the new concrete: an online course in attentive poetics

‎ The editors of The New Concrete: Visual Poetry in the 21st Century , Victoria Bean and Chris McCabe, will be leading an online course for The Poetry School , beginning on 15th September 2015. The New Concrete: Visual Poetry in the 21st Century (Hayward Publishing, 2015) One of the narratives of visual poetry since the 1950s is that the form has become one that can be taken up by any poet at some stage of their writing life. The concrete movement had such a strong impact that it's impossible not to write poetry and to consider, at some point, how these techniques might be put into practice in a particular poem or sequence. Edwin Morgan is significant here. His work is remarkable for its variety, dexterity and energy.

He told the magistrate this morning that policemen followed him about to lock him up for being drunk, and that he smashed the window to save himself from being locked up. Mr. Saunders said: 'The Court stinks with your name, and you stand in such bad odour that all policemen look after you, knowing you are a dangerous man.' audience gathering at the start of

Election Special, Lingua Franca

A monochrome snap of Ted Heath stared from under the boiler for days, my pulse pounding boards like a teenager looking for doors in a house of voils. If anyone broke-in they would never find the bank notes rolled within the veneered curves of the Russian Dolls. Someone said that to make a genuine New Start you need a to-scale Ark of animals & a green visor. My wires were tangled in a basket of sugar - I'd spent too long in a bad support network of the ridiculous. She asked : is bilingualism an option for either sex? Just try I said : the lingua franca is a dish of coins and pasta twists. But eating cucumber & then the phone book led to an aftertaste of ISBNs from books that hadn't &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp&nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &a
