fmachinery 104

i received a copy of the latest issue of daniel f bradley's marvelous periodical, fmachinery today . it's up to it's usual high standard, of course. all the poems are by Carlyle baker, a poet whose work i don't see enough of but i certainly think his work is really rather marvelous. he did put a comment on one of my blogs (i forget which one) , asking if i would like to publish his work in wÜrm but as i had no way of contacting him it never went anywhere.

i am allways willing to support and promote the work of others when i can, which is of cource why i set wurm( and k=o=l=l=a=p=s before it) up in the first place, to show case interesting, innovative poetry and i certainly thing there is something very interesting and unique about baker's work.

i definatly recommend you contact Daniel and get him to send you a copy. it's very much worth it.

wow that was a long poem! when it comes to linier poetry, i'll stick to micro poems for a while. going to do an e-book to replace the one spiiral was meant to be.

spiiral (this was going to be a poem in 3 parts in e-book form but it pretty much finished early and i'm all long poem'd out for the moment. )

“all true language is incomprehensible, like the chatter of a beggar's teeth.”
