In the '80s and '90s, many Puerto Rican poets who lived in the contiguous United States wrote within a fixed aya and aca/mainland vs. island story. The island was home. Jane Alberdeston Coralin and other contemporary Puerto Rican poets approach their selves, memories and bodies as home. And: Latin American literature of the 60's was complex and required active readers. By the 70s and 80s, the literature had conformed to the demands of the marketplace: it was localist, exotic and saturated with magical realism. Tomás Regalado-López says that the 1996 Crack Movement transformed the marketplace for Latin American writers. It shifted things from a narrow stereotype to a land of endless possibilities. Plus: In the 1950s, a Californian poet named Jack Spicer did something wonky. He wrote the introduction to his book in the voice of long deceased poet Federico Garcia Lorca. And he took liberty to translate Lorca's work as he wished. Scott Challener says that this inspired a generation of poets to approach translation as correspondence.

“There is a charming quality, is there not,” he said to me, “in this silence; for hearts that are wounded, as mine is , a novelist whom you will read in time to come, claims that there is no remedy but silence and shadow.  And see you this, my boy, there comes in all lives a time, towards which you still have far to go, when the weary eyes can endure but one kind of light; the light which a fine evening like this prepares for us in the stillroom of darkness, when the ears can listen to no music save what the moonlight breathes through the flute of silence.” - Marcel Proust, Swann's Way."A solitary, unused to speaking of what he sees and feels, has mental experiences which are at once more intense and less articulate than those of a gregarious man. They are sluggish yet more wayward, and never without a melancholy tinge. Sights and impressions which others brush aside with a glance, a light comment, a smile, occupy him more than their due; they sink silently in, they take on meaning, they become experience, emotion, adventure. Solitude gives birth to the original in us, to beauty unfamiliar and perilous - to poetry." - Thomas Mann, Death in Venice "Good feeling, won't you stay with me just a little longer?" - Violent Femmes "I'll be so alone without you. Maybe you'll be lonesome too." - Price, King & Stewart, You Belong to MeLINKS:Buy Frank Spicer's "My Vocabulary Did This to Me: The Collected Poetry of Jack Spicer".Send your questions/comments/concerns to: info@robynoneil.comMy website: www.robynoneil.com"We shall find peace.

The queens are joined by Empress Maureen Seaton to discuss pushing the envelope....Buy Maureen's books from Loyalty Bookstore, a DC-area Black-owned indie bookstore.Maureen Seaton earned an MFA from Vermont College in 1996. She is the author of the more than 25 poetry collections, some of them authored in collaboration with writers like Samuel Ace, Denise Duhamel, and Neil de la Flor. Seaton, Duhamel, and David Trinidad edited an anthology titled Saints of Hysteria: A Half-Century of Collaborative American Poetry (2007). Seaton is author of the Lambda Literary Award–winning memoir Sex Talks to Girls (2008), in which she addresses motherhood, sobriety, and sexuality. Her most recent books are Undersea and Genetics, which she published in 2021. Elizabeth Gilbert's TED Talk called “Your Elusive Creative Genius" confirms the story about Ruth Stone visualizing a poem as a sort of weather system. You can hear the whole talk here. Read a poem by Maureen's teacher Mark Cox here.  A triolet is an eight-line poem, French in origin, with only two rhymes used throughout. A rondelet's basic structure is:Line 1: A—four syllablesLine 2: b—eight syllablesLine 3: A—repeat of line oneLine 4: a—eight syllablesLine 5: b—eight syllablesLine 6: b—eight syllablesLine 7: A—repeat of line oneThe refrained lines should contain the same words, however substitution or different use of punctuation on the lines has been common.In 1965, Jack Spicer gave a talk on poetry as "dictation." The poet Michael Peterson, whose online post I'm linking to below, writes: "By Spicer's theorem, the poet was not a kind of inspired genius, but rather a "medium" for a psychic, spiritual, poetic message. The poem, in turn, was like a radio which picked up the transmission. This lecture became the stuff of poetry legend, the recording passed from person to person until it was finally made available online almost fifty years later. This is an early recording which I have edited down from almost three hours to just under thirty minutes."You can watch Levine read Lorca's poem "New York (Office and Denunciation)" at the New York Public Library here (~5 min).Marilyn Hacker read and discussed her career at the National Book Festival in 2016, and you can watch it here (~40 min).

Este mar, humillante en sus disfraces y más duro que nada. Nadie escucha a la poesía. El mar no pide que lo escuchen. Una gota o un estruendo de agua. No significa nada. Es pan con manteca sal y pimienta. La muerte que los jóvenes quisieran. Golpea las orillas al azar. Señales blancas al azar. Nadie escucha a la poesía.

In this second QUARANTINE session we range over where we are and where we’re not, looking back to glimpse the way ahead and what the unknown feels like, through ruminations on THE CAVE IN THE SNOW, the memoir of a 12-year spiritual retreat by Tenzin Palmo (English born Diane Perry), Dag Hammarskjold’s MARKINGS, the web and the Zoom, hand wringing over hand washing, Sparrow’s dictum that “staying home is the new activism, and Jack Spicer’s poem “It is Forbidden to Look”—-where our discussion in and on the Great Pause took a pause. Following the form of the Spicer poem, which in part occurs within the myth of Orpheus and his descent to the underworld—-in Spicer case, following the screenplay of Cocteau’s “Orfe,” via a wall mirror-—to Eurydice back to life, after a few days we reflect on what we had said as well as keep going, touching on Ginsberg’s first reading of HOWL in 1955 and its 1980, 25th-anniversary performance, Greg Masters’ collaborative poem with Steve Levine “Well Hello” (for Arthur Rimbaud), the play “He Who Gets Slapped” by Leonid Nikolayevich Andreyev, the nature of masks and marks, and a homage to women, who it turns out outstrip men as our current essential workforce.

Joanne Kyger On Time: Poems 2005-2014 ~Co-presented with Point Reyes Books~ There is no poet with more whimsically tough a mind… She’s the best of the west. —Robert Creely No other poet of my gen­eration has been able to make the pleasures and particu­lars of the ‘everyday’ as luminous and essential and cen­tral. —David Meltzer A longtime Bolinas resident, Kyger will read from her work and be in discussion with her longtime friend and admirer, Steve Heilig of The New School.
