This poetry can work as a lesson in verbal and visual imagination: "There are no things rain is like. / Trees are like brick walls. But there are no things the walls themselves are like. / I'm like you. The contents of a book are like margarine. / The hard green surface of my car is like a forest fire" ("Word into Words Won't Go"). In 1970 Clarence Major's first collection, SWALLOW THE LAKE, won the National Council on the Arts Award and a year later his poetry was honored with a New York Cultural Foundation prize.
