What kind of work is the work of poetry, and how does it compare with other kinds of labor? We have the perfect pairing of poem and critic to think through that question on this episode: Kristin Grogan joins the podcast to talk about Lorine Niedecker's "Poet's Work."Kristin is assistant professor of English at Rutgers University, where she works on poetry, poetics, modernism, American literature, modernism, gender, and sexuality. She is nearing completion of her first book, Stitch, Unstitch: Poetry, Modernism, and the World of Work.

With David B. Hobbs, Kristin edited a Post45 cluster on the poet Bernadette Mayer. You can find her contribution to that cluster, on Mayer and keeping a garden, here.Please follow, rate, and review the podcast if you like what you hear.

History of National Poetry Writing Month National Poetry Writing Month (also known as NaPoWriMo) is a creative writing project held annually in April in which participants attempt to write a poem each day for one month. NaPoWriMo coincides with National Poetry Month in the United States of America and Canada. This website is owned and operated by Maureen Thorson, a poet living in Washington, DC. Inspired by NaNoWriMo, National Novel Writing Month), she started writing a poem a day for the month of April back in 2003, posting the poems on her blog. When other people started writing poems for April and posting them on their own blogs, Maureen linked to them. After a few years, so many people were doing NaPoWriMo that Maureen decided to launch an independent website for the project. My History with National Poetry Writing Month I started writing poetry in 1988 after I had been exposed to T.S. Elliot in my honors English class in high school. In 1992 I started reading my poetry publicly at Espresso Europia Coffee Shop in Abilene Tx while I was in the United States Air Force. While living in Rockford Illinois I published my first book of poetry Throwing Yourself at the Ground and Missing in 2007 followed by Postcards From Someone You Don't Know in 2008 Wisdom From the Sack in 2010 and Shaving Crop Circles In My Chest Hair in 2017. You can get copies of all of these books in my merch section. In 2020 I started publishing my podcast version of the challenge and those can be viewed here for 2020 and here for 2021. What I am doing differently for Poetry Month For 2023 I am not going to be just writing poems in April, I will be writing poems all year round. Also, since I will be writing all year round, I am using a different source for my prompts. There is a blog called Think Written and you can find it here. I will also be performing these works at Katora Coffee House here in Fredericksburg Virginia on their Friday Night Snaps Open Mic Poetry reading. Some of the podcast episodes you will hear will be a live recording of me reading the poem to a live audience, other times I will be reading it in the comfort of my home studio. I do plan on posting my work to the NaPoWriMo site and interacting with the poets there and see if they want to read their work on this podcast. Todays Poetry Prompt Today, begin by reading Bernadette Mayer's poem “The Lobelias of Fear.” Now write your own poem titled “The ________ of ________,” where the first blank is a very particular kind of plant or animal, and the second blank is an abstract noun. The poem should contain at least one simile that plays on double meanings or otherwise doesn't quite make “sense,” and describe things or beings from very different times or places as co-existing in the same space.   The Vulture of Tolerance  27 April 2023  It doesn't matter who we are  Or where we came from  Or what religion we subscribe to  How much money we made  How many people's lives we have positively impacted  There is no difference in party allegiance  Or Nationality  Gender or sexual orientation  If your socks match  If you are wearing underwear or prefer to go commando  If there is dirt under your fingernails  Or callouses on your palms  Or glitter nail polish that you let your children apply  If you are obese  Or suffer from a chronic disorder  Or suffer from too much of the chronic  Once your body is laid out in a field  You all taste the same to them  And no, you don't taste like chicken  You are their food  And all that makes you, matters little to them  Your dreams and aspirations are just seasoning  They don't care at all about anything you have done  You are what's for dinner   Dark meat, light meat   Meat is meat  And when you are as ugly as they are  An easy meal is like going to the drive thru for them  So, cheer up  Be their happy meal  And make sure not to carry plastic toys in your pockets  Choking hazard ya know  Wouldn't want to be the next meal  Sign Up for the Create Art Podcast Newsletter Or Subscribe Here Reaching Out To The Podcast To reach out to me, email timothy@createartpodcast.com I would love to hear about your journey and what you are working on.

Bernadette Mayer's book-length poem Midwinter Day.

I know the rest of the night will be as devoted to work as love as I'm now resting in this expensive sentence and in the end I'll spend it fast writing to you anyway, addressing you and a solution or night beginning like a letter, just a few words more freely seeing everything more clearly than the rest of life and love tends to be like windows facing mostly south but surrounding us, I'm thinking of you.Bernadette Mayer's Midwinter Day is a book-length poem entirely written on December 22, 1978. It documents her day—early morning dreams, midday chores with her toddlers, late night all-night writing sessions with her partner—in a panoply of poetic modes.

Happy New Year - A new year brings new opportunities.  A resolution I have made is that each day I will write at least one poem and take and select at least one new photograph.  I am also going to experiment with different poetic forms, such as GROOKS, invented by the Danish Scientist Piet Hein, and Haiku and Lunes!     And I will get inspired by other poets, like Bernadette Mayer - an innovative poet from Brooklyn - who always surprises.My poems in this episode are about:  New Year's Day;  Simplicity:  Everlasting Razor Blades:  Books:  Opportunities: and Going to Bed!Support the show

In episode 57 of the Podcast for Social Research, Ajay Singh Chaudhary, Rebecca Ariel Porte, Danielle Drori, Mark DeLucas, Lauren K. Wolfe, and Michael Stevenson look back at their 2022 in cultural experiences, from high-brow to middle- to low-: visiting NYC landmarks (for the first time), the New York Philharmonic (and David Geffen Hall's questionable acoustics), the Upanishads, diary-keeping (and destroying), Sybille Bedford (vs. Henry James), Lucy Ives's Life is Everywhere, the Xenoblade Chronicles (an allegory for communism?), Pink Floyd, "low-powered" cultural objects, Station 11, Bernadette Mayer, Stockholm's Vasa Museum (a museum dedicated to failure), Chester the dog,  Annie Ernaux, and autofiction—again, and again, and again. 

Remembering Richard Howard as a poet, mentor, and friend, plus a few words on money by Bernadette Mayer.

Hopefully sooner! But in this final April 2022 episode, we talk MFA programs. Are they a necessity when trying to build an artistic community?

Frequent listeners will note that I often refer to dream expert Jeremy Taylor's quote, “All dreams reflect our inborn creativity.” While the concept is that we are all creators, it's also been demonstrated that artists of all types have used their dreams as inspiration for their work. I thought it would be worthwhile to take a look at how one such creative works with his dreams. Michael Ruby is a poet who has used his nighttime images to craft word pictures in several of his books of poetry. In this insightful interview, Michael tells us:•how his dreams translate into poetry•his understanding of where creativity comes from•why he believes we're all fiction writers•his technique for remembering his dreams•how other artists record their dreams•how is work in journalism affects his poetry If you're curious about the creative process and the nature of the poetic world, don't miss this expressive episode of Dream Power Radio. Michael Ruby is a poet and journalist who is the author of a published dream book, Dreams of the 1990s, as well as the closely related Inner Voices Heard Before Sleep, both of which appear in his trilogy in prose and poetry, Memories, Dreams and Inner Voices (Station Hill, 2012). In a subsequent ebook of prose poetry, Close Your Eyes, Ruby describes what he sees with his eyes closed. He is also the author of seven poetry books, most recently Compulsive Words (BlazeVOX, 2010), American Songbook (Ugly Duckling, 2013), The Mouth of the Bay (BlazeVOX, 2019) and The Star-Spangled Banner (Station Hill, 2020), and many poetry chapbooks and ebooks, including Fleeting Memories and Titles & First Lines. He co-edited Bernadette Mayer's early books, Eating the Colors of a Lineup of Words (Station Hill, 2015), and Mayer's and Lewis Warsh's collaboration Piece of Cake (Station Hill, 2020), and he is co-curator of the Station Hill Intermedia Lab in Barrytown, N.Y. He lives in Brooklyn and the Hudson Valley and works as an editor of U.S. news and political articles at The Wall Street Journal. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Handler_Ruby Want to know why dreams are the fastest and clearest way to understand yourself?

How can something published in 1968 be so 2021? It can because it's a lyric poem by Bernadette Mayer, a poet whose work may well define what I think is great about lyric poetry. Join me, Mark Scarbrough, as I take a look at this fabulous and very adult sonnet by one of the best American poets working still today. Rage? You bet! But in sonnet form.

Here we steer into Bernadette Mayer's "Eve of Easter," leaving what wakes - the "shocking resurrection idea" included and all that that might freight. The poem was first published in Mayer's GOLDEN BOOK OF WORDS (Angel Hair, 1978) and republished in EATING THE COLORS OF A LINEUP OF WORDS: THE EARLY BOOKS OF BERNADETTE MAYER (Station Hill Press, 2015). This podcast also includes a Public Access Poetry recording of Mayer reading the poem on April 26, 1978. (There's a lot of ambient sound in that recording, sorry). One program note: We fail to mention that the poet John Milton's first wife was named Mary (Powell), as was one of their daughters (born October 25, 1648).

Four weeks into our collective Great Pause, the Bafflers examine “Red Shift,” Ted Berrigan’s iconic New York School poem. This close reading – distinguished in part by our own Sparrow having been Berrigan’s student - proceeds from the astrophysical definition of “redshift” to speculations into what attributive meanings to which Berrigan might allude. This includes a broad look into the nature of time as surfaced in the poem and in part depth charged in Berrigan situating the poem “at 8:08 p.m.” (the Eight-Fold Path, I-Ching and Hubble’s insights into an exploding universe). We touch on his forebearers – Allen Ginsberg, Frank O’Hara and John Ashbery - as well as Berrigan’s friends and allies, including Joe Brainard, Dick Gallup and Ron Padgett (including a nod to the latter’s memoir TED). We look to his nineteenth-century antecedents in the Transcendentalists and Whitman as well as how Berrigan self-identified as a late Beatnik. We touch on the role the song “California Dreaming” plays in the work and Berrigan’s working-class poetics, among other ruminative forays, including the Esopus River, the poets Jorie Graham, Bernadette Mayer, Lewis Warsh and Robinson Jeffers, as well as what existential insight might be disguised in a Harris Tweed jacket. SPECIAL FEATURE: We embed a recording of Berrigan reading the work at Naropa University, 1982, from EXACT CHANGE Yearbook 1995 no. 1 (Ed. Peter Gizzi). ADDENDUM: 1. The chronological early publishing history of THE SONNETS is correctly listed below: C Press — c1963. Mimeograph edition Grove Press — c1967 United Artists — 1982 (With seven additional sonnets not in original) 2. This podcast includes speculation around Berrigan's financial straits and schemes as well as the circumstances around his death. We regret and ask forgiveness for any inaccuracies, and please listen with an open heart.

Well, *sigh*, things sure have changed since we last caught up with Anne, Caroline, Gale and Producer Lisann. Since O,Miami's annual April festival went O,nline, we gathered via Zoom at 3:05 PM on April 11th, 2020 for our first "live" episode of Now That We're Friends. We went through a few listener questions about life in quarantine. We read our favorite isolation poems and played our go-to lonely jams. We speculated on how we'll react to each another once we're all out in the open again. And we talked about how we're essentially in a time portal right now. So hop into the time portal that is this episode, where your new friends will great you on the other side with the best recs!

If poetry makes nothing happen, it also makes very little in the way of income. Take the acclaimed poet Bernadette Mayer. Often aligned with the Language Poets, Mayer overcame entrenched sexism to establish herself as one of the most influential poets of her generation. At 73, she's still producing work. And yet she only made about $17,000 last year. That's hardly enough to live on, even after Mayer and her partner moved out of New York City. Tech moguls like Mark Zuckerberg and Elon Musk talk about Universal Basic Income as a fix for increasing automation. But could poetry — culturally necessary but essentially unmarketable — provide an even more compelling argument for UBI? Some minimal allowance might deliver poets like Mayer from financial ruin. What do the rest of us lose when poets can no longer afford to pursue their life's work?

This episode came out of a conversation inspired by our study on the financial state of artists today, and was produced by Rachel James and The Organist (a podcast created by McSweeney’s and KCRW) in collaboration with TCI. You can also find it on The Organist’s website.

Episode 1 of Commonplace’s special series on translation.Rosa Alcalá is the author of three full-length collections of poetry, most recently, MyOTHER TONGUE (Futurepoem), and translator of several full-length translations including the recently released New and Selected Poems of Cecilia Vicuña (Kelsey Street Press) for which Alcalá received a translation fellowship from the National Endowment of the Arts in 2015.Alcalá talks to Commonplace host Rachel Zucker about the experience of translating and transcribing the poetry and performances of Chilean-born artist Cecilia Vicuña. Alcalá speaks about growing up in Paterson, N.J., having been a child interpreter and mediator for her Spanish-speaking parents, language shame, studying at Brown and meeting Vicuña for the first time, studying transcription and ethnopoetics with Dennis Tedlock at SUNY Buffalo, grappling with how to record ephemerality, inaudibility, temporality, volume, tone and the feeling of listening (and mishearing) when translating, transcribing, and editing Vicuña’s multi-lingual performances for the book Spit Temple. Alcalá describes her long friendship with Vicuña, accepting the invitation to edit and translate Vicuña’s New and Selected, retranslating earlier translations, how the work of translating others affects her own writing, poetry as a space to say what is impossible to say in any language, literary and linguistic heritage, her interest in the NY School poets (especially Frank O’Hara and Bernadette Mayer), raising a bilingual child, and her poem “Heritage Speaker” from MyOTHER TONGUE.LINER NOTES:05 – Rosa Alcalá reads “The Brilliance of Orifices” from New and Selected Poems of Cecilia Vicuña (Kelsey Street Press, 2018).8:49 – Alcalá reads “Mondo (Fragmentos del Diario Estúpido)” from New and Selected Poems of Cecilia Vicuña.19:11 – Cecilia Vicuña singing and reading [McNally].22:20 – Vicuña introduces and begins reading her poem, “Quen- to Shipibo” [McNally].28:30 – “The translation is definitely associated to time...” Vicuña speaking about working with her translators [McNally].36:20 – Alcalá reads “Art in General, New York City, May 19, 1999” from Spit Temple (Ugly Duckling Presse, 2012).40:14 – Alcalá reads “Cecilia Vicuña: The Poetry Project at St. Marks Church, 2002 [a letter]” from Spit Temple.58:24 – Alcalá reads “Heritage Speaker” from MyOTHER TONGUE (Futurepoem, 2017).

Anaphora for days! Poet Raina Zelinski joins me this week to talk about list poems. How can a poem create repetition? Is there a difference, between litany, catalogues, and list poems? We look at list poems by John Ashbery, Bernadette Mayer, Walt Whitman, Allen Ginsberg, Ted Berrigan, and Lawrence Ferlinghetti.  

This week is all about sonnets, both traditional and modern. We read and talk about sonnets by John Keats, Gerard Manley Hopkins, William Butler Yeats, John Berryman, e.e. cummings, Ted Berrigan, Bernadette Mayer, Ron Padgett, and Terrance Hayes.

At New Orleans Poetry Fest this year we sat down with Chicago poet Jennifer Karmin to talk about poets collaborating with each other and other types of artists, performance poetry, and she shares some of the poetry from Sexual Organs of the IRS which she wrote with Bernadette Mayer.

A miscellany of topics this week. Joseph Makkos tells us about a pretty terrible article from the Daily Mail about what makes poetry successful which we discuss. We talk about modern sonnets and read a few by Bernadette Mayer and Ted Berrigan, and we talk about writing poetry at parties and have a laugh about some poetry written at past parties.

Since the early 2000s, Joshua Beckman has experimented with nature of performing poetry. He has traveled with gangs of poets around the country in a bus, reading in far-flung and unusual venues. He has written live improvisational collaborative poems and recently has given many one-on-one poetry readings. In this episode of The Organist, Ross Simonini speaks to Beckman about the way he reads and writes his poetry aloud, his favorite poetry recordings, and the many poets—Lew Welch, Frank O'Hara, Robert Creeley—whose verbal and performative antics have inspired him. Joshua Beckman's Poetry Mixtape For The Organist, Joshua Beckman selected eight of his favorite audio recordings of poets performing their work aloud. John Cage - Mushroom Haiku John Wieners - from Memories in a Small Apartment Lorenzo Thomas - Anuresis Eileen Myles - April 5th Bernadette Mayer - 1979 Kenneth Koch and Allen Ginsberg - Improvisation Helen Adam - Cheerless Junkie's Song Yoko Ono - Let's Go Flying Banner image of Lew Welch appears via the Poetry Foundation.

Bernadette Mayer, Julia Bloch, and Erica Kaufman join Al Filreis to discuss James Schuyler's "February."

Dorothea Lasky is the guest. Her latest poetry collection, Rome, is available now from Liveright.  Maggie Nelson says “Dorothea Lasky is one of the very best poets we've got. Her poems radiate weirdness and raw power; you can feel your mind grow new folds as you read them. They lay waste to milquetoast notions of poetic longing or melancholy, and instead go in for the vibrating, bloody facts of sadness, anger, desire, bare life, all returned to us more intensely, strangely, and sometimes comedically, by her words. The line is Lasky's measure, and she wields it like an axe she's been carrying through several lifetimes, that kind of wisdom. Her Rome is huge and intrepid and perfect, a total gift.” And Fanny Howe says “Rome is a trip with the wheels engaged to land at every line ending, then flipped up again. A wholly open-hearted book bringing me back to Bernadette Mayer, Maureen Owen and the suffragettes. True life.” Monologue topics:  holiday gift ideas, support the show, Dorothea reads a poem.

Hello again! At the outset of putting together the 18th episode, I knew I couldn’t reasonably expect listeners to sit through almost three hours of this business, but there was too much good stuff left on the cutting room floor, so I knew fairly early on that there would be a “bonus EP” of sorts. In the spirit of the other Haines-inspired title, I’m calling this one: What This Was Going to Supposed to Mean Here’s the tracklist, following the format of Episode 18, it’s just bare bones, with credits and other info directly following it. Please take a look at the previous blog post for more info on all the albums from which these tracks are culled. I won’t rehash info at the album level, only what’s unique and pertinent at the level of each individual track. Episode 18.1 Playlist (00:00) “Testing Testing” (03:00) “In a Landscape X” (06:16) “Art in Heaven” (08:50) “What Is Free to a Good Home (For Robert Wyatt)” (13:55) “Live on the Internet: A Diary (April 7)” (17:51) “Cellular Phone” (21:04) “In a Landscape XL” (23:47) “Third World Two Medley: She Was Showing Me / Boint Liver” (26:15) “Vocalise (For Jeanne Lee)” (45:23) “Paint Me!” (50:48) “Toy Epigrams” (53:42) “Today” (57:05) “In a Landscape XXXVI” (59:17) “What this Was Going to Supposed to Mean” (1:01:27) “This Dedication” Tracks 1, 3, 8, 14 and 15 are from the Darn It! album.

Track 6 was from Karen Alkalay-Gut’s album Thin Lips. Track 9 was from the Joelle Leandre / Steve Dalachinsky album The Bill Has Been Paid. Track 11 was from the Bernadette Mayer reading captured on the Rattle up a Deer CD. All information given in the previous blog post applies here as well except for the following: Track 1 features the voices of Paul Haines’s sons, and the latter part of the track features guitar and bass from ex-”No Wave” pioneer and DNA member Tim Wright. Track 3 finds Derek Bailey playing guitar and reciting Haines’s poem. Track 8 features vocals by Mary Margaret O’Hara, Fernando Saunders on bass, and Gary Lucas on guitar. Gary also wrote the music. On track 14 you’ll hear saxophone from Evan Parker and vocals by Carmen Lundy. Finally, track 15 was written by, and features tenor sax from, John Tchicai, bass by Andy Gonzalez, and drums by Marvin Smith. Enjoy, and let Papers for the Border know what you think!

Sorry, Tree (Wave Books) and Something Bright, Then Holes (Soft Skull Press) and Women, The New York School, and Other True Abstractions (University of Iowa Press) Critic David Lehman has called the New York School of Poetry "the Last Avant Garde." Poet and critic Maggie Nelson suggests it might better be considered "one of the first gay avant gardes," since its original members included Frank O'Hara, John Ashbery and James Schuyler. We examine the role of women in the New York School: Barbara Guest, Alice Notley, Bernadette Mayer and Eileen Myles. How did these women pave the way for today's women poets, who, like Maggie Nelson, are conscious of gender and its effects on poetry?
