\"\"<\/a>Hank Lazer’s Thinking in Jewish (N20)<\/em><\/a> is the twentieth notebook in his shape-writing series,\u00a0drawing on Jewish traditions of text-and-commentary in conversation on the same page, this one in dialogue with the writings of Emmanuel Levinas. These handwritten poems rather problematize the notion of “line” and are visually as well as audibly and conceptually striking, as you can see from these thumbnails of pages 11, 12 and 13:<\/p>\n

Click on any of these to load a high resolution version. I like to load them on my phone, lock the screen, then zoom in and rotate the phone as the poems shift direction.<\/p>\n

We are launching Thinking in Jewish<\/em> this Wednesday in New Orleans with a special event at the Bloodjet Poetry Series, hosted by Trembling Pillow Press director Megan Burns<\/a>. If you’re in town, please stop by and enjoy. If you’re not in town and want to come, let us know and we’ll skype you in, or something… And if you just want to get a copy of the book, you can pick one up from the website<\/a> for half price, today only.<\/p>\n

Reading with Hank will be a “local poet” named Lavender. He has a bad foot (I mean the physical kind) and doesn’t get out much, preferring to sit at his computer and write things like this. So come see this rare in-the-flesh appearance. He’ll be reading some from Surrealism<\/em><\/a>, his book on our site, including a few in Spanish, translated by Argentine poet Enrique Solinas, and also from one of his (many) grossly underappreciated volumes from Trembling Pillow, Transfixion<\/em><\/a>. Here’s one from that book:<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

me<\/h3>\nhttp:\/\/www.lavenderink.org\/sounds\/me.m4a<\/a><\/audio>\n

 <\/p>\n

come taste this<\/p>\n

fruit little gunner<\/p>\n

he said<\/p>\n

sailing like<\/p>\n

a blind fool<\/p>\n

his fake neutral air<\/p>\n

drowned in a book<\/p>\n

a crook in town<\/p>\n

to repent but<\/p>\n

it was too late<\/p>\n

in the cold living room<\/p>\n

to take off<\/p>\n

his tie<\/p>\n

to touch<\/p>\n

the strange lumps<\/p>\n

beneath the pine\u00a0<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

blackbirds boozy<\/p>\n

the emperor’s drunken<\/p>\n

soldiery abed<\/p>\n

seen over &<\/p>\n

over same old<\/p>\n

sea same old<\/p>\n

sound<\/p>\n

shrill & summery<\/p>\n

that even in<\/p>\n

slumber caused<\/p>\n

his cheek to<\/p>\n

glow every man every<\/p>\n

woman carries<\/p>\n

this filament<\/p>\n

life predestined<\/p>\n

surly & interested like<\/p>\n

the coming on of rain\u00a0<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I infect with<\/p>\n

meaning something exact<\/p>\n

as reality’s dark<\/p>\n

dream when the<\/p>\n

lanterns go out<\/p>\n

the matching skullcap<\/p>\n

& map of brain<\/p>\n

his peatbrown head\u00a0<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

music from a far off room<\/p>\n

like these<\/p>\n

mountains this<\/p>\n

infinite movement<\/p>\n

mingling with all<\/p>\n

sound all<\/p>\n

thought the dull<\/p>\n

sobbing draft<\/p>\n

that moans the<\/p>\n

image of your public self<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

hoarse from<\/p>\n

days drinking<\/p>\n

anticipating a message<\/p>\n

to the armies of<\/p>\n

those engulfed<\/p>\n

in black water\u00a0<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

why does his mind<\/p>\n

envy reed & hawthorne<\/p>\n

is it to have<\/p>\n

a point again<\/p>\n

arranging & changing<\/p>\n

& placing the eye<\/p>\n

again dehumanized\u00a0<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

he has a dozen hands<\/p>\n

& pollackesque friends<\/p>\n

to make germinate<\/p>\n

language as<\/p>\n

a choir of worms<\/p>\n

saying names<\/p>\n

like money spent<\/p>\n

on misconceptions<\/p>\n

whose silver cargo<\/p>\n

vision banished<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

when they pulled me<\/p>\n

from the sack<\/p>\n

I reeked of you<\/p>\n

I defiled you<\/p>\n

the ways you live<\/p>\n

your secrets of life<\/p>\n

joined in spite<\/p>\n

in the attics of<\/p>\n

old houses<\/p>\n

proud full of verse<\/p>\n

what little town<\/p>\n

by river or sea<\/p>\n

gates the flaming<\/p>\n

word that is yourself\u00a0<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

what pursuit what<\/p>\n

struggle to escape<\/p>\n

cuffed & clawed<\/p>\n

but not crying<\/p>\n

what wilderness future<\/p>\n

light of our knowledge<\/p>\n

yields this penelope<\/p>\n

who would reduce<\/p>\n

our banter to<\/p>\n

rules of probability<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

planted on a starlit<\/p>\n

golden bough<\/p>\n

the necessary<\/p>\n

the tap<\/p>\n

the tap that<\/p>\n

nothing satisfies<\/p>\n

but self remembering<\/p>\n

self its former height<\/p>\n

its discordant strains<\/p>\n

its brain that ink<\/p>\n

may mark with vineboughs\u00a0<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

he lay<\/p>\n

back eyes closed<\/p>\n

the eyes of<\/p>\n

youth to roll<\/p>\n

it is a journey he said<\/p>\n

of the curious<\/p>\n

not to be wed forever<\/p>\n

but like one who watches<\/p>\n

down the row of<\/p>\n

statues to see<\/p>\n

the divine nimbus<\/p>\n

a music<\/p>\n

a rose colored<\/p>\n

dress\u00a0<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

we took our seats<\/p>\n

& ghosts & armies<\/p>\n

came down<\/p>\n

green butterflies<\/p>\n

from the age of love\u00a0<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

shadows of<\/p>\n

earthly vehicles\u00a0<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

the sea of air<\/p>\n

the perfumed<\/p>\n

agony of a trance\u00a0<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

you who gave me<\/p>\n

my first you\u00a0<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

you where I<\/p>\n

is a roomful of clothes\u00a0<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

flame that no<\/p>\n

fuel feeds nor<\/p>\n

steel has lit\u00a0<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

flame from<\/p>\n

before the surprise<\/p>\n

before affection &<\/p>\n

shame\u00a0<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

your body\u00a0<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

your loves\u00a0<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

your farewell\u00a0<\/p>\n
