Hello :) I'm searching for a poem titled "Whippoorwill." I've been searching but I can't seem to find it... It's not the one by Ron Rash, Emily Dickinson, Paul Clement Czaja... I read this poem over four years ago but one image from it stayed very strongly with it--something about black tape stuck up and twisted and binding around the body maybe? The poet also talks about her family--her father, I think. If anyone can point me to the poem, I'd be really grateful! :)

And a poem for all you lovely people, by the Korean poet Chunsu Kim--



Flower
 

Until I spoke his name, 
he had been 
no more than a mere gesture. 

When I spoke his name, 
he came to me 
and became a flower. 

Now speak my name, 
one fitting this color and odor of mine, 
as I spoke his name, 
so that I may go to him 
and become his flower. 

We all wish 
to become something. 
You to me and I to you 
wish to become an unforgettable gaze.
