Representing her newest collection, these poems by Elizabeth Bishop center on familiar themes of loss, grief, and also the gaining of a new astrological perspective. Within this collection, astrology serves as a metaphorical trope that communicates a reassuring intimacy awash with planetary configurations. Navigating the way poets envision the life of an artist is what some of these poems are about. One can sense a comedic underpinning and wry overtones of a back story. Under the daring guidance of several mentors, Bishop's work is always changing in order to meet the contemporary aesthetic exigencies of the craft. Written over a six month period in 2021, these poems reflect the challenging yet vibrant textures of an elder. Years before and after Covid may never be quite the same. Moments of self-reflection abound in Bishop's work. Covid gives us time to consider self-reckoning. What are the far reaching implications of wisdom's momentous occasions? The reader will find out as she/he reads between the lines and allows imagination to be unloosed.
