About this product
Product Information
From Arra Lynn Ross, a tender, generous, and generative extended poem centered on the experience of parenthood. What is learned? I'll return for my son; / at school, at three thirty-eight, bells will ring & run / days over years. Using unpredictable syllabics, rhyme, and syntax, Day of the Child captures the sensation of altered time that accompanies a child's growth. Seasons come and go. A schoolboy becomes a dreaming infant becomes a five-year-old exploring metaphor for the first time becomes an ultrasound image, a frieze on screen. A mother cycles through her own often dissonant identities: soother, watcher, blame-taker. And both mother and child assume another, significant role: artistic collaborators. For Day of the Child is a poem co-created by child and mother, offering a space in which each's stories, thoughts, words- unbound / by Time & time's delineations -tangle together. In which apartness- Oh indivisible divisible, the presence of another heart beating inside the mother's own body-is continually negotiated. And in which the mother considers her place as intermediary between the child and the world: her protection, her complicity, her joy. Its octave pairs ebb and flow, expand and contract, producing a portrait of raising another human as refracted as it is circular, just as a river breaks into many suns, the sun. For, as the child asserts, love is a circl[e] round / as a Ball. Challenging the notion that parenthood is not itself a poetic endeavor, Day of the Child makes of childrearing a refrain I reframed each day with new words.
