Late cries rise like lost balloons from the park,
And day sinks into magnifying dark. . . .
And day sinks into magnifying dark. . . .
Sixty Sonnets
Calculated to reflect the sixty minutes in an hour of heightened imaginative contemplation, the poems in Ernest Hilbert’s first book.
Sixty Sonnets, contain memories of violence, historical episodes, humorous reflections, quiet despair, violent discord, public outrage, and private nightmares.
