____________________ . one has to hear a voice a strong enough one one suited that is to occassion of (the) reading at hand and often that is not the case
__________--changes one's head
he reads it outside of myself thus
I am able to hear what I could not before
as my head was caught in the taillights of the poem
--course this doesnt work with every poem nor with any voice
there are a lot, i guess thousand s that could read better but they dont as they never learned
or were show a better way to elocute and perform whats before their eyes before them
So then One can ask before any given text (of Poetry) where is it taking place best and how and how is my relation to it?
i ask this and state as its something i connect t o the work i do
between the virtual an d real readings of a text
an the aural visual ./head /virtual blog thing and the difference , of course, between the wet printed text of any kinb, and its Screened version

' ...I remember reading that Hart Crane wrote at times to the sound of records because he liked the stimulus and this pushed him to a kind of openness that he could use. In any case, the necessary environment is that which secures the artist in the way that lets him be in the world in a most fruitful manner.'
Robert Creely 1968
