princessekateri: ‘Dance’
~ Alfred Kreymborg
No_way_but_this: Improvisation
Alfred Kreymborg - 1883-1966
Wind:
Why do you play
that long beautiful adagio,
that archaic air,
to-night
Will it never end?
Or is it the beginning,
some prelude you seek?
Is it a tale you strum?
Yesterday, yesterday—
Have you no more for us?
Wind:
Play on.

Alfred Kreymborg
The pantaloons are dancing,
dancing, through the night,
pure white pantaloons,
underneath the moon,
on a jolly wash line,
skipping from my room,
over to Miranda,
who washed them this noon.
ItzikBasman: Dance
Alfred Kreymborg
Moon dance,
you were not to blame.
Nor you,
lovely white moth.
But I saw you together.

Moon dance,

HarthouseJames: "Dance" by Alfred Kreymborg (1883-1966)
As attested with the critical note by Harriet Monroe about this little poem, "Dance" is a perfect example of the Latin phrase "multum in parvo" which loosely translates to "much in little."
MariaSohn1: Dance
Moon dance,
you were not to blame.
Nor you,
lovely white moth.
But I saw you together.

The snow,
ah yes, ah yes indeed,
is white and beautiful, white and beautiful,
verily beautiful –
from my window.
The sea,
ah yes, ah yes indeed,
is green and alluring, green and alluring,
verily alluring –
from the shore.

OtdMarcel: On this day in 1915 (9.18th), Marcel Duchamp is not himself in the Boston Evening Transcript, with an elegant picture (wrongly) illustrating a piece titled «Why Marcel Duchamps [sic] Calls Hash a Picture», by Alfred Kreymborg.
OtdMarcel: Alfred Kreymborg - a near professional chess player - and MD will later have friendly exchanges, particularly for the purpose of Kreymborg’s poetic review called Others, funded by the Arensbergs and that ran from July 1915 till July 1919, in which Mina Loy will be a regular.

MacDowell1907: All motion cold, and dead all traces thereof:
What sudden shock below, or spark above,
starts torrents raging down till rivers surge —
that aid the first small crocus to emerge?

davidbeehobbs: sort of embarrassing that the lead-off poem in Alfred Kreymborg’s “Anthology of American Poetry: Lyric America 1630-1941” (1941) is effectively a pre-telling of Allan Sherman’s “Hello Muddah, Hello Fadduh”
