SAILING TO OBLIVION
by Richard Moore Beginning with a rich parody of William Butler Yeats's great poem, "Sailing to Byzantium," Richard Moore demonstrates once again that the spirit of comedy is not just a way to make modern poetry attractive to the common man, but even more importantly, provides the best means, the discipline of mind, with which to solve the emotional dilemmas of the modern age. In poem after poem, Moore wrenches the mind and delights it at the same time. The effect, readers, is exquisite.
