New Poem!
...forthcoming in The Southern Review this spring. Details TK!
In fact, lots of things TK. I've been horribly remiss in my blogging lately; more soon.

Updates, &c
Two quick updates—

• One of my poems will be appearing in a future issue of The New York Quarterly—details TK.

Utter Shamelessness
I've picked up a few extra copies of Vivisection from my publisher, so:
1. If you'd like to order a copy directly from me, e-mail me at eric (døt) q (døt) weinstein (åt) gmail (døt) com. The book is $9.00 + $2.00 S&H, PayPal or check. I'll even sign it! Which means it will one day be worth DOZENS.
2. If you'd like to review Vivisection, let me know at the above address and I'll send you a copy gratis.

After Adam (Poem)
This poem first appeared in the spring 2010 issue of the Colorado Review and was reprinted in Vivisection.
After Adam
A stillness over the face
of the water. Cranes remain
motionless. The air settles,
colonizes the bowed spines
of pine, of cedar, of oak.
The trees exhale, unheard in
the wide silence of the world.
For once there are no voices,
humanity gone, as through
a mirror, looking over
his shoulder as he goes, &
vanishing down the many
paths to the world after men
& the heavens fear neither
skyscrapers nor zeppelins.
His fires burn out. Only the
stars are radioactive,
trillions—the bubble image
of a thousand galaxies
reflected & vanishing
in the distance, through mirrors.
Who could look on that & not
weep, not tear his clothes, his hair?
Creation, so much larger
than we’d feared. Yes, then, better
none remain, the garden of
the earth dimming toward twilight,
shadows over the deep, the
partial darkness of water:
& man, asleep, dreaming of air.
