{"product_id":"without-my-asking-poetry-9781933880747","title":"Without My Asking: Poetry","description":"In poems that range from New England to the Southwest, Without My Asking, takes its cue from Psalms 90's petition--\"teach us to number our days.\" That biblical sense of limits--of what we can know and not know--and, ultimately, the mystery of before and after that encloses our existence is the center around which these poems turn, both seasonally and from day-to-day. In poems that attend to the events of our lives--from the deaths of parents to hummingbirds at a bird feeder--these poems work to utter \"Yes\" to all that happens, that \"peculiar affirmative\" that recognizes, as Elizabeth Bishop says, \"Life's like that . . . also death.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e CavanKerry Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/01\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781933880747\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 5.90w x 0.60d","brand":"Robert Cording","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43397763301557,"sku":"9781933880747","price":13.6,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_3d666c46-4dd7-485d-91fe-d92ba0e8e9e2.jpg?v=1702393896","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/without-my-asking-poetry-9781933880747","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
