Do You See This? Do You See This?
Contributor
Translated from the Slovenian by Brian Henry
Abstract
From the author: These two Tomaž Šalamun poems are from his 1986 book Ljubljana Spring, which is an outlier among his 53 books, mainly because he wanted to try writing with more conventional techniques (particularly repetition of entire lines or stanzas). The poems embody Šalamun’s singular vision, but often in a song-like form.
