A couple months ago, I tried two new things while typing Free Poetry during the Pasadena Art Walk: I used carbon paper for copies, and took photographs of each participant. Here's a Poetry Portrait & Poem for Rebekah.

Poetry Portrait for Rebekah (via Typewriter Poetry):

We connected over Hawaii & the Big Island, where she’s from. I asked what brought her to the mainland. She’s studying at Cal Tech for her graduate degree. She told me about a friend who, for a communications assignment, didn’t break eye contact with whoever he was talking to. We laughed at the awkwardness of sitting in a chair, being observed by someone writing about you. She recognized my writing flow, as she writes too—I only know what it’s like to be the observing poet in these situations, so I really appreciated hearing her perspective.

“As We Peel Back The Layers Of The Artist’s Anticipated Level Of Engagement, We Find Numerous Sources Of Radical, Inclusionary, Destructive Creation Visions Reconstructed In Such A Manner That One Would Have To Lack All Sensation In Order To Dehumanize Such An Authentic Rendition Of Our Given Subjective Realities” by billimarie (via Typewriter Poetry)
