Disembodied Poetics | poetry is not an expression of the party line. it’s that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that’s what the poet does.

Poetry is WRITING the party line. Revealing the universal. Bridging heaven. It is order and balance and the elements of design. Repetition and variety. Assonance, resonance, alliteration, onomatopoeia. and rime (if only on a subliminal level) Poetry is the refined perfection of verbal communication. Sobbing is in iambic pentameter, the Gayatri meter
Is Chris Cole WRITING the party line. He is there with a brush hook, clearing the way for the surveyor.

Awesome Chris! Remember the parties we would have in the old apt. And the typewriter we would construct poems with during some of the many parties?

i’ll tumbl 4 u

mixtape
i have arms all along my tracks
the tissue that runs through magnetic strips
they don’t even call them tapes anymore
the bouncing lights that let us know
if things are gonna be alright
if what we were really trying to say
would come across
the sounds that escape the atmosphere
and penetrate the night
the words that escape our lips
and write themselves in magic marker

there were lists that we made
and never wrote down
there were songs that will never mean anything else
than what they meant
when we heard them
in a car
in a field
in a time we never imagined would pass
until it did
