Three Visual Poems

Michael Basinski, visual poet, has three visual poems published in Anti-.

Anti- enters the world of Visual Poetry this month featuring the work of Michael Basinski.

He has this to say about his work:

“What Why I DIsliek Poetry Distill is it if is it a, a, I, A, become increasing restrictive disease of the as Popeye would sayit the edjumacated, perfuming their big brains as control ovf meaning and mashuremints, with all their Goddamned rults like a government”

Anti- is an online publication “interested in work that blurs boundaries: between verse and prose, traditional and cutting edge, metrical and free, humorous and scary, narrative and lyric and linguistically fragmented.”

A recent post at dbqp mentions this collection of Basinski’s work, in an interesting comparison of visual poetry to illustration.
