Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Titulus Bl has bardic concern. It puts a title above a door: "Form PoetryIs Not Dead." Even Christ had a title placed above his body when he wasconcerned about something. So, this collection is a "signed" announcement &question: It wonders how can language poetry's inquiry be found in the midstof modernist form and riddle? How can language poetry, parable and versepoetry be forged into a cleft in order to make a liminal, interstitial plane heftin between a rock and a hard place? A riddling sign may be the only way out.This is a very masculine and intentional collection. The poet considers Bahktin'sequivalencies, Bernstein's L=A=N=G=U=A=G=E, the consequential in Harjo'swork and Derrida's commitment to tracing poetry to one's heart, "archive." Inthis collection the poet is bl, in an expressed mood as well as satisfaction. Itis a sign, and it is a color. There are many puzzles, poetic forms, prose essaysand cohens. Just like the Titulus Crucis, it uses acrostic; it sacrifices itself andseriousness in order to make an important claim: Form poetry is not dead.
