, it is believed, in the flood year of 1862. I'm now going to turn to several other poems of Emily Dickinson, written somewhat later. They're, most of them, not to be found in the anthologies. Most of them, when I proceeded to read straight through her work, were new to me. These were some that struck me particularly: Oh Sumptuous moment Slower go That I may gloat on thee - 'Twill never be the same to starve Now I abundance see - Which was to famish, then or now - The difference of Day Ask him unto the Gallows led - With morning in the sky (JP 1125) The Snow that never drifts - The transient, fragrant snow That comes a single time a Year Is softly driving now - So thorough in the Tree At night beneath the star That it was February's Foot Experience would swear - Like Winter as a Face We stern and former knew Repaired of all but Loneliness By Nature's Alibi - Were every storm so spice The Value could not be - We buy with contrast - Pang is good As near as memory - (JP 1133) Alone and in a Circumstance Reluctant to be told A spider on my reticence Assiduously crawled And so much more at Home than I Immediately grew I felt myself a visitor And hurriedly withdrew Revisiting my late abode With articles of claim I found it quietly assumed As a Gymnasium Where Tax asleep and Title off The inmates of the Air Perpetual presumption took As each were special Heir - If any strike me on the street I can return the Blow -
