Report #01 / 19 JAN 09


The first episode I recorded in Montana back in early November (it may have been confusing to hear me mention a "light dusting of snow" for a piece that aired in January). This and the next couple were recorded previously, but soon the episodes will catch up and be recorded only a couple days before their air dates.

The poem "Federico Garcia Lorca Reminds me of Robert Frost" was published in Pirene's Fountain and The Moon Cracks Open: A Field Guide to the Birds. An image from a Lorca poem (I forget which one -- the book is back in Montana and I'm currently on the road) about the moon rising with pulleys or on a rope or some such thing set me off and before I knew where I was heading, I was looking down those two beckoning roads of Frost. Here's a link to Frost reading his poem.

The music selection this week was "Images" by Sun Ra from Jazz in Silhouette, recorded in Chicago in 1958 for Evidence Music.

  1. Excellent work. Please read "Baby Teeth" in an upcoming episode. She will smoke up nice.

  2. I'm sure "Baby Teeth" would get the show canceled, but maybe I'll write a poem of academic dissertations on smoked fish and read that for you.
