  • Liffissippi River to Joyce’s Poundland

    …and when the mode of the
    music changes
                               the walls of the
                                        city shake

         a perspective from relative place
                      humbled individual to their part
    in universe and other

    single individuated mind
                                          in time
    gathering tales and knick knacks
                   of history into a trick bag

    do you feel melody and riddim’
    in verse
           word sound image sandwiches
    attention to source
                       to _____ and just story

    word jazz s c r a b l e m and
    recontext’ of everything
                       in John Coltrane and
    James Joyce

                  Pound’s eccentricity flows
    to American in Europe, Joyce’s concentricity
                                           circulates the planet

    two sides of a new shiny coin
                                        ideograms on side a
                             hologrammic prose on the flip

    two torrential rivers of ink
                             bleeding shared currents
                                                               liffissippi

    Joyce’s Be-Bop and
                                 Pound’s symphonic compositions
    cut and mixed together

    Homeric history and Ulysses
                           in a conch shell sunset
                                      and a Dublin street fight

    the inner
    Joyce and the
    outer
                         Pound dynastic index
                             Irish American tell all tales

    The Cantos awake
                             a wake Cantos:
                     a dream/nightmare from
    which I am trying to awake
    (not)

                    sleepwalking giants leave
                           footprints in the mud
    trackers reverse the prints
                                          into beasts

    explicit Cantos give us facts
                  weights and measures, the dates
    places, names and flames to wit

                         implicit Finnegan offers us
    truer ficts, rubber inches,
               neurological realism and the funnies

    …like J.C’s Ballads versus
                                                       Stellar Regions
                  it’s a whole different thing
                                           consistent in its genius

                      ‘FW is psycho-archaeology
            Dr Wilson said.
                 ‘no mystery about the Cantos,
    Pound said.
                                                 they are the tale of
                            the tribe

  • JOHN SINCLAIR & SHARING COUNTER-CULTURE

    The epic & encyclopedic – back catalogue – of music and writings from John Sinclair, will soon be available for – digital download – and SHARED’ availability. Many of his works have been tragically lost, to both personal and national disasters of one kind or another; other works have been miss-placed and kept in storage for a long long time, and, like any other great archeological anthropological discovery from the African heartlands – the opening of the JOHN SINCLAIR archives and vaults provides a rich resource of counter-cultural gems and treasures, useful feedback for all humanity to process.

    So, i thought i could contribute a little something in the way of a hyperlinked guide to John Sinclair in cyberspace, and the places and spaces you can find his footprints and fresh air. I will also begin the work on his recommended reading/listening list from the back of GUITAR ARMY.

    “John Sinclair is a huge lover with masses of curly black hair flowing all over his head and shoulders. . . He and his White Panther brothers and sisters from Ann Arbor, Michigan are the most alive force in the whole Midwest. They turn on thousands of kids each week to their own beauty and build them into warriors and artists of the new Nation. . . For this some bald-headed judge named Columbo sentenced John Sinclair to nine-and-a-half to ten years in the penitentiary at Jackson, Michigan.”
    — Abbie Hoffman
