“But all art is sensual and poetry particularly so. It is directly, that is, of the senses, and since the senses do not exist without an object for their employment all art is necessarily objective. It doesn’t declaim or explain, it presents.”

A little over a month ago Put-Pockets hosted its first event: a poetry recording. The night consisted of poets recording each other reading some of their favorite poems, which would later be turned into poetry playlists, and creating cover art for the cds. It was a lot of fun and definitely something we'd like to do again in the future. For the time being, here is the first installment of photos:

A wide variety of poetry books to choose from...
