“Poetry at large in America is naturally a reflection of the American system and culture. That's my possibly narrow view of it, or reductive view. But I think for as many portals for critical consciousness in the poetry world and in the American spirit that exist, there's also an over-arching, dominant mirroring, in poetry, of the corporate structure, the capitalist enterprise.” ThinkingWorldAmericaSpiritCultureViewsConsciousnessReflectionStructureCriticalCorporateEnterpriseCapitalistDominantPortalMirroringAmerican Spirit Author:Fady Joudah
“Since so much of the poetry machine is consumed in and with the mirroring and the reproduction of what is already preexistent, I don't understand why such paranoiac conservatism is dedicated to labels. It's a way of controlling the "other," to label them.” WayMachinesLabelsDedicatedConservatismConsumedReproductionMirroring Author:Fady Joudah
