That's island
One word of Swedish has changed the whole neighborhood.
When I look up, the yellow house on the corner
is a galleon stranded in flowers. Around it
the wind. Even the high roar of a leaf-mulcher
could be the horn blast from a ship
as it skirts the misted shoals.
We don't need much more to keep things going.
Families complete themselves and refuse to budge from the present, the present extends its glass forehead to sea (backyard breezes, scattered cardinals)

Rita Dove: On the Genesis of "Parsley" Excerpts from an interview with Dove by Stan Sanvel Rubin and Judith Kitchen in 1985. Rubin: ["Parsley"] is based on this historical incident, but you get as imaginative as a novelist, if I might say so. You have Trujillo’s mother die baking "skull-shaped candies" on the Day of the Dead. Is this, in fact, a product of research? Dove: No, it isn’t. In fact, the only thing in that poem which is a product of research is the actual fact that Trujillo made this happen and that the Haitians worked in the cane fields. And then the fact that when someone cannot roll an "r," it usually comes out as an "l"; hence, you get "Katalina" instead of "Katarina." But the rest of it – what goes through Trujillo’s mind as he tries to find a way to kill someone – is my own invention. … Dove: I do, especially in Museum [the collection in which "Parsley" appeared]. When I started Museum Dove: That poem took a long time to write! I started with the facts and that in a certain way almost inhibited me, the fact that he thought up this word, was already so amazing that I had a hard time trying to figure out how to deal with it. So when I wrote the poem I tried it in many different ways. I tried a sestina, particularly in the second part, "the palace," simply because the obsessiveness of the sestina, the repeated words, was something I wanted to get – that driven quality – in the poem. I gave up the sestina very early. It was too playful for the poem. A lot of the words stayed – the key words like

Also known as: Rita (Frances) Dove, Rita Frances Dove
Born: August 28, 1952 in Akron, Ohio, United States
Nationality: American
Occupation: Writer BIOGRAPHICAL ESSAY In The Poet's World (1995), a collection of essays written during her l993-95 term as the United States' seventh Poet Laureate, Rita Dove makes a surprising declaration, "My pleasures are taken in the intimate details of life, the miracles of the ordinary." Dove's artistic range seems boundless, fed by her knowledge of world history and literature. But a generous spirit guides her intellectual curiosity: she does not want to learn facts or to observe art and artifacts; she wants to engage with the world and its people. Whether writing about herself, her grandparents, an ancient Chinese princess, a German woman widowed during World War II, mythological characters, the blues singer Bessie Smith, or even a fossilized fish, Dove brings readers closer to ourselves, our world, and each other. She has read widely and travelled extensively, but she also grounds her work in her own intimate, ordinary experiences as a daughter, granddaughter, wife, mother, African American, woman and teacher. As she observed in a l991 interview published in

Cl ick here to read the University of Virginia's hypertext version of Dove's poem, printed in its limited edition, handcrafted typeface, and created for U.Va.'s celebration of the acquisition of its four millionth volume. (Note: This version will take longer to load). As preparations rolled for the 200th anniversary of the laying of the cornerstone of the U.S. Capitol, Thomas Crawford's Lady Freedom was brought down for a make-over: After two centuries of standing atop of the Capitol dome, exposed to weather and pollution, she needed major repairs. Months before she was appointed Poet Laureate of the United States in 1993, Rita Dove read about Lady Freedom's temporary removal in the newspapers: "I thought it was a marvelous irony and jotted down a few lines in my notebook" ("In Honor," 2). Months later, and still remembering those first few jots, Dove found herself writing about Lady Freedom for the Capitol's bicentennial occasion. Through the course of her reparations, Lady Freedom was stationed in a parking lota humbling change from her lofty perchnear to Dove's Library of Congress office. For a few short months, Dove had the rare opportunity to take at look at Crawford's rendition of lady liberty up close. Her scrutiny and sharp perception grew into a poem about Lady Freedom's layered meanings: "I wanted to convey some sense of the beleaguered status of freedom," says Dove

RITA DOVE
The Darker Face of the Earth
Crossroads Theatre Company, New Brunswick, NJ
Rita Dove's extraordinary first play, The Darker Face of the Earth , is a beautiful poem-play based on Sophocles' Greek tragedy King Oedipus . The action is set on a Southern plantation during the slavery era, where Amalia, the plantation owner's wife, gives birth to a child of color. As in the original myth, the baby, Augustus, is ordered to be killed, but grows up instead and, like Oedipus, returns to the place of his birth to face the realities of slavery and an inexplicable fascination with the mistress of the plantation. A slave uprising brings Augustus, the leader of the revolution, face to face with his identity. Using a Greek chorus with African rhythms, the play unfolds inexorably, relating the story of the man who kills his father, loves his mother, and weaves his political and personal tragedy on the loom of fate. Rita Dove, U.S. Poet Laureate and Commonwealth Professor of English at the University of Virginia, was born in Akron, Ohio, in 1952. She has published five books of poetry, among them Thomas and Beulah , which was awarded the Pulitzer Prize. She is also the author of a novel
