For Georg Trakl

David St. John

I had no idea, when I first saw this on Amazon, it was actually a single poem, one sheet, handwritten. But then, as I am inordinately fond of bothDavid St. John and Georg Trakl, I'm not going to pick nits.

If you're aware of St. John's work (and if you're not, I strongly suggest reading Study for the World's Body at the earliest opportunity), you already know before hunting this down that you're going to get some good poetry. "For Georg Trakl" is a short, almost introspective piece, absolutely lovely. This shouldn't be a surprise.

I'm going to guess that most folks will find this well-nigh impossible to track down. (It can be gotten through Interlibrary Loan, however, if your library participates.) It is, however, worth it.
