Sinopsis

Charles Rafferty’s latest collection of prose poems turns philosophical. In A Cluster of Noisy Planets, Rafferty captures the rhythms and patterns of life as a lover, father, and poet, distilling each moment to its essence and grounding them collectively in the wider perspective of a changing world, the constant turning of the stars and the changing seasons of the New England countryside. With a knowing nod to the passage of time―day to day, year to year, epoch to epoch―these lyrical poems form a record of the profound, ephemeral joys, losses, and echoes of commonplace moments.

<b>The Pond</b><p>The world is in short supply. This field of goldenrod will never be enough,and the ocean feels suddenly crossable. In every apple an orchard waits,but who has 20 years to cultivate it? Above our house, the contrails ofthe jets have turned into actual clouds. The rain they promise is anotherlie. Meanwhile, the taste of my blood implies that I am rusting, that abroken machine lies half-submerged in the pond I carry with me.</p>
