Description
xPraise for Marjorie Welish:
"[Welish] challenges 'prettiness' at an almost feverish pitch, working against a poem's anticipated flow even as she moves it along with jazzy verve." --Bookforum
Welish uses the page--not as a surface upon which to buoy language, but as a core construction of the poem, in visual and kinetic relationship with text. One of our most challenging and rewarding poets, the pleasure is to simply marvel.
From "Vamp ('avant pied')"
In laughter you acquit
the betwixt divided
by half and half helped into the indecent
parentheses brooding on
reasoning, resonance--too much reverb
lay in the epilogue
