Here, poet Robert Bly teams with the well-known Jungian analyst and author James Hillman and Michael Meade, a storyteller and scholar of myths and ritual, to find the words that are in men's minds and in their hearts, when mere words are inadequate. That's the power of poetry. And one of the side-effects of the "men's movement" has to open many more men to the power of poetry.

V P R V ALPARAISO P OETRY R EVIEW Contemporary Poetry and Poetics ~J ONATHAN H OLDEN W ILLIAM S TAFFORD: G ENIUS IN C AMOUFLAGE I n 1972, five years before driving to Missoula, Montana, to interview Richard Hugo, I was a student in the Ph.D. program at the University of Colorado. I was driving into Denver with my friend Reg Saner to conduct a Poets-in-the-Schools program. We had turned off U.S. 36 onto I-25 and were heading straight toward downtown Denver when, in one of those moments James Hillman discusses in The Soul's Code, dictated, perhaps, by one's daemon, I realized what I should do with my studies — with my life. I should drop the pathetic idea of doing a thesis in medieval literature to please some father figure and instead do a thesis in twentieth-century American literature, about William Stafford. My thesis would be immediately publishable, for there were no books about him. Best of all, I could drive out to Lake Oswego and interview him for the book. I could actually meet him. In his book Alone with America

Traveling through the Dark There are two options, so it might seem. He could try to deliver the fawn to save its life. Of course, he would prefer to save to fawn. But he quickly realizes that this option is not an option at all. He could not perform such surgery there on that dark mountain road, and even if he could successfully deliver the fawn, he knows he could not keep it alive. Willilam Stafford William Stafford, Poet

Kansas History Web Sites William Stafford's Kansas William Stafford's Hutchinson One Home Mine was a midwest homeyou can keep your world. Plain black hats rode the thoughts that made our code. We sang hymns in the house; the roof was near God. The light bulb that hung in the pantry made a wan light, but we could read by it the names of preserves outside, the buffalo grass, and the wind in the night. A wildcat sprang at Grandpa on the Fourth of July when he was cutting plum bushes for fuel, before Indians pulled the West over the edge of the sky. To anyone who looked at us we said, "My friend"; liking the cut of a thought, we could say "Hello." (But plain black hats rode the thoughts that made our code.) The sun was over our town; it was like a blade. Kicking cottonwood leaves we ran toward storms. Wherever we looked the land would hold us up. Prairie Town There was a river under First and Main; the salt mines honeycombed farther down. A wealth of sun and wind ever so strong converged on that home town, long gone.

Out of the Box Coaching and BREAKTHROUGHS WITH THE ENNEAGRAM , Mary R. Bast, Ph.D. A Story That Could Be True If you were exchanged in the cradle and your real mother died without ever telling the story then no one knows your name, and somewhere in the world your father is lost and needs you but you are far away. He can never find how true you are, how ready. When the great wind comes and the robberies of the rain you stand on the corner shivering. The people who go by you wonder at their calm. They miss the whisper that runs any day in your mind, "Who are you really, wanderer?" and the answer you have to give no matter how dark and cold the world around you is: "Maybe I'm a king."

Far to the north, or indeed in any direction, strange mountains and creatures have always lurked- elves, goblins, trolls, and spiders:-we encounter them in dread and wonder, But once we have tasted far streams, touched the gold, found some limit beyond the waterfall, a season changes, and we come back, changed but safe, quiet, grateful. Suppose an insane wind holds all the hills while strange beliefs whine at the traveler's ears, we ordinary beings can cling to the earth and love where we are, sturdy for common things.

31. William Stafford In spite of the fact that william stafford became an Oregon poet long before he died in 1994, I include him in my list of Kansas poets, because that is http://www.washburn.edu/reference/bridge24/stafford.html

For the month of May I introduce as my Kansas author one who needs no introduction, perhaps the most famous Kansas author of them all, the celebrated poet, William Stafford. KANSAS POEMS OF WILLIAM STAFFORD In spite of the fact that William Stafford became an Oregon poet long before he died in 1994, I include him in my list of Kansas poets, because that is essentially what he remained, he frequently came to Kanasas to read and visit places he knew and good friends, our Denise Low was one of those good friends, he agreed to let her edit a collection of his Kansas poems to celebrate the tenth anniversary of the Woodley Press, in 1990and, finally, because, after being reprinted twice, that book is still in print. I will let Denise introduce Stafford just as she did in her introduction over ten years ago, for it still rings true: The poet William Stafford is easy to like. He holds out his hand to new readers, urging them to "Love the earth like a mole" and to each day nuzzle your way" ("Starting with Little Things"). The poems in this collectionmostly connected to Stafford's Kansas originsoffer a vision of brotherly affection for the earth and its creatures. Likeable, yes, but these are not naive, primitive paintings. The poems are subtle, dark, Godly and paradoxical at once. Stephan Stepanchev calls them poems of "Existential loneliness and Western space." They are not stereotyped rural landscapes of barns and wind vanes.

The Library of Congress At the Un-National Monument Along the Canadian Border William Stafford This is the field where the battle did not happen, where the unknown soldier did not die. This is the field where grass joined hands, where no monument stands, and the only heroic thing is the sky. Birds fly here without any sound, unfolding their wings across the open. hallowed by neglect and an air so tame that people celebrate it by forgetting its name.

36. One Poet's Notes: William Stafford: "Traveling Through The Dark" Nevertheless, my sighting of the deer beside the highway this week reminded me once more of william stafford’s “Traveling through the Dark,” a poem I admire http://edwardbyrne.blogspot.com/2008/01/william-stafford-traveling-through-dark.

skip to main skip to sidebar One Poet's Notes Recommended Readings of Recent Contemporary Poetry and Poetics Thursday, January 17, 2008 William Stafford: "Traveling through the Dark" On Wednesday of each week this semester I teach an evening seminar. In order to avoid driving slowly through the center of town, I usually slip onto a bypass that skirts the city for those quick three exits between my home on the northern border of Valparaiso and the university campus located on the southern end of town. Although some construction has occurred along this length of road, including a couple of new shopping centers, one stretch of the roadway still runs alongside wooded areas and a few yet undeveloped fields. Returning from class the other night, as in the past, I noticed a group of seven deer gathered in the middle of one meadow that extends from the woods and runs parallel to the highway. Sightings of deer are common in this area. Nearly every day I may view two, three, or more deer ambling along the roads in my neighborhood. In fact, some mornings when I walk down my driveway to the mailbox, especially in winter, I might find deer that have come out of the wooded ravine across the street from my house. TRAVELING THROUGH THE DARK Traveling through the dark I found a deer dead on the edge of the Wilson River road.

Sciences Health Arts College Journals Literature Science History Business ... Z Search All Criticism: Printable Version Download PDF Cite this Page William (Edgar) Stafford 1914– American poet, essayist, and editor. Stafford is one of America's most accomplished contemporary poets. His writing is marked by a mature vision and by the calm manner in which he probes beneath the surface of everyday life "to find," in his words, "what the world is trying to be." Stafford was born and raised in Kansas and has lived in the Pacific Northwest since 1948; the dramatic simplicity of the landscape of these regions often provides the material from which his images are formed. Critics occasionally note that his poetry has changed little since his first volume, West of Your City (1960). Samuel Hazo remarks: "Like a good tree of the northwest, Stafford has grown in place." Stafford's second collection, Traveling Through the Dark (1962), received a National Book Award. The title of this collection suggests what Roberta Berke calls Stafford's "journey to the interior: both to the interior of [his] native America and to the primitive [interior of his own mind]."

William Stafford Rescued Year Fifteen South of the bridge on Seventeenth I found back of the willows one summer day a motorcycle with engine running as it lay on its side, ticking over slowly in the high grass. I was fifteen. I admired all that pulsing gleam, the shiny flanks, the demure headlights fringed where it lay; I let it gently to the road and stood with that companion, ready and friendly. I was fifteen. We could find the end of a road, meet the sky on out Seventeenth. I thought about hills, and patting the handle got back a confident opinion. On the bridge we indulged a forward feeling, a tremble. I was fifteen. Thinking, back farther in the grass I found the owner, just coming to, where he had flipped
