I liked the fluidity of your language. But I’m still running amok on any kind of narrative. In brief terms could you relay a sense of your poetics. I know you are seriously committed to your writing and I would like to be able to appreciate it all the more than simply fragments here and there even though occasionally the entire poem is accessible for me. re you familiar with Charles Olson and The Black Mountain school, i.e. Roberty Creely–one of my teachers, and Robert Duncan to name two?>KB
