Post-Modern Poetry

"For me, then, the question of procedure is not one of seeking a 'correct,' or valorized device (e.g., the 'new sentence'), but of taking a stance toward language, the activity of composition, and reality, which will call forth strategies and structures that are both generative and unconcealing of their constructedness. In practice, this places the decision over any given procedure in advance of the 'actual writing.' With Tjanting, it took me more than eight months to go from my first rough sketches of what a piece built on the concept of the Fibonacci number series might look like to the composition of a two-word first sentence, 'Not this.'" thats from ron silliman. yeah, his last name is silliman, and he talks about boring shit like that ALL THE TIME. postmodern poetry is like the bitchgoddess who took a dump on your lawn/humped your leg.
