I got a glimpse of your visual stimulating and delightful poem while checking Google Reader... knew I'd need to come back to to thIS wHEN I could DROP IN! {{NOW}}} I also took the ride of this poem, which lovely nudges us out of the somewhat complacent relationship we have with written text, our brains having such a 'handle on' every word as text --so here, you invite the play for sure through your love of the visual. I thought of you the other day at the thrift store, finding cool hoodies and recalling your love of text/image on fire!
ReplyDeleteI also get a feeling of the scraping and kneading, the stuff of art-making happening in your lovely virtual studio as you "write." :-)
Thank you for filling my heart with "the cuttings from the World Tree Roo - ting } { "
ReplyDeleteI really really needed that!
This poem is evidence of poets as "all the Makers Making empowering"
More please : )
