CRISIS

Poetry is the language of a state of crisis.

Stéphane Mallarmé




Past and future monopolize the poet’s sensory and intellectual faculties, detached from the immediate spectacle. These two philtres become utterly clear the moment one stops being hypnotized by the cloudy precipitate constituted by the world of today.”

BABYLON

Every poem is a love poem. It's the reason a man & a woman were made & why poetry fell to us from the gardens of Babylon, to guide us on the broken wall from here to there.

John Feddeler
