[New-Poetry] the NewPo Public Monument Project

[Alexander Dickow]

On a similar and even more pie-in-the-sky note, --
though I don't know that it squares with Bob's idea
for his list, although I'd be interested to be a part
of that also -- wouldn't it be thrilling (it would as
far as I'm concerned, anyhow) to do a little book
exchanging amongst the NewPo crowd? I don't have any
books out yet (a possible publisher of a full-length
is currently keeping me waiting for an actual
contract, and I'm getting so impatient that my
fingernails are going to explode like firecrackers
very shortly now...but don't nobody be gittin their
hopes up just yet...)? I imagine I'm not alone in
lacking the cash to buy more than one or two, but
trading is a great means of reading each other without
the financial pressures. (This of course sets aside
those who have extensive online books publishings,
like our wonderfully democratic and eminently readable
Hal, not to mention Bob's Mathematiku and others). On
the other hand, no idea how we'd set up such a
thing....
In re: Bob's list, it seems to me the major obstacle
is that names don't contain much in themselves: one
would hope perhaps vainly for annotations, in order
that one knows what to look for behind the name and/or
label (ie "langpo" "vispo" etc).
Thanks for the kind words, all. 
Amicalement,
Alex
