Joan Houlihan: origin of the pieces
http://joanhoulihan.blogspot.com/2008/11/origin-of-pieces.html
Poet, Critic, Educator. Friday, November 28, 2008. Origin of the pieces. What's broken commands attention. Glass shatters and there is surprise, danger, sharp edges, and the scattered pieces reflect light in unexpected ways. A disturbance of wholeness and immediately we are provoked to wonder: what was it before it broke? An excellent and visual example of provocative fragmenting is Mary Ruefelle's A Little White Shadow. Is there a hint of story to be reconstructed? An identifiable emotional center?

Joan Houlihan: and we all shine on..(or not)
http://joanhoulihan.blogspot.com/2009/12/and-we-all-shine-onor-not.html
Poet, Critic, Educator. Tuesday, December 15, 2009. And we all shine on.(or not). Coming off a year of teaching in two MFA programs, one private workshop and several Colrain manuscript conference/intensives, I approached Stephen Burt's collection of essays (. Close Calls with Nonsense. With Burt's essays in mind, I revisited the article by Matthew Zapruder ("Show Your Work! In fact, revisiting. Praising it New—The Best of the New Criticism. And what is that preference if not a kind of rating? Gary B....

Whispers from the Unseen. A Journal and Forum for Writing in the Arts. A Little String to Pull. By J Scott Mosel. I remember it like it was yesterday. How we held hands and cried below a window. Filled with light, branches bending the wind. You wore your blue soul, just the way I like it,. The one with the open back, folds above the hips,. A litle string to pull and find God. You spent the morning in the Egyptian room,. Touching the black sarcophagus , flirting. With the docents, as you remained unnoticed.

Joan Houlihan: August 2008
http://joanhoulihan.blogspot.com/2008_08_01_archive.html
Poet, Critic, Educator. Monday, August 11, 2008. What does it mean to be a poetry critic? Should a poetry critic also be a poet? Aren't all poets critics by necessity? Some poets are also editors, requiring them to make judgments of work submitted to them. How is this done if not by thinking critically about poetry, seeing the poem as an aesthetic object and attempting to understand and articulate, if only to oneself, how and what it is doing? At the Harriet Blog, DA Powell. Posted by Joan Houlihan.

Dr. Quigley Belonged To A Tribe | Whispers from the Unseen
http://www.unseenwhispers.com/2012/01/30/dr-quigley-belonged-to-a-tribe
Whispers from the Unseen. A Journal and Forum for Writing in the Arts. Dr Quigley Belonged To A Tribe. By J Scott Mosel. Dr Quigley began to take his coffee. Black, right about the time a clover. Appeared on his chest. At first he thought it was a type of stigmata. He belonged to a tribe that did not yet exist,. And this gave him enormous satisfaction. At night he dreamt deeply, his extended family. Vacationing on cruise ships along the west coast. Of California, probably Venice Beach,. Close to the rive...

Whispers from the Unseen. A Journal and Forum for Writing in the Arts. Dr Quigley Walked the Streets. By J Scott Mosel. Two suicides in one season. And Dr. Quiqley walked the streets in vain. A poetry for this does not exist. He watched the snow begin to fall,. Large wisps that tapered off into fog,. Soft pebbles of light in the 21st century. If only you were born in a nearby star! If only you were a message from God,. Manna from another universe,. Or this one. He did not care. And as his breath deepened.

Dr. Quigley Walked Down 7th Street | Whispers from the Unseen

Whispers from the Unseen. A Journal and Forum for Writing in the Arts. Dr Quigley Walked Down 7th Street. By J Scott Mosel. Dr Quigley walked down 7th street to enter Chinatown. Amused by the big screen televisions, he stopped. For a moment to stare at a commercial of butterflies. Helping an insomniac go to sleep. Tender, sleep. Last night he dreamt of long palatial hallways. In the hospitals for the damned, afraid to look sideways. Into a room, afraid to see death,. The smell of feces in his nose. Nothi...

Joan Houlihan: February 2008
http://joanhoulihan.blogspot.com/2008_02_01_archive.html
Poet, Critic, Educator. Wednesday, February 20, 2008. Musing on the line. All this talk of ellipticism and parataxis has naturally led me to a deeper consideration of syntax and the poetic line in general. By a happy coincidence I discovered I had a copy of the newly-published (Graywolf). The Art of the Poetic Line. I am also reading Matthea Harvey’s. A good collection to read in tandem with Longenbach. Posted by Joan Houlihan. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Photograph by Thomas Sayers Ellis.
