Plainspoken, empowering, spare, wise beyond measure, Cliftons words are a balm and a force of good for all "The surest failure / is the unattempted walk."Tracy K. Smith took a poetry workshop with Lucille Clifton following the death of her mother. The experience was an awakening. Clifton spoke of her own losses, centering not on the ideas of "letting go" or "making peace," but of sustained communication with the departed. Cliftons practices included using the Ouija board, or "spirit board," as she called it, to make contact with the other world. "I sat rapt, envious, hopeful," Smith writes, "listening to Clifton describe her own initiation into a fierce and forthright form of knowing." Smiths selections offer a gateway into the profound, moving, accessible, and useful notions of this essential poet.The Divining Poets Quotable Deck Series Elegant, boxed sets of seventyeight cards aagrave la tarot decks, with oracular quotes from the worlds greatest visionary poets.
