Joyce Poems

Ayodele Casel at the Joyce Theater

Of all the types of dance there are
Across a world-wide map,
My very favorite one, by far,
Is any type of tap.

There’s something ‘bout those quick short moves
With that staccato sound
That gets me into happy grooves
When tap shoes are around.

Today we saw the final show
Of a two week tap dance run.
The joy on stage produced a glow

Premium MemberBetween Reality and Understanding

A thought arose...

In Hegel's great dialectic cotillion,
Time transcends as the Absolute emerges,
From deep submersion.
Veritably idealistic path to verity.
It is all about History!

While Schopenhauer's Will, By mere chance,
Drives life in concentric circles spinning,
But not winning
Human solicitations are insatiable.
A germ on the cogwheel of life,
Facing a suffering eternal stance. 
Crushed!

Cracked glass I bleed, 
each cut reflects an

Premium MemberVerses In Dialogue: Joyce and Atwood Revised

James Joyce:
In winding streets of Dublin, I did dwell,
found Ulyssean tales to weave and tell.
In this modern age, voices rise anew.
What themes thrive, Margaret, in works like you?

Margaret Atwood:
Ah, James, your stream, like a cerebral trance,
misogyny flows, creative mischance.
Your women, mere vessels, for male desire.
In the wake of the past, can your tales inspire?

James Joyce:
Misogynist,
