chip under the coffee table. It was morning. A Tuesday. I had eaten a
bowl of chips the previous night while watching television. The lone
chip had likely fallen from the bowl. I placed the cup of tea I was
carrying on a coaster on the coffee table, and reached down for the
potato chip. <br /><br /><div> It was easy to spot the light brown
arch against the grey of the living room carpet. The chip lay between
two small piles of books under the table, so I had to turn my hand
sideways and fish it out, using my index and middle finger in a scissor
manoeuvre. I set down the still intact potato chip on another coaster
and looked at it while I drank my tea.<br /><br /></div><div> It was a new
flavour from the manufacturer, sour cream, onion and chilli, and last
night was the first time I had eaten it. The chip on the coaster was
speckled with red, white, and green flakes, each about the size of a
period, though there was no uniformity in the shape of the flakes. The
red was chilli, the white, likely, salt but I was unsure of what the
green could be. <br /><br /></div><div> In the middle of the chip was a grey
scar – a long strand of carpet fuzz. I reached over, pinched it off the
chip and blew it from my fingers. The carpet fuzz descended slowly back
down to the floor.</div><div><br /> The chip was about the size and shape
of the bowl of a tablespoon and was finely ridged – as opposed to wavy,
broad crinkles – with an occasional blister, created during the frying
process, disrupting the neat parallel lines. I counted sixteen peaks and
seventeen valleys in all.</div><div> <br />When I looked at it closer,
in the dim, morning winter light coming through the window, I could see
that it wasn’t the same pale brown colour throughout. There were slight
burned areas around its middle and its edges. The chip also had a
pronounced curve so that if you held it down on one end and let it go,
it began rocking back and forth like a see-saw – for a few seconds at
least.</div><div> <br />I took a sip of my tea and picked up the chip. It
felt furry from all the flavouring powder – an unpleasant sensation. It
also felt taut, and fragile. I placed it back down on the coaster and
positioned a finger on each of its raised curled ends. If I applied even
the smallest downward pressure the chip would split in two or more
pieces.</div> <br />I kept my fingers on the edges and slid it
around the coaster. It made a surprisingly loud scratching sound. When I
finished drinking my tea, I took the chip to the kitchen, opened the
garbage can, and threw it on top of a heap of old coffee grounds and a
tangle of potato peels from yesterday's supper.</div>Scudhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05327572568340093285noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2096510937058499607.post-10625306154453650752024-03-09T10:39:00.000-08:002024-03-09T10:39:00.723-08:00Two Poems by Tim Frank<div style="text-align: left;"><b><span style="color: black; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Watching, Waiting</span></b><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 12.0pt;"><b><span style="color: black; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">

the lamppost on my street<br />
with a cap and surgical mask<br />
exuding a unique air of mystery—<br />
this can’t be a covid thing.<br />
There isn’t a bird in the sky<br />
that could extract nails from her eyes,<br />
and the kids marching through puddles like millipedes are stung by her medical
gaze.<br />
One time, gazing at her molten skin<br />
I realized<br />
she lives at the apex of a volcano and<br />
fiends to eat me whole.<br />
Her shopping bags<br />
overflow with alien crops,<br />
her deathly frontal lobes, glimmer.<br />
But who will watch the prisoners when she’s gone?<br />
I guess these are the streets where it’s ok<br />
to truly lose your mind.</span><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"></span></p>

car drives along, under the clouds, the ones that are violent. It does
so even when I lift my foot, forgetting to set it back down. The sky is
dark. There is a burst of lightning, which
is sudden. It is cold. Up ahead is a patch of black and green. I talk
aloud, looking through the windshield. The wipers are slow to work. The
wipers get stuck. Do you think it will let up? I ask. Should I pull off?
The windows are down. There is rain. You
do not talk back. The seats are all empty. I think of where to go.
Perhaps off the cliff? I ask. The roads here, they are open. You know I
love you, I say. You know I miss you, I say. The clouds are violent.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;">My
best job was my first: several summers of working in my family’s
bakery/restaurant. It was the post-WWII passion project of my grandfather, who
died before I was born, and whose father had a sort-of-similar business for decades
before. Everyone in my family who lived close enough worked there, too. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;">I
started this job when I was 11. Through it, I internalized the blurring of work
and life (solid preparation for academia) and the importance of chosen family.
My aunt taught me to decorate cakes using a photo projector. I delivered
wedding cakes to hotels and baked goods to nursing homes with my dad and uncle.
I learned customer service and how to work a 10-hour day, use an industrial
bread slicer, and count back change (still a valuable skill!). In the
restaurant, waitresses (always women) who had worked there longer than I had
been alive taught me how to serve the regulars: construction workers and bus
drivers (always men) who were my friends in the way that adults can befriend
children. They were all family to me; I missed them when summer ended and I
miss them now, many years after they’ve retired or passed away. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;">Routine
tasks taught me about others’ lived experiences. I served customers who bought
birthday cakes with food stamps (then, printed food coupons with overly-strict
rules about how much change we could give). Every week, I prepared a specific
loaf of bread and pastry for the first Holocaust survivor I met. I spent hours
chatting with my favorite maintenance man while he greased the pans and mopped
the floors. After work, I watched my dad teach him how to read. The many people
I served, worked alongside, and learned from over those years cultivated in me
a deep empathy and curiosity for the human condition.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;">This
job shaped my notion of work as a place of learning, growth, and community, and
it taught me how to integrate work and life (even if problematic) to meet my
goals. There were many frustrating times, of course, but they aren’t worth
mentioning. I loved this job, even when I didn’t.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;">//</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;">To
select the worst job is almost paralyzing, with so many strong contenders. I
could describe the dating service that was a pyramid scheme to exploit the
emotionally vulnerable or the academic department that was a toxic hellscape.
But the worst job is New Job, the one that sounded promising, that offered an
authentic off-ramp from some of the unbearables before it, and that I wanted to
like, but whose day-to-day was a tremendous disappointment. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;">New
Job started because the former job that I loved offered no viable path out of
precarity. A colleague described New Job as “a gift to [herself],” which made
me too uncomfortable to admit that for me this was not a gift, but a compromise
for the social, political, and economic hardships that I think will intensify
in the coming years. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;">The
job was supposed to be a way to apply my expertise and have work-life balance.
But the work itself was more a slog than an impactful application of my
expertise. New Job placed restrictions on my personal and professional life,
only some that I knew of in advance, and that left me with feelings of deep
sadness and isolation. The work could be so tedious that life became very
small. Alone at my desk, my actual skills atrophied as I combed through databases,
filled in spreadsheets, and frustratingly read and re-read the manual’s passive
voice to decipher who it is that approves, or decides, or sends.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;">In
absolute terms, New Job was far from the worst. The organization has a good
mission, diverse workforce, and strong leadership. I had much less precarity,
appropriate compensation, and some flexibility. Somehow, I was incredibly
fortunate to endure New Job’s wrong fit every day. But it, too, was
unsustainable, with no clear road for where to go next, if anywhere.</span></p>

its title from an elliptical text of the same name by Žižek—itself a remix on
the concept Deleuze and Guattari remix from Artaud—and it, this review, leaves
Žižekian thought alone unanswered at the door in much the same way Kahlil
Crawford’s hybrid chapbook <i>Organ City</i> states and forgoes justification
of its own title and relations of referents therein and thereon. </span><span style="font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: black; font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">¶ It's all from
the ground up, isn’t it, what we call art? How grammars visual and syntactic
bubble to the surface like oil? Only the redactions are the result of
dispensationalism. Poets take themselves seriously for the same good reason any
craftsperson in a dying form takes their craft seriously: it’s dying. Not dead,
but dying; will die. The mixed mediaification in <i>Organ City</i> isn’t as
powerful as to stand for a panacea for poetry’s plight in threat of extinction:
it’s not that serious. Neither a general social anhedonia nor a lack of a smart
readership is to blame for the threat. It’s just that there’s too many of us;
too many poets and not enough readers. Introducing a visual component (with
more bite than say a Kaurian sketch of a succulent) might infuse a more robust
sense of the poetic scale the poet has in mind, the meeting point of the Venn
diagram’s little circles of grammars (1) poetic, (2), visual, (3)
generative. </span><span style="font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: black; font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">¶ Depending on
how the conversation has gone and is going, I will usually admit to <i>Finnigans
Wake</i> as my favourite poem: it’s win-win—either my interlocutor is familiar
enough with <i>Finnigans Wake</i> to correctly identify it as a novel, or,
rarer, and even better for their sake, hasn’t heard of it, and I may introduce
them to what it is and what it isn’t, my being as didactic as a pharisee. If
color commentators uses <i>poetic </i>as an adjective when ejaculating over a
counterattack, whatever poetic import is read is more alive than it was before,
is expanding the etymological umbrella, and is, poetry is, as a noun, good for
more than the stuff of forced end rhymes, and that which makes <i>Finnigans
Wake</i> and an Allen Iverson-lead fast break and <i>Organ City</i> by Kahlil
Crawford <i>poetic </i>is their respective urgencies; where the use of the
poetic is less a choked umbrella and more a drink from a fire hydrant is where
the canvas is filled. Bonsai-sized but with horror vacui décor. The encositive
(FW, 27), the prescriptive grammarian fears misoccupied space, regulates the
city squares, restricts, monitors acts of delinquency, makes sacred the
categorical, is always asterisking, runs arrhythmic soulless executive
commands; Organ City is a city that sleeps. The fever dreams of local history
precipitating over the text color the present. A thesis with elements of poetic
grammar and with elements of pedagogical grammar and with elements of visual
grammar; as an Anders-streben, a comprehensive grammar is as much an object of
catachresis or objection of catachresis as an organ city is—the self without an
i (cf. the body without organs) (organ[i]city)—in living; motile, cellular,
unbalanced, possible—Crawford suggests inevitable. A sense of self is
confused-fused in the text (but not in an esoteric way, nor even a biotechnic
way). The self seems to be its taste, which, of course, isn’t sufficiently a
self, or I should say it is obvious taste isn’t organs’ sole function. <i>Organ
City </i>approaches the dancefloor with the right attitude, just adept
enough to neither embarrass their partner nor seem out of place, and maybe the
traditionalists prefer the white space of their Saint-Armand paper, and the
design fleshes out the vision, but the execution is less than the sum of its
idealisation. Kahlil Crawford proposes and examines three rhythms in R1THYM
(sic): meta, motion, and plastic. The moment reads like memoir in a sparse
approximation of verse, where meta is “less about time / and more about
movement” and is either generative for or by EDM genres the likes of which you
can browse on </span><span style="font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><span><a href="http://rateyourmusic.com">rateyourmusic.com</a></span></span><span style="color: black; font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"> at your leisure. If you had to
guess which films the motion-rhythm begins and ends with, you’d be correct. The
influence of Italian Futurism, cubism, and Afrofuturism is quite clear in
the plates. It’s of as much significance to today’s blank verse as Bryan
Johnson’s plasma transfusions: just something to talk about. The Paul Klee
influence is also clear in the typographical arrows, and much like any good
mixed-media manifesto, we’re met with more square brackets than question marks.
And isn’t this how a conversation unfolds? Finitely? (And doesn’t the connotation
for <i>unfold</i> differ so from <i>unravel</i>?) Threads are and end.
Suggestive rather than comprehensive, all fires are ephemeral embers from a
Hestian axiom, and the hybrid owes its origin as much to the wind as to a mind,

the ghost notes of the body’s rhythms, <i>Organ City’</i>s is a light touch.
Demotic; clastic; democratic in the sense that Crawford makes no distinction
between the vital and non-vital organs, the self-life of the not-[i] is present
perfect; what’s there has been preserved; what’s vital is what’s happened and
what happens happens “sans emotionality in the midst of the digital
monetization of conglomeration” (OC, 23). If the shift from organicity to
digitopia is inevitable <i>and</i> will educe “transcendental languages,
localities, and emotions” (ibid), the future-self is present perfect has been
stitched from one alterity into another alterity into a user, but is “less
about time / & more about movement →” (OC, 15), metarhythm having been
substituted for the rm shell command to remove the directories of the
unqualified as such; metarhythm having been programmed to “help salvage and
redefine our humanity (OC, 11); this is the transcendent, not the
transcendental. Note that <i>Organ City</i> neither confirms nor denies if
arhythm is an ingredient of metarhythm. To ascribe transcendental bones is to
use generative grammar, to vacate the site of the ontic and end the use of
descriptive grammar, and to enter the imaginal, the poem. Futurity is less
successfully preserved than Crawford’s perspectival historitcity: Crawford’s
taste is futurity’s ischemia, Primary User. One can practically feel the heat
radiating off of these lines in a parallel “Ghostly Bonding by Kinetic” by Will
Alexander and his stethoscope one city over: “Since the living body persists /
as strange accelerated crimson / what of its post-biology through ideas through
ghostly bonding with itself as kinetic?” and, from the loupe of “Hypersensitive
Emanation”: “Not broad or gregarious inaccuracy but refined exploratory drift
evolved as proto-micro diagnosis. At this plane of sensitivity a dispatch of
nerves explore themselves via vigorous angles that subsist as intermingled
wave-lengths.” But, for all his gestural isms, doesn’t Will Alexander seem the
paragon of corpuscular sagacity? For the purposes of this review we need
not bother him from his mountain perch any further, but see how a certain set
of acuity is unbothered? Un-urgent? <i>Non-rhythmic?</i> The images act as
adits but not quite intestines: trancitive (FW, 594) but not
transitive-digestive, and in this azygous transitive-not-digestive trancitive
loci is made a way-poitedness, as urgent as a subway-stop of meaning,
foreground and background bleeding together in exigency. This effect is in the
writing. The metarhythm is the anxiety to encyber the spatial. It’s by
gut-feel. The reading is less fraught with ingestion—the Symplegates of
transitive-digestive hid behind the literary curtain—and more memoir than
ontic-technocratic scholarship, <i>Organ Cit</i>y’s bathos is its modality.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: black; font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">¶ The manifesto
as concept album as chapbook can occasionally work as a gestalt, but <i>Organ
City’s </i>moments of actual poetry are tepid. The process which
carbonates tepefies, or something like that. We neither take our coke warm nor
our coffee bubbly. The poetic lilt comes out a bit tinny. When reading the work
in total as poetry the work warps like attempting to portage a canoe before
it’s set or settled into the home of its new wooden shape, the hybridity now as
awkward as dancing with a wooden limb. How flat that meta-rhythm is greatest
hits not deepest cuts: we’re whispered what we already knew. </span><span style="font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"></span></p>

to some farm, horses’ teeth grass in a season <br />
of no blankets strapped to bodies in mourning. <br />
<br />
A pig scratching rib-chub on a hayloft ladder, <br />
and there, between toes, a nugget of garlic<br />
to sooth an itch. Your knees are on <br />
<br />
a cracking shower mat you thought we threw away,<br />
rolled out at the crawl space mouth<br />
where earth is dark and rain moves it to mud.<br />
<br />
A pipe leaks irrigant, a root <br />
giving its younger brother a noogie, <br />
a valve acting like it’s a dam, <br />
<br />
a city fleet en route on some planting day. <br />
For the area of intentional garden, <br />
our mothers go to succulent vendors, <br />
<br />
landscape tenders, haul surplus<br />
amended earth to cover ground. You hide hands<br />
under the house, where palms get enflamed <br />
<br />
from some force task. A sprinkler goes <br />
off in an hour near noon, <br />
and everything it touches singed by sun.<br />

together—a conga line mosh pit. red lights hitting heads. if one hand

cut off. winning in a road, and an arrival home some few moments later,
without having missed those commercials that run before the previews

each of their little hearts that beats, then beats, <br />
<br />
and starts over again. The marine layer this early<br />
swaddling our region the way a yawn makes a song<br />
<br />
of abundant wind: mostly silence. It’s in that space<br />
you invent, and reinvent the hot shower <br />
<br />
in a light that’s never dissolved, claim it clearly <br />
like ice water in tall glasses, and your toes<br />
<br />
in the narrow nails of grass that barricade a park’s sprinkler<br />
head with soaked shanks. You can hear you think <br />
<br />
about your rituals that rumble, that peace of repetition,<br />
dependable as a stone in the middle of sweet drupe.<br />
<br />
Count on it, and the clicking of its bounce on concrete<br />
down the steps, along the gutter. You can hear it long.<br />

town is a rock’s little dance atop a toilet paper roll <br />

a freeway shelters, arterial ramps, and faded line paint.<br />
Fingers that make sounds also stretch <br />
<br />
their knuckle collection, or’re tough meat mounds <br />
of hand that rest half closed in what feels like<br />
<br />
the safest space between palm and fist. <br />
And gravity holds you, so reluctantly you know<br />
<br />
you could go flying at any moment. You’re fragile<br />
as a homemade microphone, a piezo held <br />
<br />
to a beer can’s bottom with gum, an uncomplex system <br />
that draws a mouth from a body, it’s soft chitter <br />
<br />
that translates to a city that reaches up to clean mess off of us. <br />
A deep shadow, a walking sweat, is thrown<br />
<br />
from a car: an egg you can catch<br />
in a sling of bandana gently torn of blanket</div><div style="text-align: left;"> </div><div style="text-align: left;"> </div><div style="text-align: left;"><b><a href="https://www.adamdeutsch.com/" target="_blank">Adam Deutsch </a></b><br /></div>Scudhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05327572568340093285noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2096510937058499607.post-33707297034514606472023-11-17T03:56:00.000-08:002023-11-17T05:02:10.886-08:00Grandpaland, or the Isle of Jean by Lard Alec<div style="text-align: left;"><!--[if gte mso 9]><xml>

<![endif]--><div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;">Whenever I ask my mother-in-law, Jean, a question that
requires only a brief, factual response, she answers with a story. I’ve even
tried to ask her yes-or-no questions, hoping to nip the inevitable onslaught of
flashbacks, flash-forwards, and breakneck pronoun shifts right in the bud. But
to no avail. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></div>
<p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;">Fortunately, I’ve never had to ask her a high-stakes
question during a time of crisis, though I can imagine it clearly.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="margin-left: 0.5in; mso-add-space: auto;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;">(<i>Lard Alec arrives home to a
burning house and meets Jean in the driveway. They cough mightily and dodge
flaming debris as the scene unfolds</i>.)</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;">Lard Alec: Jean, where are the kids?</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="margin-left: 0.5in; mso-add-space: auto;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;">Jean: Well, Colton wanted to make a
house out of matchsticks and Jenna Marie said, “That’s not fair, I want to make
a house out of matchsticks, too!” And I said, “You’re too young to make a
matchstick house” and, anyway, what’s his name, Steve? The guy with the
wheelbarrow store on Logjam Road? Well, I knew <i>he</i> kept a bunch of
matchsticks in some old buckets out in his shed. And <i>she</i>, his daughter,
I forget her name—you know, she traded in the car? It’s like a Subaru but it
only has one door? Well, I got an email from her—or I <i>thought</i> it was
her, but I guess it was someone else sending a, whatdoyacallit, a SPOOF-mail,
and now my phone has a virus and whenever I press the on button it takes a
picture and makes a sound like an airhorn?</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;">Lard Alec: Jean! Are the kids in the house? What room
are they in?</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="margin-left: 0.5in; mso-add-space: auto;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;">Jean: Well, Steve only had the one
kid—the daughter I was telling you about—but she had a son, <i>Torrance</i>, I
remember <i>his </i>name, I don’t know why (<i>laughing</i>). Well, he wanted
to be a tattoo artist, but he went into the soup business instead…</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;">My other great fantasy is that she bears witness to a crime
of historical dimensions—perhaps she takes a bus tour to New York and finds
herself at the Museum of Modern Art where a pair of David Niven lookalikes, clad
in black, creep in, create a diversion, and then steal Van Gogh’s <i>Starry
Night</i> off the wall while everyone’s looking the other way. Everyone except Jean.
</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;">Afterward, investigators from a dozen agencies and
journalists from around the world swarm her house and ask her to just <i>describe
</i>what she<i> saw</i>. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="margin-left: 0.5in; mso-add-space: auto;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;">Jean: Well, my daughter thought I
should take one of these bus trips to New York since I’ve wanted to go for…forever,
basically, and I’m always talking about seeing a show, like that one time we
saw <i>The New Jersey Boys</i> off Broadway. In <i>Albany</i>. And it was SO.
GREAT. And she said, “Don’t drive, you’ll just get lost.” So, I said, fine,
I’ll take the bus, but when I went down to the bus station to buy a ticket,
they told me they don’t schedule bus tours—that’s someone else. You have to go
through like a trip provider or something (<i>shaking her head</i>)? “Go ask
someone at your senior home if they know anything about bus trips to New York.”
And I talk to Jan sometimes at lunch—she’s kind of (<i>moving her hands around
in an ambiguous but emphatic gesture</i>), I don’t know, LOOPY. But she knows
Mike, the CEO, and Mike tells her everything, like when they’re gonna start
renovating the East Wing apartments—that’s where I live, so I want to know. But
Jan knows other stuff, too, because Mike and her are like <i>this</i>. “So,
Jan,” I say one day at lunch. “What’s this I’m hearing about bus trips?” </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;">One
by one, the cameras lose power; microphones wilt; cops shuffle off with sad notebooks
full of goop. </span></p>
<p align="center" class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;">~ <br /></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;">One of Jean’s signature phrases is <i>load down</i>,
as in, “I’m going to <i>load down</i> some pictures from my camera onto your
computer.” If you hear this and say something reflexively pedantic like, “Oh,
you mean <i>down</i>load?” She’ll just reply, “Yeah, I LOADED DOWN some
pictures onto your COMPUTER. Look, here’s one of Colton making a sandcastle out
of seaweed. A seaweed castle, I guess. But then Jenna Marie comes over in this
next picture and says, ‘Why does <i>he </i>get all the seaweed!? That’s not
fair!’” </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span>My friend’s mother likes to say <i>download</i>
in place of <i>down low</i>, as in, “I’m keeping it on the download,” by which
she means the Q.T. Another friend’s father refers to texts as <i>phone emails</i>.
And my grandfather calls ESPN <i>ESP</i>, arthritis <i>Arthur Itis</i>, and HBO
<i>Home Box</i>. Both he and my mother-in-law refer to the regional grocery
store chain Wegman’s as <i>Weymann’s</i> (pronounced WHYmans). All of which is
to say that Jean, despite her peculiar facility for coughing up unsolicited rapids
of blather and brain breaking neology, is not alone.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span>Now, granted, people like my mother
make it well into their seventies without acquiring Jean’s or my grandfather’s
funhouse vocabularies and narrative pratfalls, so these hallucinatory
linguistic traits are not, solely, attributable to age. Jean has lived a long life
full of whirligig, context free hyper-narration, and my grandfather, despite
spending <i>decades</i> as an English teacher, has always been entirely too
impatient and habitually expulsive to speak in anything but his peculiar back-alley
peyote language of malapropisms and homespun solecisms. He just doesn’t slow
down enough to properly listen to anyone or think things through. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span>Nonetheless, it is clear that, at
some point, a merely eccentric idiom can mature, or decline, in shocking ways,
and there seems to be a point somewhere in late middle-age where linguistic
idiosyncrasies morph into new looking-glass tongues all their own. I figure I
have about 10 to 15 years before this happens to me. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span>For my part, I mumble, curse, and take
long pauses between words where the world turns into a gently swaying ship, and
I’m in the crow’s nest, looking for word-land, seeing nothing but sea. While
once my voice was fairly deep, it’s since grown faint, crackly, and a little
dry. I repeat myself more than I used to, and my memory is fuzzy, worn down by
fatherhood and old dodgeball injuries. By my early 60s, I might speak
exclusively in staticky bursts of forgetful profanity whenever I’m not
absolutely forced by circumstances, if even then, to act otherwise. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span>Should I get to this point (call it
Grandpaland, or the Isle of Jean), I will exist in a deepening privacy of
expression. I will grow increasingly adamant in my cryptic notions and turns of
phrase, wondering why everyone is looking at me that way but never bothering to
ask. I will be impenetrable and unassuageable, driving my speech before me like
a plow through miles of undifferentiated snow. It is something to watch out
for, though, of course, no one in Grandpaland knows quite where they are.</span></p>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="text-align: left;"><p style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span>I am not talking about Alzheimer’s.
My father has that, and his speech is a broken promise, a stuttering machine
missing half its parts. It is too ghostly and whispery to revel in, even when
it is funny. Like my grandfather and Jean, he is incorrigible, but he lacks the
consistency to say the same wrong thing over and over and over again. </span></p></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="text-align: left;"><p style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span>The great moral of my 40s is that
the dream of education, of edification, is over. Try as I might, I cannot add
any volumes to the library of my mind. Or, rather, as soon as I add one, two
others are eaten by shadows and dust. I can change, little by little, but I
will never improve. Nonetheless, I can still see myself as others see me, if
only just. But once you make landfall on the Isle of Jean, or your own version thereof, the era of
assimilation is over. You and your language become an island filled with
toppling coconuts, sun-dazed lizards, and wobbly, flightless birds. You are a
sovereign there, though you are also marooned. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></p></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span>Lardland will not be as lush and
colorful as the Isle of Jean, nor will it be as tetchy and gruff as
Grandpaland, a smog-choked little city of pickle barrels, butcher shops, and
mines. Instead, it will be an island with a little schoolhouse where I’m neither
the teacher nor the student, and I’m trying to figure out what to call it, the
thing I do there, and making up a new word when the old one won’t come. </span></div>

I have not forgotten his violet eyes, at once secretive and sad. “It’s been too
long,” he says. He kisses me deeply, guiltily, in the shaded driveway. The heat
of the summer when we met has weakened. Now, the eastside air is even, warm,
and soft like the inside of his forearms resting helplessly around my waist. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in;"><span style="font-family: times;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in;"><span style="font-family: times;">Like old friends we pick up where we left off but there’s a
thin veil between us and I don’t want to be the first to move it. He is guarded
and measured when he speaks, but in his silence, he is clear as the full moon. <i>There
is someone else.</i></span> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in;"><span style="font-family: times;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in;"><span style="font-family: times;">He takes me to a dive bar where the amber light turns his
violet eyes murky, obscuring his thoughts. I lean into this moment where I can
be spared the truth and play pretend. He keeps his right arm around me all
night long. When it’s not draped around my waist, it’s running up my thigh.
It’s tucking hair behind my ear. It’s clutching my left hand. It becomes a part
of me, another limb, another I piece I want to protect. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in;"><span style="font-family: times;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in;"><span style="font-family: times;">We go to the photobooth and kiss. The strip comes out wet
and sulfuric. There’s a black smudge down the center, dividing us neatly, a
smokey tear that reaches all the way to my heart. “That’s so strange,” I say.
“I’ve never had one print like this.”</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in;"><span style="font-family: times;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in;"><span style="font-family: times;">At home, he unties my linen blouse and pulls it gently over
my head. He unbuttons my jeans and kisses my hips. He’s careful, or afraid,
like he’s touching hot coal. On top of me, he kisses my ears, then my lips.
“I’ve been thinking about this for weeks. I’ve missed you so much.” He moves
further and further down until all I see is violet.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in;"><span style="font-family: times;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in;"><span style="font-family: times;">He tells me about his synesthesia. That’s why he likes
shoegaze, the dreamy reverb, the harmonizing pedals, the sound you can see. I
tell him I like sound you can feel. I feel his voice like a silk sheet, and I
want him to wrap me in it. “What color
do I sound like?” I ask him in bed. He thinks deeply, his eyes suddenly still
and intentional. “Orange… no more red. Salmon, coral maybe,” he says. The
colors of sex and sunsets. Bursts of fleeting ecstasy, showstopping, chaotic.
My color, my soul, is lustful. It is impermanent. I’m not sure where he goes on
the nights he’s not here. I wonder what color she is. I wonder if she’s
iridescent, indigo, enduring. I wonder if she soothes him in her cool emerald
glow. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in;"><span style="font-family: times;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in;"><span style="font-family: times;">Later that week he is gone again, his reasons tenuous and
last minute. I go to a concert one
night, the type of dreampop that breaks your heart and mends it in one set,
only it doesn’t mend it this time. I devolve into hazy, hot tears and again, I
see violet. I get terribly drunk off well tequila and the whole night is violet
so I can’t escape it. I stumble home and
into bed without taking my clothes off.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in;"><span style="font-family: times;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in;"><span style="font-family: times;">He texted me at the concert, late, almost 11PM. “What are
you up to?” In the morning I respond, “Sorry, went to a concert. Hope you had a
nice night.” He comes over in the afternoon and we share a bottle of wine. He
grabs my waist, both his hands tepid, but gentle and safe around me, and he guides
me to the bed. On top of me, he holds my head between his hands and kisses me
but stops abruptly, serious yet abashed. He stares down at me and brushes hair
away from my eyes so I can see his clearly: violets in full bloom. Just in that
moment I can hear the feint echo of something behind them, an earnestness for
the first time. It’s just a flash, then it’s gone. He moves in me until I feel violets
growing inside, blooming from deep within, reaching my smudged heart,
permeating my red-hot soul. “I wanted you so bad last night,” he says. He makes
my name feel soft in his lips, feminizing it, like he’s holding a crepe paper
rose between his tongue and teeth. I want to feel him say it again and again
and again.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in;"><span style="font-family: times;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in;"><span style="font-family: times;">I imagine this must be how the sunset feels each evening as
people flock to appreciate her coral hues, her waning fury. Or how the fields
of violets feel, their window for blooming and pruning short, fleeting, special.
The love they must have for those brief moments of care and tenderness. Is it
so bad to just be adored for one small moment, for nothing I’ve done but for my
mere existence? To be objectified like a sunset, a flower, or a woman?</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in;"><span style="font-family: times;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in;"><span style="font-family: times;">When he climaxes, I hold his head to my chest and think <i>I
love you, I love you, I love you. </i>He leaves then, he’s stayed too long. He has plans, somewhere
to be. I wonder, then, if he goes to the iridescent girl and holds her head to
his chest and thinks <i>I love you, I love you, I love you.</i></span></p></div>Scudhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05327572568340093285noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2096510937058499607.post-18819717911616816342023-10-05T04:00:00.000-07:002023-10-05T04:58:51.820-07:00Fudge by Andrew Weatherhead<p><!--[if gte mso 9]><xml>

<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Fudge</i> (Publishing Genius, 2023), Andrew
Weatherhead serves up minimalist poetry that strives to efficiently sublimate
the mundanity of life. Weatherhead is largely successful in this endeavor, almost
sneakily so; this is a disarming collection that rewards careful rereading.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12pt;">A
note about the structure. <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Fudge</i> is comprised
of seven sections, or seven long poems, if you prefer, some of which are in turn
comprised of shorter titled poems. The poems themselves are so short and swift that
the entire book can easily be read in a sitting. Weatherhead opens the first section,
titled “Hollow Points (Sept 11, 2016)”, with “Sessility”. It’s quoted here in full
to give a sense of the aesthetics: <br /></span></p>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12pt;"><span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span>Walking around the city</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12pt;">Hoping I don’t see</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12pt;">Anyone I know, old</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12pt;">Air conditioner water</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12pt;">Coming down on 14th Street</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12pt;">Overcast, high of 88, wires</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12pt;">Connected to a head</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12pt;">On Mott, a scab</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12pt;">The shape of Queens</span></div>
<p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12pt;">Clear,
casual, and an invitation for the reader to wonder what we’re doing here. You
could read it as 21st century imagism or affectless city-dweller
cool, or as a critique of that rather lazy pose as the title implies. After
all, who wants to be stuck like a polyp? <br /></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12pt;">The
loaded date also suggests that there’s more happening than simple descriptions,
putting one in mind of Williams’s (in)famous red wheelbarrow and the hidden
things of life that may be at stake. Indeed, as “Hollow Points” progresses, the
poems dig deeper, strike harder, and read more and more like long senryus, offering
readers a sly, darkly amused look at a life scrabbling for substance.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12pt;">And
that, I think, comes to be the main thrust of <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Fudge</i>: what it’s like to try to live a meaningful life in a world
driven to senseless, consumerist distraction, often in the face of truly serious
shit that warrants our full, sustained attention (e.g., terrorism, pandemics, being
a compassionate adult). “Events just barely happen… / The insurrectionists took
selfies and left” Weatherhead writes in “Last Poem”. “I hold my small,
beautiful wife / Heavy metals congeal in the aether”. Violence exists alongside
self-centered frivolousness, just as tenderness occurs in the toxic chemical
soup we’ve made of the world. <br /></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12pt;">Some
poems are more arresting than others. “Dead Air (21 Short Poems)” are just too short
for this reader; they skip cleanly off my brain like aphorisms failing to find
emotional purchase or resonance. “Poem While on Hold with NBA League Pass
Customer Support”, on the other hand, is a funny, near-brilliant meditation on growing up, getting
older, and constructing a sense of purpose in your one finite life. “20
Pandemic Haiku” are likewise winning. Here’s one:</span></p>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12pt;"><span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span>“Fuck, I mean, shit,”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12pt;">Our neighbor screams</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="text-align: left; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12pt;">Through the wall</span><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12pt;"> <br /></span></div>
<p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12pt;">The
poem begins rather than ends with its cutting motion, but it’s otherwise an urban description worthy of Basho or Issa. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12pt;">Sit
with <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Fudge</i> a while and observations like
these come to haunt your side like a funny, slightly sad friend; and as the
world continues to be a speedy, confounding place, I’m grateful for its
company.</span></p>

Shipley’s <span style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">latest offering,<i> </i></span><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">So Beautiful and Elastic</i> (Apocalypse Party, 2023), is a challenging
book and not for the faint of heart, but those who commit to it will be pleased to have done so.<br /></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">On the most superficial level the plot concerns
our narrator, Ann, leaving London and returning to the unnamed seaside town
from which she escaped as a teenager, in order to bear witness to the death of
her father. The journey is twofold and fraught. Ann is full of contempt for her
father, her dead mother, her past, life in general, and herself. The reckoning the
reader suspects Ann will have with her father will also necessarily be one she
has with herself and whatever secrets her past contains and that she may or may not
be keeping from herself.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">There’s plenty to chew on there, to be
sure, and the book’s brief chapters skip through time, giving us a kaleidoscopic
view of a turbulent life, though Ann gives equal weight to the life of the mind
by offering ekphrastic disquisitions on the visual arts, those being her chief
obsession in life and the primary way in which she constructs her identity. In
the place of what we might call “normal” human relationships, Ann has her
intellectual relationships to philosophy and art; Magritte, Cioran, Schneider,
Lynch, et al., provide the scaffolding which allows Ann to continue her own insubstantial
existence. <br /></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">For all the disorienting weight of the subject matter, <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">So Beautiful and Elastic</i> reads quickly
and in an engaging manner due to Shipley’s fine prose. Here is Ann, early in
the book, offering comment on one of the ways in which she created herself: “I
suppose I’d made a point of not sounding like my parents. Not that their
bare-bones syntax, stunted diction and coy expungement of expletives was the
worst of it, and not that there weren’t cringier examples – those parents of
friends, for instance, who’d made a point of not sounding like themselves, but
whose impoverished disguises only ever managed to emphasize the lowliness they
were attempting to conceal – but because the sound of them carried with it
everything they were, the tawdriness of their thinking, the repulsive
biological link that in the end no amount of articulacy could undo.” <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">What’s noteworthy here, besides the elegant
sentence construction and rather pointed observation, is the way in which Ann perceives
language as a means to imprison, dissemble, and also construct. The book is obsessed
with this kind of thing, how tenuous and flimsy the self is and how the
essential “lowliness” of the human condition might be mitigated (whether Ann
cops to that desire or not) through engagement with intellectual and creative endeavors. About midway through the book, Ann quotes Magritte
as having said that “what is important is that in a hundred years’ time,
someone finds what I found, but in a different way”, to which she adds, “I too
have found what he found. I found it altered and perverse, lucid in its mystery
from every available angle, and maybe awake to it, refusing to look away or
squint or think it into something else.” </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">So
Beautiful and Elastic</span></i><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;"> does not squint or look away. It
is full bore in its ugliness but never gratuitous, and in doing so it invites
the reader to think about what makes a life, what exactly they love and why.
What’s more rewarding than that?</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;"><b><a href="https://www.apocalypse-party.com/sobeautifulandelastic.html" target="_blank"><i>So Beautiful and Elastic</i> is available from Apocalypse Party. <br /></a></b></span></p>
