Hey,
Feb. 19th, 2007 01:09 amA literary day
Feb. 19th, 2007 01:39 amIt's been a literary day. Got a fair bit of reading and writing done; began arranging a little literary venture with a friend; got the ball rolling on some small-press ideas someotherguy and I have been working on; submitted a bunch of poems; re-wrote a poem; played pokemon for an hour. Well, that last part wasn't literary.
Tomorrow or the next day, a post on the first piece of the small-press puzzle.

Feb. 19th, 2007 10:04 pmSomeone I love is newly in love with someone I like a whole lot. Other people I love and/or like are *poing*ing all over the place, too.
I have a benign kind of envy -- one that has no element of wishing they didn't have the yummy NRE to savor, but kind of wishing I had some, too.
Then again, I am four years into the most satisfying relationships of my entire life, so really, if anything I'm saying sounds like a complaint to you, think again.

Feb. 19th, 2007 11:58 pmI love deep, quality poetry that astounds with its beauty.
But I also like poetry as a cooperative, political act. Poetry as performative core-dump. Poetry as a shout-down to The Man. Poetry as a way to bind people who have little else in common. Words as confessional and comedy, play and pretext.
Please join me in creatingkolkhozpoetry -- The Kolkhoz Poetry Collective. This is about poetry as a means of giving voice. There will be a blog; there will be monthly DIY chapbook-creation gatherings. But mostly there will be gathering together -- online and in person -- to find ways to use poetry as a voice, a way to shout to the world until it listens.
Don't worry if you're "not a poet". This is about finding your voice, whatever that means to you. C'mon.
(Oakland meetings will be the last Sunday of every month, beginning 3/25/07 -- you should feel free to start some up in your town, too.)
(What does Kolkhoz mean?)
