Jamie Manias. "Constellationization." Voidspace no. 14

[coraline-piange]

loverboy

a mosaic of him:

the golden hue of dusk, essence of

a shield of bruised knuckles red

sewn patches over purple wounds, thread thin

pink kisses under soft lantern light, stolen taste of heaven

blue tinted bright smiles and bared teeth

lyra, green glow of a constellation

the yellow bloom of a dandelion, rising through the concrete cracks

softness persevering

I am not my mother's daughter

I am the eldest daughter of an eldest daughter

Sometimes I think I'd make a better father

Not to be an eldest son, but because I am not like her

I do not love like my mother

I love like my father

I am not who they want me to be

But I am me, and that will be enough

Asks the man standing on some cliff in the wilderness in the same pose as the rest.

What does it take to win this man? It doesn’t take much.

He likes

Words of affirmation and physical touch

Loyalty and honesty are what he seeks

He thinks liking Game of Thrones and Stars Wars makes him a geek.

He says communication is a must. He’ll send a

Heyy

Hiii

Hey~

And let the conversation r u s t

I don’t know why they call the app Hinge

When a better word to describe the experience would be CRINGE.

Voidspace Magazine is using my piece, Clippings, for their pop-up prompt!

Link here:

There's also a prompt from a piece called Cross-Sections; which involves using photo manipulation in order to embed images in letters and then writing a poem with the letters for added layers of meaning. It's very cool! So if you are looking to scratch a creative itch, check these out!

Meditative Week of Poetry: Stephanie Sexton

Part 1. You are golden-haired and 19 and unremarkable in many ways; the only son is how the newspapers will describe you. You have a sister. Whatever propels you, some overwhelm of elsewhere, the lure of fortune in the other hemisphere, you’re aboard the S.S. Orion, hunter, walker on water. You’re not the worst sort of boy. It will be a long time, you should write to your mother.

Just playing with Twine again.

I’m working on something a little more... thought out, but I felt like throwing something together quickly tonight.

Stir Fry Texts

Πρόκειται για ένα έργο διαδραστικής ποίησης του Jim Andrews, που έγραψε το 1999 μαζί με τους Brian Lennon και Pauline Masurel. Ο κώδικας είναι γραμμένος σε DHTML. Κάθε κομμάτι του έργου είναι ένα διαδραστικό κείμενο, του οποίου οι λέξεις αλλάζουν κάθε φορά που ο αναγνώστης περνάει με το ποντίκι του υπολογιστή από πάνω τους. Αν και καθένα από αυτά τα κομμάτια αποτελεί ένα ξεχωριστό πείραμα, με την δικιά του θεματική, συνολικά το έργο θέτει ερωτήματα σε σχέση με το ποιος είναι ο δημιουργός ή συγγραφέας ενός τέτοιου έργου που δημιουργείται διαδραστικά σε σχέση με το υποκείμενο-αναγνώστη, αλλά και υπονοεί πως το κείμενο το ίδιο ίσως έχει μια δικιά του ζωή ή υπόσταση.
