what cut deepest for me was sense of place, the gulls, the stink of fish, the fishermans huts
and also the atlantic, the cod fishers pushing off from Cornwall, Ireland, Portugal, the whalers,

bah you sound like my mate who said english poetry started with chaucer and came to an end with eliot. that's missing out on dorn, olson, creeley, prynne etc plus loads more. "abstruse word games for tiny print runs" is just a snob take i'll ignore that.You know I think poetry has come to the end of the line in terms of lineage and development and that it also has no real social or cultural function any more to make up for that. That is partly why I have no patience for Prynne composing abstruse word games for tiny print runs or the game that Prynne fans like to play by striving to join semantic dots or squeeze out lexical patterns. It seems so sterile to me.
