All the Night Wings is a collection of poems spanning Eiseley’s work as a poet — from 1928 to 1977, just before his death in 1977.
LorenEiseley.Info excerpts part of a verse from “Note at Midnight,” a critical piece in which Eisley’s narrator refers to himself as “Lord of blown nothing and the king of waste / The counselor of leaves upon the blast.”
