“Come” in the time of Secular Poetic Witness

Reading an intro to Dharma Bums
thinking of children
the brain
is in the cranium
observing the’sigh of brain
and they should dance the brain
Reading-writing to begin to then write
Let’s try this. What if: reading-writing is a verb. I have to be in conversation with the Teddy Eagleton concept—and as I read, I’m responding to what I’m reading, and often juggling writing-to-be-written response ideas, phrases, and sentences as I go along. I do this in very small increments: if there’s a manuscript that I’m really having a philosophically creative response to, I the writing-to-be-written as it occurs should come to fruition. And I am beginning to then write.
Reading Dario Fo’s THE TRICKS OF THE TRADE
Considering World Theater History ever since undergrad, and recently reading Dario Fo’s THE TRICKS OF THE TRADE in conjunction with considering what I’ve been practicing for the past 16 years or so—melding & intersecting Self-Portrait Photography Character Artistry with my theater background and world internet intersections. Looking forward to writing about my practice. What a book to look at as a precedent!
