Description

Artist Statement
A fancy way/method for branching, poetic lines out of lines, extending the poem down and out, read through node or nodeless. The poetic notion is more than simple. Write a poem, perhaps ten lines long. Then explore each of the lines, imagine poems which might build from them. Your poem might now have three branches extending from the trunk. Now choose lines from the branches and extend those, trees on trees. Geometry is both important and not important. Such meaningless statements are designed to coax vague thoughts an academic wonder. Are you now an academic wonder? You are. You are. Just because I am silly doesn't mean I'm not entirely serious. Whatever that means.
