The Editorial
. . . Under any circumstances, poems that matter
are failures - if they are big, immediately gettable things they advance
nothing. There are poems that make everyone in the room stop breathing,
that pull you out of samsara long enough to think or feel something that
you wouldn't otherwise. But a groundbreaking poem - one that allows you
to experience what would otherwise be culturally impossible - a groundbreaking
poem sinks into the earth with only a slight trace. This is when the community
steps in in some cases a tiny community - one person even - who
comes across a body of work & pushes it forward, does the legwork,
gets it not just published but received . . .
