My latest book is out now from Mount Diablo Books and available thru Amazon. After a book of lineated poems and a book of fables, essentially prose-poems, this is a book of factions which combine elements of fiction and nonfiction. The contents include:
The Null-Word
I Am Joe’s Senile Psychosis
Cant
Home Sick
The Two State Solution
Trigger Warnings
Taylor Swift Descends to the Nether World
The Big Two-Hearted Truman
Caitlin Jenner’s Clitorectomy
Notes by Marjorie Perloff
The book also includes the following collages and concrete poems:
Xero Tolerance
Eat Different
Conspicuous by Its Absence
“The Chilling Coils Are in the Walls”
I Blindness
Moving Target Nature / Nurture
Dawkin’ ’round
Home Run
From Marjorie Perloff’s notes to the volume: “Indeed, récriture is the logical form of ‘writing’ in an age of literally mobile or transferable text – text that can be readily moved from one digital site to another or from print to screen, that can be appropriated, transformed, or hidden by all sorts of means and for all sorts of purposes. This is not Pound’s ‘Make it New!’ but Jasper Johns’s ‘Take an object. Do something to it. Do something else to it.’”
