Up at The Conversant: Gillian Hamel interviews Rebecca Gaydos about Gaydos’s new poetry collection “Güera:”

Gaydos: I do 'write from experience,' as they say. For instance, threaded throughout this book are various love poems that are based on actual romantic relationships, relationships that happened as part of my everyday life. But when pieces of language, gestures, stores, bars, etc. get onto the page, something else has already happened or is about to happen...

Reality feels plotless but not patternless, and poetry seems to me the most accurate means of perceiving those patterns in their true range and simultaneity.

Memory is ultimately an act of art-making. The way we reassemble scenes in our minds is just like how a painter marshals elements of his composition and puts them within a form. Naturally, this process is filled with fraught binaries. What we remember at any given moment may be dependent on external factors acting upon us, physiological things, yes, and also maybe immediate life experiences. And eventually, the memory itself dictates our idea of the past, and therefore, colors the present and the future.

Over at The Conversant there’s an interview with me—conducted by my dearest bestie Trey Moody—wherein I jaw about John Clare’s insanity, humor in Suzanne Buffam’s poetry, Ezra Pound, Emily Dickinson, the stupidity of the television program Reno 9-11, my poetry collection This Last Time Will Be The First, where I did my community service after I went to jail (just county/NBD), and a grip of other stuff.
