Daily Glance

Jim Leftwich and Jukka-Pekka Kervinen's [mnl is f930:]is quite fun to go through, and that is not just because the poets are two of my favorite innovative poets.  The book compels you to ask questions about interpretation.

Well, how do we read this type of poem?  Should we take it as a poem?  Is it a visual poem (and I did not manage to recreate their font)?  Is it a complicated cipher?  Is it supposed to mean something?  Or should we rather just experience it?  Is it automated writing?  (I would like to know the process of composition.)

Still, without really being able to answer some of these questions, I find it interesting to sort through the book, not in any specific order, to find sections that push and pull at my thoughts,
