Dream Yourself Flying

“The reader will be totally engaged by Gould's poems.  They are brimming with fervor and care—for her craft and for  our dreaming humanity.”  Vinnie-Marie D'Ambrosio

“I have really enjoyed “Dream Yourself Flying.” You write a cool crisp line that is most effective” – James Laughlin, New Directions

Flying

Fetters fall off you
dream yourself flying
It is!
and you sing
thanks to hands
soar
and bear the cloud tidings
No rest you
visit the caves
of unborn snow
tend the rain’s
seedlings
never forget
your dreary beginnings
bondage you break from
rising high
over the next country
