Clearing Without Reversal by Cathy Eisenhower, new from Edge Books
NEW FROM EDGE BOOKS
Clearing Without Reversal
Cathy Eisenhower
ISBN: 978-1-890311-27-8
80 pages, Cover by the author
Design by Justin Sirois
$11.00 direct from Aerial/Edge (regularly $15)
We are deceived at every level by our behavior. You are grammar and the city is syntax. This book has the brilliant, vulgar, infinite, intimate, alluring vivacity of the real. If you search these poems for meaning that can be summarized, you will find multiple meanings, all of them capable of confounding any summary by proposing its own opposite, its own doppelganger, its own disguise, its own cohort. Cathy Eisenhower brandishes the whip. The psyche rises as a mist from things that are wet. --Doug Lang
These poems glow in the dark. And are so sharp—("fleet of heart"). And every here word is true—startlingly ordered, uncannily combined, in harsh light—("the time it takes / to wash the fire from your face")—bringing truth back again to beauty—not an easy beauty, but a smart one, hard-won, and permanent. --Cole Swensen

Breathalyzer in Publishers Weekly
Breathalyzer
K. Silem Mohammad. Edge (SPD, dist.), $15 paper (80p) ISBN 978-1-890311-23-0
Mohammad's methods place him (with Katie Degentesh, Gary Sullivan and others) in the recent school of poets called Flarfists, who derive their work from Internet searches and treasure outlandish “bad” or tasteless lines. After three books and countless provocative posts on his popular blog, lime-tree.blogspot.com, Mohammad may no longer count as an enfant terrible, but his poetry retains its destructive force. Sometimes baffling, often offensive, on occasion ingenious, Mohammad highlights cheesy, clunky or trashy locutions in a frontal attack on our notions of poetic craft, culture and taste. His works can morph into perverse self-portraits: “some people think I'm a gluttonous porcine/ furry man-killing goldmine made of sweet gold.” Some titles mock icons of culture as in the parodies of Frank O'Hara with which the volume concludes. Others pile on such celebrities as Celine Dion or try hard to violate taboos (“Mom forced me to drink her shimmering oriole juice”). Sometimes Mohammad attacks both sense and grammar: “subtext beef guilt philanthropy blanket/ titanium seagull prong.” The outlandish vagaries of Mohammad's new work will stoke the fires of those who have found thrills and controversy in Flarf so far.

Experimental Voiceworks with Jenny Graf, BLK w/BEAR & Croniamantal
Croniamantal--The resurrection of El Possible's first lab project:: electro-acoustic free improvisors joined with one avant-garde poet. For this incarnation: Jeff Bagato--cheesy keyboard; Amber Dunleavy--theremin; Layne Garrett--guitar, found stuff; Pat Gillis--modular synth; Paolo Vallodolid--cello; Rod Smith--bard.
Jenny Graf--Baltimore based musician (and art professor!) Jenny Graf Sheppard creates vivid, compelling soundworlds using intuitive/primitive homebrewed electronic (including stuff made by Pete Blasser), guitar, and voice. Jenny is one-half the famed noise duos Harrius (with Chiara Giovando, LP on Ehse records) and Metallux (with MV Carbon, recordings on Hanson, Load, and 5RC/Kill Rock Stars). This is a rare solo set, not to be missed!
BLK w/BEAR--Towering drone science from DC's Jim Adams, formed from Voice-o-Graph records and other sound sources.

Feast on Mesmer
" . . . to put it baldly: many writers verbally subvert corporate mentalities, but this poetry is outright sabotage."
Happy Anniversary
"George W. Bush is a recidivist war criminal and chronic violator of so many laws that the Center for Constitutional Rights has clustered them into five major impeachable 'High Crimes and Misdemeanors' (under Article II, section .4)
"Scores of leaders of the bar, including Michael Greco, former president of the American Bar Association, and legal scholars and former Congressional lawmakers have decried his laceration of the rule of law and his frequent declarations that signify that he believes he is above the law.
Many retired high military officers, diplomats and security officials have openly opposed his costly militaristic disasters.
"Only Cong. Dennis Kucinich (Dem. Ohio) has publicly called for his impeachment.
"No other member of Congress has moved toward his impeachment. To the contrary, Speaker Nancy Pelosi (Dem. Calif.), Rep. Steny Hoyer (Dem. MD) and House Judiciary Committee Chairman, John Conyers (dem. Mich.) publicly took “impeachment off the table” in 2006.
"When Senator Russ Feingold (Dem. Wisc.) introduced a Resolution to merely censure George W. Bush for his clear, repeated violations of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act—a felony—his fellow Democrats looked the other way and ignored him."

Our beloved friend Flash passed away January 6th in Virginia. He had been ill for several months but remained loving and present. I've never met another dog who went to so many poetry readings. He will be missed by many.
