Spirituality Summary Levertov structures this poem in many ways like a Biblical psalm: repetition, irregular rhythms, direct address. The poem is also reminiscent of a Catholic litany in which saints are invoked in repetitive phrases. It moves forward by piling particularity upon particularity. The movement of the first part of the poem corresponds to the process of aging, preparing to die, letting go of the world, a natural flow or rhythm. However, this natural process is aborted: "She did not die." The second part of the poem invokes the unnatural state in which she "lies half-speechless, incontinent, / aching in body, wandering in mind . . ." and describes the tubes and sores. "She is not whole." While the psalmist praises "O Lord of mysteries" for the beauty of sudden death, she cries "how baffling, how clueless / is laggard death . . . ." Death "that steals / insignificant patches of flesh" is a mystery.

American Literature Web Resources: Denise Levertov Denise Levertov (1923-1997) Compiled by Sarah B. Peters, Millikin University Denise Levertov's passion for literature started early in life. Her mother, Beatrice Spooner-Jones Levertoff, home schooled Denise and brought the works of Willa Cather, Charles Dickens and Leo Tolstoy in to the home. At the age of 5, Denise declared that she wanted to be a writer. The poet's interest in Hasidic mysticism can be attributed to her father. Raised a Hasidic Jew, her father Paul Levertoff converted to an Anglican priest by the time Denise was born. Denise Levertov felt that her inherited propensities and the cultural environment of her family had everything to do with who she became. She became a highly respected American poet. 1923 Born October 24 in Ilford, Essex, England 1928 Alleged to have decided to become a writer 1935 Sent poetry to T. S. Eliot; he responded with 2 pages of "excellent advise," and encouragement 1940 At age 17 her first poem was published in Poetry Quarterly During World War II She served as a civilian nurse in London throughout the bombings 1946 Her first book The Double Image (she wrote between the ages of 17 and 21) was published and brought her recognition as one of the "New Romantics" 1947 Denise married Mitchell Goodman, an American writer (they later divorced)
