Marilyn-McCabe

We’ve had so much great news to share lately that it’s hard to keep up, so we’re a little past due in announcing that Marilyn McCabe has a new book out from The Word Works titled Glass Factory.  McCabe is a poet, translator, singer, and regular contributor to Numéro Cinq, and we’re so excited to get our hands on her latest collection.

Here’s a teaser poem, which she turned into a video poem that was featured on WMHT’s TVFilm series:

.

The dark is shifting almost imperceptibly

.
toward you. I know that much
of endings. As usual I’m mistaken,
though, about what’s moving.
.
Not the dark onward but you
and I falling toward it, and sometimes
it is beautiful, fanned in flame,
.
and some days, as today, obscure.
Hymn so cautious will lead you
humming. I hope.
.
—Marilyn McCabe
