    A spun radio dial passing clean through poetry. A stuttering loop of Endgame recorded by Stockhausen, remixed by Kraftwerk. The chatter of minotaurs and metadata. Transmissions from far-off futures or new pasts, recordings from a recoded present topped off with a cherry. Evel Knievel, above it all, mysterious, forever taciturn. Mission Creep comes on with the inferno of apocalyptic prophecy and melts on your tongue like the last snowflake of a nuclear winter.
     
    Praise for Joshua Trotter:
     
    'Joshua Trotter’s long-awaited debut is here, and it’s every bit as good as we’d hoped. His poems have the one maker’s mark of authenticity that absolutely cannot be faked: a fresh style that holds novelty and tradition in creative tension. ... By turns funny and terrifying, airy and claustrophobic, non-representational and razor-sharp, Trotter is stock to buy early and hold.' – National Post (on All This Could Be Yours)

    “The poems are so deliciously bad that they’re fun . . . it might just be that there’s a little bit of serious poetry play giggling behind the scenes.” —Los Angeles Times 
     
    Forget Shakespeare. Don’t count on Donne. Shelley and Keats: banished! And there’s absolutely no poet laureate from the golden or any other age. So fawning PhDs in love with little-understood verses by long-dead writers should go elsewhere. This is poetry for the rest of us—bad poetry!  
     
    Pamela Russell’s unexalted (but thoroughly hysterical) poems mock, chide, accuse, tease, joke, undermine, point, and laugh at the world around us—and at anything that takes itself too seriously. Her non-canonical oeuvre includes: Tea for Two (A Tragedy); Nietzsche and the Ice-Cream Truck; Capitalism Can Fall Not Like I Fell for You; Inappropriately Touched by an Angel; Love Is Like a Toilet Bowl; and many more.

    In the early 1900s a new movement in poetry began.  With the new century came new thinking, a reaction to both romanticism and the more formal, structured poetry of the Victorian era.  Here was poetry designed to be simple, clear and precise, rather than be adorned and encrusted with more from the lexicon than what was actually needed. 
     
    The original ideas sprang from T. E Hulme and from these Ezra Pound created the structure for its development.  Akin to the Ancient Greek lyricists and the Japanese Haiku poets who went from fixed meters to free verse. 
     
    I. Direct treatment of the “thing," whether subjective or objective.  II. To use absolutely no word that does not contribute to the presentation.  III. As regarding rhythm: to compose in sequence of the musical phrase, not in sequence of the metronome. 
     
    Hilda Doolittle (H.D.) William Carlos Williams, Richard Aldington and James Joyce added their talents to an anthology edited by Pound, swiftly followed by Amy Lowell assuming leadership and adding both monies and 3 further anthology volumes.   By the end of the Great War in 1918 the movement was being absorbed into the broader modernist movement.  Its time may have passed but its indelible mark was made.

    We are living in difficult times, and for many of us, it has become harder than difficult. Many of us go to bed at night wondering how we made it through the day and if tomorrow will be our last. The political climate is divisive and hateful, while the entertainment of our lives is marred with sexual harassment and fights for social justice. Still, God walks with us. Families have been serving God for generations, and like many, they, too, are marred with hate and vindictive fabricators. It is easy to believe in God when your friends are your family and your neighbors stand with you for peace. See, God does walk with those that try to be good.
