Wow, this is such a radical example of it's own structure! You used words in a way I have never before seen/read. A message is in there, like all art, but you made the words art in itself by how you arranged them. The form reminds me of an eye test... but it really is a reality check for our brains because us silly humans are always freaking out about every little thing that goes wrong in day to day life. Nice work. Very different!
I dont know what to think of this, an act of deconstruction? Its interesting,, to say the least, it its visually striking, the txt seems to be slipping into madness, but im not sure. Im just not sure.. It reminds one of the visual component of poetry, and the potential of the text as image
i love the abstract merge of the simple and the complex here, it is beautiful more than in words... it is so light...more a thought than a poem, i really like it.
Hey Carol,This is sheer inventiveness...I liked how I was drawn in and caught up in a bipolar echo...you use words like a painter would with canvas...very cool experience...except for finding out I need glasses...Tom
NoThing is (not)(.) a MissTake scramBLING for the O-position for existence.
"man is the Being by whom nothingness comes into the world"
Sartre (he thought is was no mistake though, nothingness has existence; it is the manifold that we are but are at the same time seperate from)
Gertrude Stein with a computer. Very interesting. "Imarginable" as opposed to "imaginable" - this has many twists that jar the expected "Reall" with two ll's? was it a stream of conscious link to "really"? the inside inversion "a mistake is nothing" "nothing is a mistake" is also linguistically clever. If nothing is a mistake, then it doesn't exist and is nothing. IF it is nothing, then why does a word exist for it? Is that an "I" or roman numeral - the pun on "no" negating the negation. I must admit, I have no idea what it all means, but it is unique. Reminds me of the anthology I once had that contained manifestos and poetry of dada, cubism, futurism, isms isms...

And then went down to the ship, Set keel to breakers, forth on the godly sea, and . . . Ezra Pound (TCOEP).
