"Drum Hadley's poems," said Allen Ginsberg, are "like time
and death." Gathering forty years of Hadley's work, this
extraordinary collection ranges from powerful lyrics to
droll Western "haiku": A Long Day's Ride
My horse looks smaller than it did when I left.
It also commemorates one man's richly eventful career as a
poet, rancher, and dedicated conservationist. A friend and
literary associate of writers including Robert Creeley and
Charles Olson, Hadley is a poet of and for the land he has
helped to preserve: Wash me along the rims of arroyo rocks,
Carry the dust, carry the sands,
Carry these words, my seeds,
Down these blue desert valleys, away.
