Alix 8Il'.008-dc2l Yellow Cedars Blooming: An Anthology ofV1rgin Islands Poetry To the Reader The poems in this book have survived the stonns of this strange time, and of far older times as well. Their words have been blasted by wind. soaked by water, rescued from brittle pages that crumble at the touch. some of these words we have found and collected. It is the lost poems that you the reader must find, the ones that live only m the memory of the old. And the dead: you must search for the1r poems too. They have much that remains to be said. And your very own lost poems-fragmentary, unborn, a phrase that will not leave you-gather these with a vengeance. You need them-we all do. iii Yellow Cedars Blooming: An Anthology of Virgin Islands Poetry PREFACE The United States Virgin Islands has a long and prolific poetic tradition, perhaps stemming from its oral roots. Unfortunately, this poetry has not been available to later generations because it has been scattered and out-of-print. This anthology was created to gather together both old and new, out-of-print and currently published works, and to bring all this wonderful poetry to the people. Like all worthwhile projects, this anthology was only made possible through the cooperation and assistance ofmany persons who selflessly donated their time and energy because they believed in the project and thought that it would benefit the Virgin Islands. Particular thanks are due to Christian Doute and Alix Thayer, who joined the project half way through its inception and remained dedicated and committed during the remaining three years that it took to complete. Chris, as Technical Editor, devoted countless hours entering and fonnatting data and creating the index. Alix, as Assistant Editor, insured the completeness and correctness ofall infonnation, negotiated copyright permissions, and coordinated the biographical infonnation. Very special thanks are also due to Dr. Marvin Williams, a poet himself and Editor of this anthology. Throughout the project, he continued to refine it and keep it as current and comprehensive as possible. His thoughtful critical essay, as well as the essays contributed by Dr. Marilyn Krigger, Dr. Roberta Knowles, and Raymond Ross, enhance and extend our understanding ofthe poetry and add immeasurably to the scholarly value ofthis anthology. Their participation is most gratefully appreciated. Among the many other persons who gave valuable input to this publication are Dr. Ruby Simmonds, whose critical reading ofthe draft helped tremendously in shaping the final publication; Jennifer Jackson, who assisted with the initial poetry selection; Latifah Chinnery, Dr. Vincent Cooper, Gene Emanuel, Dr. Roberta Knowles, Raymond Ross, and Dr. Gilbert Sprauve, who served on the initial Advisory Board. Thanks also to Shirley Lincoln for providing the cataloging information and to Magda Smith for negotiating the cover ofthe anthology, a painting by Virgin Islands artist Albert Daniel. Finally, thanks and appreciation go to Magda Smith and Simon Caines of the Virgin Islands Hwnanities Council for their moral support and encouragement throughout the six years that it has taken to complete it. Most of all we thank them and the entire Humanities Council for not losing hope that this anthology would one day be published.

    What Shall We do Now? Good afternoon. My name is Björgvin Rúnar Leifsson and this is an episode about Pink Floyd. When the money for "Dark Side of the Moon" and "Wish You Were Here "began to flow, members of Pink Floyd considered all their financial problems solved and began to invest in various things due to advice from investment experts so they didn't have to pay sky-high taxes but in the UK, the high-income tax rate was 83% in 1977. As the boys had absolutely no knowledge whatsoever in these matters, they left it all to the experts who were so successful that in 1979 they had to leave Great Britain for a year to avoid total bankruptcy. This did not go down well with all the band members. Richard Wright who had children attending school had to leave them in the UK with their mother and missed them a lot. In fact, his marriage was on the decline, and all this did not help his mental well-being at that time. The children of the others were however much younger so they could take their families with them on this exile. In 1978, both Gilmour and Wright released solo albums. Gilmour's is simply called "David Gilmour" and among the demos he wrote was one which never went on the album but appeared considerably modified on "TheWall" with a guitar solo, that many consider the best rock guitar solo of all time. Among the musicians who helped Gilmour was Willie Wilson from Gilmour's old band, "Jokers Wild".
