Bob Grumman's comments on my visual poetry
in reference to work published in the bleed 0.1. "First up is Amanda Earl, with a three-piece suite of concrete poetry (i.e., producing a viso-aesthetic effect through the use of typography only). Based on passages of “The Song of Solomon,” it begins with one consisting of a set of three stacks each of which contains the words, “My beloved is mine, and I am his: he feeds among the lilies,” in alphabetical order, and three more with the same words except for “am” and “the” in the same order. These latter are perpendicular to, and on top, of the other set. Trust me, the resulting gestalt captures–and renews–all that the original song celebrated. The sequence’s two other poems are equally effective."

March End Prill - Bryan Sentes : black milk

in this occasional series, i intend to illustrate, sort of, lines from poems that stand out for me. in other words, i see the colours & have to articulate. i don't know how interesting this is to anyone else, but it helps me.
Sentes' book, by the way, is full of these, sparkling quirky bits that set my mind a tingle.
