Sight and Song offers a thoughtful pairing of visual art and poetry. The poems translate the lines and colors of famous works into original verse, aiming to show what poetry can incarnate when it looks at art with clear, attentive eyes. The volume emphasizes the process of seeing—how a viewer’s perception shapes what a poem can express—without requiring prior art history knowledge.

  • Explore a thoughtful method that treats paintings as living subjects for lyric interpretation.
