this flat space .



maurice chayet my old buddy resides in france and the whole business of flat spaces emergin and dictionaires Diction-- of the Same.

this causes anxiety in the picture. angela noticed this.

angela being the set-designer painter who worked with Resnais. Deleuze discusses this problem of space in one of the two books on Cinema, except which one does not come to mind. Ive read so much, too much?
"the world is too much for us..."

Portrait of Chaim Soutine..( Staatsgalerie, Stuttgart, Germany. Modigliani)

And Chaim never stopped seeing hookers
even after he made a bundle ...
brothel boy to the end
bitter bucking in the tune of death
used to eating potatoes he stuck to'em
and he wrangled the tooth of it
each canvas kick-ass
in the death's garbage bin
the din never wearing down...

or something like that....

she's like that when pleasures stalk her night

tickling the pin sin of waking
hugging me like a lover

Dial M for Murder Minerva


To a Captive Owl_
The Poems of Henry Timrod
by Henry Timrod

"I should be dumb before thee, feathered sage! And gaze upon thy phiz with solemn awe, But for a most audacious wish to gauge The hoarded wisdom of thy learned craw.
Art thou, grave bird! so wondrous wise indeed? Speak freely, without fear of jest or gibe -- What is thy moral and religious creed? And what the metaphysics of thy tribe?
A Poet, curious in birds and brutes, I do not question thee in idle play; What is thy station? What are thy pursuits? Doubtless thou hast thy pleasures -- what are THEY?
Or is 't thy wont to muse and mouse at once, Entice thy prey with airs of meditation, And with the unvarying habits of a dunce, To dine in solemn depths of contemplation?
There may be much -- the world at least says so -- Behind that ponderous brow and thoughtful gaze; Yet such a great philosopher should know, It is by no means wise to think always.
And, Bird, despite thy meditative air, I hold thy stock of wit but paltry pelf -- Thou show'st that same grave aspect everywhere, And wouldst look thoughtful, stuffed, upon a shelf.
I grieve to be so plain, renown"ed Bird -- Thy fame 's a flam, and thou an empty fowl; And what is more, upon a Poet's word I'd say as much, wert thou Minerva's owl.
So doff th' imposture of those heavy brows; They do not serve to hide thy instincts base -- And if thou must be sometimes munching MOUSE, Munch it, O Owl! with less profound a face. "

randall's woman at the washington zoo

I don't know why this poem has come back to haunt me. If haunting is the right
way to describe this remembering. Of his voice and its poignant pain its
cut on the edgeness of feeling which few readers today are able, at least
in my experience, able or wanting to give to a poem. And its recital.
People confuse loud railing or anger with a demonstration
of feeling in a readout loud version of a poem.Or they confuse
the inarticulate unwritten sounds of emotion with poetry.
THe voice of the poem as spoken entity is always
different from the written one, and can be misleading.
There's a weird essay, by a long dead American poet critic,
a fellow who was considered by a lot of people at that time,
as being some sort of specially gifted, and whose name 'escapes' me as
I write. he wrote this criticism of T.S.Eliot's own reading of the
Wasteland claiming Eliot read it the the wrong way... I was fascinated by the idea ...and still am. AS it's a daring idea and provokes many thoughts,
about the idea of authenticity in reading pomes, and the whole idea
of the author being the authority. Pehraps this is the case, in a few
instances but not in all or even the majority of cases.



I had not used this blog for a week or so while I was changing things
and blogger is forcing me to use word verification in my own blog.
Pretty weird _ it's almost a metaphor in itself, forcing someone wriitng a
poetry blog to do word verification to make sure their own blog is not a spam
blog. It's also frustrating.






The opening lines of The Woman at the Washington Zoo


"The saris go by me from the embassies.

Cloth from the moon. Cloth from another planet.
They look back at the leopard like the leopard."



The almost feminization of the image of leopard. Who can say what makes
an image feline or feminine, or a masculine mask?

some word of the ghost text

PoetryisawayofLife---------------------------------------------------------------------- Some words of the ghost TeXt

Ghost Guattari was haunting Mona, and Jill passed then by the window slowing snowed her bodies into the pavement, missing the Invention of God, and the belly button that unhooks to leave the arse falling away...v oids upon voids dripping its ooze and primal slosh.Here were the words Of Uncle Guattari`s :I am God most of the time when I dont have a headache, when Ithink of everything and nothing, when I'm not slipping down any Satanic slope... Then I understand quite well that one might settle oneself downin God or that one might settle him on a pedestal. I will not repr oach --- Jill was happier to read this than any day.anyone for that.On the other hand, I can conceive that artists may feel obliged to - Yes on the other hand, of Mona`s double delivery articulations, there was an arcane =--uproot that sort of comfort. Consider neuroleptic divinity; consider the vertigo of abolition; consider the extreme moment of creation.Is that to say that God might only be the privelige of thesimple-minded? An atheist like Pascal screams out God like a wild beast. And that is intelligence stripped bare.It would be advisable to distinguish God from belief. It is from the latter that all fool[folly]-ery stems. God is only a spell cast upon existence. He comes along like hail, sometimes dew or storm.
