href=\"https:\/\/www.poetryfoundation.org\/poems\/49909\/a-narrow-fellow-in-the-grass-1096\"><em>A narrow Fellow in the Grass<\/em> <\/a>(#1096) which is the gold standard when it comes to describing a sense of constriction and fear, the encounter with a snake leading to tightened breathing and cold (zero) seeping through the bone. For Wiman, zero refers to other things as well, often in relation to despair, it can be a name given to G-d, or an empty soul.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">There&#8217;s much to learn from his writing, much that spoke to me as an artist as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;<em>Why does one create? Two reasons: an overabundance of life and a deficiency of it; a sense that reality has called out in such a way that only your own soul can answer (I create &#8220;in return&#8221; said Robert Duncan,) and in a simultaneous sense that in that word &#8220;soul&#8221; is a hole that no creation of your own can ever fill.<\/em>&#8221; (p.73)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">In any case, I assumed that I was not going to review the entire book (previously done by others <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2023\/12\/03\/books\/review\/zero-at-the-bone-christian-wiman.html\">here<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.literarymatters.org\/16-3-christian-wimans-poetics-of-spiritual-survival-a-review-of-zero-at-the-bone\/\">here<\/a>, for one), just highly recommend it. I tried to find a poem by the author instead, that would convey the central themes of his thinking, the depth of his way of honing himself, refusing to go under, if only with proud sarcasm (note that the last word in it is entirely ambiguous &#8211; it could refer to his first name, or his faith.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"890\" height=\"592\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.heuermontage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/DSC_0187-1.jpg?resize=890%2C592&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-64061\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.heuermontage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/DSC_0187-1.jpg?resize=1024%2C681&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.heuermontage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/DSC_0187-1.jpg?resize=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.heuermontage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/DSC_0187-1.jpg?resize=768%2C511&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.heuermontage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/DSC_0187-1.jpg?resize=1536%2C1021&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.heuermontage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/DSC_0187-1.jpg?resize=280%2C185&amp;ssl=1 280w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.heuermontage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/DSC_0187-1.jpg?resize=560%2C372&amp;ssl=1 560w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.heuermontage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/DSC_0187-1.jpg?resize=80%2C53&amp;ssl=1 80w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.heuermontage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/DSC_0187-1.jpg?w=1800&amp;ssl=1 1800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 890px) 100vw, 890px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Here is the poem: (and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.science.org\/content\/article\/bees-understand-concept-zero\">here<\/a> is a convenient link to the scientific research that has shown bees to have not just numerical skills &#8211; they can count up to 4 landmarks &#8211; but also a concept of nothing (zero) to be a number below the ones they could identify.
