I love this album
billorcutt.bsky.social Bill Orcutt @billorcutt.bsky.social · Dec 6
Here's the new one — kinda sounds like Derek Bailey's jungle record but with Perry Como instead of drum n bass. Shipping now on the Orcutt bandcamp…

London weird music types might recognize the LP cover subject as Cafe Oto's backline Fender Twin.

Can a poem know things that the poet does not?

“The Condition” by Nadra Mabrouk
THE CONDITION My Mother tells me that God says even if, even while, the world ends around you, earth tearing root by root, even while the horses stagger into holes, neighing into the darkness, filling their mouths to the throat, when the horn sounds off, Israfil balancing his clouded weight on a rock, his lips cracking and gold, even while you hear the ghosts leaving the spines, their hair longer than ever, breaths coming out in timed instruments, even while the waters seethe open, bodies rolling to the shore. If there is a seed in your palm, you must bend to the soil and plant it.

If I Said by Sally Rosen Kindred
If I Said to my mother That you were once a doll tucked in the arm of the crooked birch. That we nested lilacs in our lashes but in the morning we could not open our eyes. (Woke but the lids were closed. Woke, but the roof refused.) That you could fasten your song to this cradle-milk sky, that you could lie down to be named here, your bones ribbons, your bones a glass net. And your sorrow the bird in it, beating. And if I said you'd always loved me, that I was your mother, and you had never been mine-my lonely wren, you would believe, you would unclench your grief, let it slip from the silver tree. I say songs are a mercy. Our sleep delivers the leaves. That you are not sick anymore, not sorry-and (feathers, soft blooms) you remember me.

The poet as Bodhisattva. Dear Reader by James Tate
Dear Reader I am trying to pry open your casket with this burning snowflake. I'll give up my sleep for you. This freezing sleet keeps coming down and I can barely see. If this trick works we can rub our hands together, maybe start a little fire with our idenification papers. I don't know but I keep working, working half hating you, half eaten by the moon.
