And here they breathe it back out again where it mingles with the breath of America.” Jonathan Chaves, Translator and professor of Chinese --- T’ao Ch’ien (365-427 C.E.) is a major figure in the Chinese poetic tradition whose influence on subsequent generations cannot be overstated. Like T’ao Ch’ien’s poems, those collected here reflect a viewpoint on life and society from outside the mainstream. The five contributors poems are plain spoken, clear, generally short, and readily understandable, yet deeply philosophical. They explore the poets’ states of consciousness and relationship with the natural world as they seek a self-understanding, as well as a connectedness with the wider world that surrounds them. When these poets address political issues, they see through the smoke and mirrors of officialdom and are critical of social injustice. ================================== The Poetics List is moderated & does not accept all posts.

After a long winter the Fox is rustling the leaves. Just in time for MAY DAY afternoon, Whiskey & Fox Parks and Occupation No. 3 it out, being distributed by hand amongst May Day actions in NYC, and available for download from http://whiskeyandfox.org. No. 3 features work from Robin Clarke, Chris Miller, Christine Remein, Gracie Leavitt and RJ Maitland, Jeff T. Johnson, Joshua Zelesnick, Daniel C. Remein, and Gerry Loose. To return again to Jack Spicer: "The music/ Is right though. The lemon tree/ Could branch off into real magic. Each flower in place. We/ Were sickened by the old lemon." 2. Whiskey & Fox still has some more work we are hoping to publish in yet another Parks and Occ. issue. Just because the insurgency of democracy and anarcho-pacifism and public assembly and occupation has hibernated and may or may not proceed with the inertia we would want does not mean that we should not continue to faithfully decorate the parks of the new democracy to come, or, alternately, by contiguously affixing poesis to spaces and places, making/occupying more and more space as parkspace. More issues will be contingent on enough work (read, MORE work) coming our way of sufficient intensity and commitment; work that can invent a new sincerity and sustain a new endurance in order that we can continue this work beyond the initial burst of last autumn.

As you've come to expect from us, styles and approaches vary wildly, from t= he agnostically eclectic to the godly lyrical. Our creators are emergent, e= merged or imminent, yet they all hold the one thing in common: they are con= stantly reinventing themselves in their pursuit of a deeper unknown. This issue's special section is Carol Novak's Traveling Circus, which aside= from a medley of performing creatures from Carol's mythical memoirs, Giraf= fes in Hiding, also showcases a great number of pieces written for Carol by= her friends and fellow artists. There's also a potpourri of Carol's newer = works that only just now get to see the light of day.

From Sarah Simison: We are very sorry to report the death of Andy Suknaski in Moose Jaw on May 3, 2012. While Andy was most famous for WOOD MOUNTAIN POEMS, he first came to fame in Al Purdy's anthology of new writers, STORM WARNING. Andy was a strong believer in the small press movement, and early published such writers as Gary Hyland, Sid Marty and Glen Sorestad; he also influenced a whole generation of prairie writers with his own books of gritty, realistic poetry.

In Norma Cole's radiant new work, Actualities, a poet's intelligence courts hazard, misprision and the incisions of the archaic to draw the ear and the eye toward complex, thrilling delight-and a quickening journey through the natural history of perception. Who knew time could be banished and the senses tempted so?

Yet these poems are rooted in ordinary moments or finding beauty & ecstasy in the ordinary. Owen populates her poems with both desolate and lush landscapes, graffiti, fire & grief. She uses language that appeals to all the senses. She is sensitive to sound as demonstrated by the exquisite musicality and rhythm of the lines. She is a close observer. It is as if Owen holds a magnifying glass to life and is reporting on its intricate details, translating them into poignant imagery and metaphor. These poems are in part empathetic explorations of the nature of grief and an attempt at solace, an attempt at joy, at persevering. Side by side with images of emptiness & incompletion are joyous contortions of language, Whack-A-Mole, buttons popped open, Beaujolais and Betty Boop. When I first heard these poems, I was struck by how imaginative and intense they were, and how I responded to them with understanding, with a feeling of relief at not being alone. $5. limited edition of 50 copies.

MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Dear Poet and/or Friend of Poets and/or others, I've probably written to you about this before. But I'm on the board of a great organization called Small Press Distribution (the only non-profit distributor of literary books left in the entire country). It basically keeps US literatures alive in this bad time. SPD is doing a celebrity spelling bee--called the "Bee-In, A Spelling Bee to Benefit SPD--on May 14th at the Crown Point Gallery in San Francisco to raise a little money. If you are in the Bay Area, it would be great if you would join me there. This year Sedge Thomson will be the emcee again and thriller writer Cara Black returns to spell and then there will be all new spellers including Dennis J. Bernstein, longtime front line reporter specializing in Human Rights (and newly minted poet!), Cy Musiker, a reporter familiar to radio audiences in the Bay Area and beyond; novelist Joshua Mohr; Carolina De Robertis whose novel *Perla* is just out to rave reviews; treasured Bay Area poet D.A. Powell; and John Jay Osborn, Jr., author of recently reprinted and perennial bestselling *Paper Chase*, among many others. There will be tasty treats from ThirstyBear, Semifreddis and "Terroir" gin (inspired by Mt. Tam) from St. George Spirits for genuine Bee's Knees cocktails, along with wine from Kermit Lynch. There's also a Silent Action with fancy restaurant certificates, theater and music tickets, art, books, hotel stays and much more. The bee is Monday, May 14th. The Crown Point Gallery is at 20 Hawthorne Street in San Francisco. Doors open at 6:30. The Bee starts at 7:30 and goes for about an hour.

Im wondering if anyone out there is aware of essays, reviews, interview and/or other works that might help me track this elusive Canadian beast? How did we get to where we are now? Im thinking of contemporary writers working with the prose-poem and/or prose-line such as Meredith Quartermain, Sina Queyras, Sylvia Legris, Lisa Robertson, Daphne Marlatt and Rob Budde.

Maughn's poems unlock new ways for us to think about voice, poetic interactions, and the structures of free verse. Each poem is written 'following' the work of another poet, either a contemporary writer or a recent translation from earlier literature. "These Peripheries" tenderly and with great skill, create a formal and nuanced conversation on contemporary poetics. Maughn's poems, traversing geographies and cultural locations, unsettle the concept of translation as a concrete, fixed mirror and opens it up, like the door of a bird cage, to immense possibilities, infinitely expanding the journey of both the new poems and the source poems. It is a stunning collection which takes a new shape every time I come to read it. =97*Judy Halebsky* =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D The Poetics List is moderated & does not accept all posts.

The "human" is not a given concept, but rather is one that is made in an ongoing technological and anthropological process. We hope to publish an anthology of poetry that participates in technological, biological, representational, sexual, political and theoretical post-humanisms. We're looking for poetry that engages with or is written by animals, beasts, monsters, immigrants, creatures, aliens, cyborgs, queers such that it challenges western, enlightenment figurations of the "self" and "human." Any contemporary work in English (domestic or translated) that addresses the post-human is welcome. Please send up to 20 pages of poetry, in standard format (*.doc, *.docx, *.rtf, *.pdf) to Aaron Apps & Feng Sun Chen via *[submishmash ]*. Previously published work is welcome; please include acknowledgements (if any) and a brief bio with your submission.

For those interested=2C note that = links appear in the Jacket2 feature both to defenses of Stein as well as to= the attacks which the authors of said defenses are responding to. In othe= r words=2C readers who are willing have all the resources necessary to make= up their own minds by going to the Jacket2 page=2C which you link to. Your response to Bernstein is=2C of course=2C only to his introduction to t= he "dossier" featured in that journal (which consists of essays by Burns=2C= Burns & Dydo=2C Retallack=2C Perloff. and Bernstein=2C as well as to addit= ional materials). While your point is well taken on Bernstein's use of cli= ch=E9s=97 at least two=2C in that brief introduction=97 that point is a sty= listic one=2C and ignores his main claim that "[m]ost of these [recent] art= icles [attacking Stein] are written by authors who are hostile to Stein's literary works and who admit to their inability (and unwillingness) to=20 read her work=2C including the works by Stein that directly address the=20 issue at hand. In this Stein dossier=2C key documents are provided that re= fute the=20 sensational tabloid accounts of Stein's activities=2C views=2C and=20 affiliations during the war years." While Bernstein here is arguably being slightly heavy handed in his loaded = reference to "sensational tabloid accounts=2C" your analysis hardly comes o= ff better=2C I'm afraid. For instance=2C you write=97 presumably referring= to the lack of "reference" in CB's poetry=97 that "[a]s a career move=2C t= hat has been a winner for Bernstein." But the text you're responding to is= n't one of his poems at all=2C so what do the signature moves of his poetry= =2C much less his career=2C really have to do with a dossier on Stein's war= years? Or are you arguing that his essay=97 and=2C by extension=2C all of= the essays in the dossier=97 are similarly nonreferential=2C or somehow gu= ilty by association? I note also that you mention at least two Bernstein p= oems specifically=2C while avoiding discussion of any of the other essays i= n the dossier=2C nor of any of the claims made in response to the recent at= tacks on Stein. While your response to Bernstein seems ultimately rooted in some of his abo= ve-mentioned signature "moves=2C" containing as it does a punchline (c.f. h= is poem "Of Time and the Line=2C" which you mention)=2C the subject of the = dossier is hardly a laughing matter. The issue is not Bernstein=2C but Ste= in=97 and collaboration is a serious charge. If there is equally serious e= vidence that this great writer=2C who was at once an elderly Jewish lesbian= and a fairly wealthy patron of the arts=2C was indeed a collaborator=2C th= en let it be brought forward and examined fairly. Apart from a cryptic ref= erence to "a powerful Nazi crook named Bernard Fa=FF=2C" you decline to bri= ng forward or refer to any such damning evidence yourself=2C much less to t= urn the focus of your discussion from messenger to message. While the questions raised about Gertrude Stein's role in Vichy France call= for=2C and deserve=2C serious response=2C I'm sorry to say that I find you= r post to be distracted by issues which strike me as extraneous=2C at best.

The Steins did survive World War II in France; but this survival did not mean surviving the concentration camp or living in a barn in some body's farm. If I remember correctly they spent those years in a house with a garden about which Gertrude Stein herself writes some place outside Paris. You are write, they obtained the house through some German "friends (is that the guy Fey?). If I also remember correctly, in the same text, Stein underplays the threat the Germans occupying France represent though she doesn't outright deny it. I don't think the issue here is denying the value of Stein's writing. Her crucial place in literature is obvious, and it is equally obvious her stunning originality was not appreciated by publishers of her time. In that strict sense she is like Emily Dickinson. On the other hand, in most other ways, she lived the life of a privileged, rich person, running a salon, admired by artists, writers and poets who later turned out to be central historical figures and also protected, it seems, by at least one "enlightened" Nazi collaborator.

Let me dispose of a few technicalities at the beginning and then try to make my original point more clearly. The technicalities: -- Murat writes, ["Stein's] stunning originality was not appreciated by publishers of her time. In that strict sense she is like Emily Dickinson." Actually, at least one influential editor (Thomas Niles of Roberts Brothers, later Little, Brown) begged Dickinson for a manuscript, and she ignored his repeated pleas. Likewise, her childhood friend Helen Hunt Jackson, one of America's best known women of letters during the second half of the nineteenth century, wrote her a letter that said, "You are a great poet -- and it is a wrong to the day you live in, that you will not sing aloud. When you are what men call dead, you will be sorry you were so stingy." (Dickinson, _Letters_, ed. Thomas H. Johnson, no. 444a) Dickinson ignored that one too. -- Bernard Faÿ wasn't a German but a Frenchman, and altogether an amazing person. France's leading expert on American literature, he wrote a very good brand of English indeed in the pages of Eugène Jolas's _transition_ before Jolas broke with Stein, and yes it is literally true that he saved Stein's life during World War II. In gratitude to him, Alice Toklas converted to Catholicism after Stein's death. At the same time, it's also true that he didn't need the house in which he sheltered Alice and Gertrude because he was otherwise occupied with sending Masons to concentration camps. You'll encounter him toward the end of his glory days in Céline's _Castle to Castle_, holed up like a rat with Céline, Pierre Laval, and the rest of the last of Vichy's bitter-enders. And a footnote I learned from Barbara Will: after the war, among his nest of Nazis in Fribourg, Faÿ took under his patronage Marcel Lefebvre, later to go on to Vatican-defying, Holocaust-denying fame with the Société St. Pius X. No Gertrude Stein, no Mel Gibson! As to my own biographical take on Stein, I hardly have one. She was hardly the only American author of German Jewish descent to feel embarrassed or distressed or even pained by her genealogy. Nathanael West had that problem and dealt with it interestingly, by hiding behind a mask until it killed him. (Nobody expects a man named Nathan Weinstein to be a reckless driver, so when Nathan Weinstein changed his name he also started driving so recklessly that his friends refused to get into his car. Not long afterward, as these things go, he drove through a stop sign, and that was that for Nathanael West. He was 37.) By contrast, Walter Lippmann, the father of modern media punditry, was less interesting. He attempted to pass like Anatole Broyard, and to even hint to him that you knew he was Jewish was to break off all communication with him, forever. Stein may have had a similar problem, but of course her language brings out all the complications and ambiguities. Which is to say that she was a great poet. But surely (this is a modest enough idea, isn't it?) none of us is going to claim that being a good (i.e., competent) artist is the same as being a good (i.e., virtuous) person. And surely the example of Bernstein's language means that we aren't warranted in reading Bernstein or Will or Stein or anybody else as if they were journalists, uttering clichés but asking us not to listen to them.

I read nearly every article. What I did gather from all of it is that it is truth that Stein was friends with Bernard Fay, she translated text, and she and Alice moved during the war were they were protected by villagers who they knew and were loved by. No one has provided any information (but I'm a dense reader) as to whether Stein knew Fay's status, supported Hitler, or why she did the translatation or if doing a translation makes her a sympathizer (has anyone read Chronicles of the Guaki Indians/Auster is not a cannibal to my knowledge). To me, and again, I might be silly. To say that the infamous quote means that she was pro-Hilter, grammatically would mean that she was utterly anti-Left and anti-democratic, was she? I know she was republican, but anti-democratic? There are a few things that fascinate me. 1. That when the show was in San Francisco there was relatively no hoopla. I did find a few articles. But in New York is become a huge controversy and was in the Daily News and CBS. It really infiltrated into popular culture. It alarmed me tho that people all over were making a judgement of someone whose work and life they knew nothing about. 2. I do have to say that Stein's self-preservation make me think. Could I act the same? Could fear or self-importance lead me to sit in my house while Jewish children and gays and disabled people and their Catholic sympathizers where being burned in ovens? 3. Yesterday, Jeff & I went to the show to see what was up. The MET did change the sign in the show. They folded to their benefactors. However, the sign merely said something to the effect of Stein was friends with Fay who helped her during the war. In the Met's defense, they kept the issue both brief and factual. I also have to say that I was the BEST collection I've ever seen, and made me cry. I was not prepared for it to be so great. It closes in 2 weeks (I think) and everyone who can, should. 4. After seeing the companion show in San Fransisco, I formed the opinion (which I am still forming) that despite her writing and the great Mother of Us All. I cannot consider Stein a feminist. Here marriage was a patriarchy of the worst kind, she kept the company of largely men, and other than the Mother Of Us All, I can't see how her work advanced the plight of woman at all. Instead, to me, she was a strong brilliant woman (a genius really) who functioned within and perhaps even lauded the patriarchy. A super-great writer, yes. A feminist or kind person, not necessarily.

When the child was nine, his father bought a ranch in the Cariboo region in the interior of British Columbia, where the family spent three years; from there they moved to Burnaby, and later Abbotsford and Langley in the Fraser Valley where Hogg finished high school in 1960. He spent the next four years in the English and Creative Writing program at the University of British Columbia where he came into contact with the Black Mountain poets and their poetics and participated in the Tish poetry movement. After graduating in the spring of 1964 Hogg hitch-hiked to Toronto, visited the poet, Charles Olson, in Buffalo, and applied to study under him in the graduate program of the English Department of the State University of New York. Hogg later wrote his doctoral dissertation on Olson under the supervision of Robert Creeley. He completed the course work for the PhD in the spring of 1968 and accepted a position at Carleton University in Ottawa where he taught Modern and Post-Modern American and Canadian Poetry and Poetic Theory until his retirement in 2005. While at Buffalo Hogg met and married Leslie Flaig, then a music major at the University, who has since become an accomplished artist and photographer. During the next two decades they raised three children on their farm in Mountain Township, about 50 kilometres south of Ottawa, where they grow organic crops and operate a commercial flour mill and natural food distribution company called Mountain Path Inc. At present, Hogg is working on a sixth book of poetry, and editing an extensive anthology of Canadian poetic theory. PUBLICATIONS The Connexions. Berkeley CA: Oyez Press, 1966. Standing Back.

Both source and filters are necessary. Through abstractions, perspectives, mediation and other cognitive tasks, explore the vagaries of giving as you bypass mediocrities and socio-political norms; implore episodes that deliver it, the experience that challenges it. Plead for thrills and chills that land you at the shores of its aesthetic and narrative, historically, culturally or privately. Imitate, improvise or survey to open up to the attention, intention and cost an act of giving calls for. How do emotions play into the act, how does love? Address the entanglements it purports and feeds, the overlaps, the boundaries.

This Internet project dates from 2001--2003. I wrote the libretto based on the writings of Joseph Shaw (1829--1865) who was murdered in Westminster, Maryland because of his involvement with the Know Nothing gang of Baltimore from 1855--1859. What ultimately brought Shaw to his untimely end was a badly timed editorial that appeared on the eve of Lincoln's assassination in April of 1865. Shaw hinted that perhaps Lincoln would make a better president below instead of above ground. When news arrived at Westminster, Maryland his presses were broken, his office set on fire, etc. Shaw left and returned one week later to be stabbed to death at the Anchor Hotel by members of the old Know Nothings that he had tangled with before. The six men who did Shaw in were brought to trial in the Westminster Court House and found not guilty. The State prosecutor was one Charles Webster, a former Know Nothing and Shaw's enemy. All of these circumstances were reflected in the old newspapers of Carroll County, Maryland, and Baltimore, from which I developed the narrative and the songs--found poems in fact. The story is compelling and true, and Bumsteinas' experimental music and use of the burgeoning Internet of the early part of this century is highly innovative.

Garr" Subject: Versal is ten! MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit VERSAL IS TEN Fall in love with the literary journal all over again http://www.versaljournal.org/versalten In the first edition of Versal, published in 2002, founder and editor Megan M. Garr wrote, "This could be the first and last Versal you ever read." But on May 23, 2012, the dazzling tenth Versal, the international literary and arts annual, was revealed to a full house at Bo Cinq in the heart of Amsterdam, the Netherlands. This edition is a gold-plated wonder, with "Versal Ten" embossed on the front in the familiar Versal typeface. The evening marked the journal's milestone with anecdotes from its oldest and newest editors and with readings from contributors Ruth Danon and Laurence Levey, both of whom traveled from the USA for the event. Among the 168 pages of this anniversary edition are four riddles from Ish Klein, a conversation between Michael Martone and Matthew Baker, and a series of "photodrawings" from Irish artist Garrett Phelan. Versal 10 also includes new works from Cody-Rose Clevidence, Erin Costello, Tamar de Kemp, Roxane Gay, James Grinwis, Dora Malech, Ben Merriman, Rusty Morrison, Brandon Shimoda, and many others. For the first time in the journal's history -- perhaps for the first time in literary journal history -- no two copies of the offset-printed, full-color Versal 10 are alike. "750 Circles" is a handmade project by Versal's editorial team to honor the many people around the world who have made Versal possible. Both journal and art gallery, this beautiful gold edition of Versal spans the range of some of today's best writing and art. It is now available at select bookshops and online at www.versaljournal.org/versalten. About Versal Versal is published in Amsterdam each May. Its editors hail from Canada, Russia, the UK, the USA and the Netherlands, and are led by American poet Megan M. Garr. A publication celebrating translocal intersections and cross-cultural dialogue, Versal is internationally renowned for the quality of work published by up-and-coming as well as established writers, and for its strong attention to design and production values.

Crag and I worked together all through the 1980s, both professionally and a= rtistically. We used Crag=E2=80=99s knowledge of cameras and photographic = techniques to create our shared oeuvre.

Comments: To: Michael Rothenberg MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Dear Friends of 100 Thousand Poets for Change, Good news! We have exceeded our Kickstarterfundraising campaign goal and we still have ten more days left to keep raising funds. We greatly appreciate all your generous support! http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/377638302/100-thousand-poets-for-change-headquarters-event As you can imagine it takes a lot more than $2,500 to run a global campaign. As you know, we set our original goal for $2,500. And we set our fundraising goal for Kickstarter pretty low knowing it is a hard time in our economy to be asking for money. The additional funds that we receive by the end of the campaign on June 7th will help us expand the 100 Thousand Poets for Change event overall. We have until June 7th, just 9 more days in our 100TPC Fundraising Campaign and we can't wait until it's over so we can stop asking you for money! There's a lot of work that goes into organizing 100 Thousand Poets for Change, ie., building and maintaining the 100tpc.org website, creating and managing the Livestream hub for September 29th, signing up new organizers and expanding general community outreach, creating and mailing press releases to media to over 10,000 media outlets around the world, and of course, preparing the media archives of all of your events for Stanford University so that September 29 will be a day documented and remembered in history. Please visit our Kickstarter campaign and donate! http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/377638302/100-thousand-poets-for-change-headquarters-event After our Kickstarterfundraising campaign is over we will focus entirely on September 29 events, and work directly with organizers and participants to make sure that the world knows about all the hard work being done by everyone, and about what is being accomplished in communities world-wide with poetry, music and art! Here are just a few examples of the events that we will be able to broadcast world-wide, with the help of your donations, on our 100 Thousand Poets for Change Livestream hub. In *Pasadena, CA* Tibetan poets and musicians will perform to bring *awareness of the Tibetan culture* that is on the brink of extinction and to raise concerns about imprisoned poets and writers. Poets in *Mexico* will organize and broadcast *the first inter-high-school Spoken Word Fest* in Mexico City. In *Tunisia* there will be a show on the Avenue Habib BourGuiba with music and poetry during the day. Children will participate with song as well. A poetry evening will follow in a cultural-space along with a book exhibition, and two musical groups. In *New Orleans, Louisiana* musicians and poets will bring the youth, arts and music community together, with a day and night of entertainment by *10 blues bands* performing to raise money for the Musicians Clinic, to focus on providing health and social services support for musicians in need. A great festival in *Strumica, Macedonia* will bring together poets and storytellers, musicians and artists from all over the country. In Strumica they will speak about the many problems they face as a country and *promote a more peaceful and sustainable planetary cultural heritage* via poetic actions, readings, workshops and music concerts.
