MY BROTHER ROY


I've rarely written about my dead brother Roy. Through Art, through one of his artworks, I was able to write something this morning ... partly to give him life in the internet for my family, especially the young ones who never met him.
"Art. It’s not just about the specificity of the object—it’s about how the object can become a threshold into a new experience. Given my brother’s death at a young age, I don’t have and will never have a huge amount of memories with him—whatever I have will never suffice. But, Art—it gives me a new way to interact with him."

PETER WATERHOUSE'S CAESURA


I enjoyed Peter Waterhouse's LANGUAGE DEATH NIGHT OUTSIDE, a book recommended to me by Gabriel Gudding. I also had an unexpected visceral reaction to the white space inserted within paragraphs. Not sure why, but i suspect it may surface in my own future work. There's something about that particular caesura within a paragraph, i.e. amidst dense text (versus, say, the looser lines in a poem), that moves me...

A HAY(NA)KU SPRING!

... and it was also the Hay(na)ku Spring!  That is, poet-"peminist"-scholar-mezzo soprano-etc Melinda Luisa de Jesus -- in apparently the hardest gig she's ever done -- was a "Visiting Poet" who did a kiddo workshop on the hay(na)ku at Walden Center and School in Berkeley. Second and third graders, in Beth Baugh's class, were a tough crowd! Here are some lovely shots from the May 1 workshop:

NORTH FORK SHOWCASE OF FILIPINO-PILIPINZ ART

If I ever won Lotto, I'd never buy a Picasso, Van Gogh or Amorsolo. I believe in supporting the art(ists) of one's time. While I've tried to do that, a subset of those activities has been bringing to my home art by Filipino-Pilipinx artists. The best part of unpacking from years of storage has been the ability to re-feature the works at home in a more organized way. So I decided to do a Filipino-Pilipinx gallery. It's not open to the public, but I plan for it to have a meaningful online presence based on engagements/discourse with the art.
What I've learned over the years is the relative paucity of engagements over artworks--both visual and poetry (with the latter, I attempted to redress it through Galatea Resurrects)--by those at the forefront of the arts practice. And now, I'm pleased to release
NORTH FORK ARTS PROJECTS
Showcasing Filipino-Pilipinz Artists
I inaugurate the online presence with engagements of art by Marissa Sean Cruz, Patrick Rosal, John Patrick McKenzie, Emmy Catedral, Eliza Barrios, V.C. Igarta, and Melissa Nolledo. In some cases, I update already written material; others are new for this site. I hope you check it out (more material to be added over time) ... and may this cause you to further support Filipino-Pilipinx artists -- they are doing wonderful and meaningful work.

"CLOUDYGENOUS"

I'm really in the space of an installation project named "Cloudygenous", which also is a word I'd invented for Counter-Desecration: A Glossary for Writing Within the Anthropocene. You invent a word, and then you create physical embodiments -- that, too, is poetry. Here are some excerpt-images. The last image presents part of the installation when it happened to hang in front of Jenifer Wofford's "FALLING NURSE"--it's a nifty happenstance juxtaposition when interrogating "cloud" as defined historically and now its relationship to virtual reality. Yes, as ever, I'm also interrogating English.

REVIEW OF EVIDENCE OF FETUS DIVERSITY


I'm grateful to Neil Leadbeater for reviewing my first edited anthology in 2018, EVIDENCE OF FETUS DIVERSITY. You can see the review HERE at Galatea Resurrects, but here's an excerpt:
"What is so immediately striking about it is the freshness of the writing – you can sense the anger before the ink has dried on the page – and the variety of styles in which the contributors put across their views. There are long and short poems, the short ones being made up almost exclusively of the “banned” words. Each in their own way offer up a tightly-constructed argument."

THE FUTURE FOR GALATEA RESURRECTS

Heads up! GALATEA RESURRECTS will take a break at the end of this year and hopefully return in Fall 2019. As there's just 4-5 months left in the year, you may want to write and send your review in the next few months as GR may not open up again until Sept or October 2019. Thanks as ever for your interest and support.


Any reviews sent before the 20th of this month can appear in the (next or) August edition.

BECAUSE POETRY'S NOT ALIEN TO ME...


'Twas a busy recent period for writing blurbs. Here's 3 of the 4 I wrote in past month or so:

ROSWELL by Judith Roitman

Judith Roitman’s Roswell makes me wonder whether it’s possible for humans to engage aliens without the former humanizing the latter. The poems, after all, claim “surviving alien remembers its descendants,” ”surviving alien remembers nourishment,” and so on as if the human Roitman can inhabit non-earthling point of views. Such may be considered empathy. But for these poems relating to 1947 events to come out in 2018 is also to emphasize how little empathy is displayed today by the U.S. administration for "aliens" of a different sort but within the same species. How far humanity has fallen. These poems accomplish what good poems do: go beyond themselves into other matters as they make the reader think.

 

 
Y'OL by Birhan Keskin, Translated by Murat Nemet-Nejat
"the other calls the one who isn’t there / that’s how magic becomes magic" — there’s no getting around it. To live is to desire, thus, ultimately to anguish. In Y’ol, the world is unstable, even untrustworthy. But this only makes love more important: “the sky i return, return return / return to is you”. Love—defined in these poems through an endless yearning—could have been denied but instead is upheld, even as these poems of fortitude must scorch their pages. The title “Y’ol” means “the road of/towards becoming.” This Y’ol presents the jagged music of metamorphosis and to read these poems is to discern songs made possible only with silence set on fire. 
RIVERRUN by Alan Baker
"on the surface a uniform grey / but in the depths an inner life”—such scaffolds how Alan Baker’s poems run deep, spill wide, and linger to become everlasting song. Here, the river is history and (despite history) hope so that the poems, too, bespeak desire. How can we not be moved, even if the poet cautions about the river: “it isn’t human, it doesn’t care about us”?

Speaking of publications, here's my latest Relished W(h)ines update of recently imbibed books and wines.  As ever, please note that in the Publications section, if you see an asterisk before the title, that means a review copy is available for Galatea Resurrects!  More info on that HERE
