J. D. Nelson (b. 1971) is the author of eleven chapbooks and e-books of poetry, including purgatorio (wlovolw, 2024).

in ghostly onehead (Post-Asemic Press, 2022) is his first full-length collection.

Nelson’s poetry is greatly influenced by Dada and Surrealism, and also by the developments of the Beat writers, especially Jack Kerouac’s spontaneous prose technique and the cut-up technique pioneered by William S. Burroughs. Most of his poems are created through the cutting up and collaging of his own freewriting. Nelson also writes haiku and senryū in English.

His poem, “to mask a little bird” was nominated for Best of the Net in 2021. Four of his haiku were nominated for The Haiku Foundation 2023 Touchstone Award for Individual Poems.

William S. Burroughs
“This is a war universe. War all the time. That is its nature. There may be other universes based on all sorts of other principles, but ours seems to be based on war and games. All games are basically hostile. Winners and losers. We see them all around us: the winners and the losers. The losers can oftentimes become winners, and the winners can very easily become losers. ”
William S. Burroughs
