full poem hands

Thanks for coming by, care for a chair?

Oh, you already have one.

This week I am back to work, and am also in full poetry swing. There are vents (and events) a planety (plenty) in the SF Bay this week, its chock full o readings, like some twisted litry pinata. Also, DJ Spooky will be playing/lecturing @ CCA on the 19th @ 7:30, and as a body interested in the intersection of art, theory, and rhythm i am there.

The other side of the full swing is the full rush of finishing my oral edit of bioautography. Whole thing read-thru, outloud, making my last revisions before i seek a few readers and start submiting this fucker for excerpt. 95 pages, at last count, 50 more to read thru. So attending to the oral element here in such a clearly written work is making for a rich intersection, one i can really wander around in and explore. The joy of a project I have become fully intimate with, its precious to me. The terror comes when I share it with others. As if I am doing it for them? As if I'm not. But if you've come to this site, you know that old ego trick... and we grow wiser.

So terror it will be. I will be performing slices of bioautography twice this November:

On Friday the 4th at Poetry + Pizza (7:30 at Escape from New York Pizza, 333 Bush at Montgomery/ $5 at the door and all you can eat free pizza - a benefit for the Zen Hospice).

On Monday the 7th, at All Poets Welcome (7:00pm to 8:30pm at the Gallery Cafe -- 1200 Mason at Washington in SF).

At both lineups I will represent with Naropa holmes Melissa Benham and Sara Larsen. The dream of a wider readership is in the inclusion of those last names, folks. But full respect to both... and even to that dream, which takes hard work to realize.

Also this week I will be drawing up mock layouts of two new subday books, Matt Langley's A Very Mild Eternity and Scott Inguito's lection. lection will kick-off the new subday mini-book series, dedicated to producing great work that is very, very small.

Open a comment box. At the top it reads you can use some HTML tags such as etc. Use the tag with the i, at the beginning of the line you want italicized. Use the same tag at the end of the line but put a / before the i inside the bracket, like this /i. That should work.
