I imagine this a great accompanyment to John Coltane in 1965. x steve fly
…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

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.”
