Breaking Prose

In my last post I talked about how I wrote All Married Together and “miranda” at the same time, almost simultaneously. Wildly different stories and styles. And yet…

…if I think about it, both are reflections of my desire to break apart the barrier between prose and poetry. I think that’s been the impetus to my writing from the very beginning. Why the writing is minimal. I want to take the language near the breaking point, which the best poetry often does. There, at that point of merging, language becomes freer, interpretations personal and primal, the reading a knowledge beyond language.
