I wondered first whether to approach them as a pair, a union of literary endeavor, or as two completely separate writers. It became apparent during the interview that although they share similar impulses, they each have a singular voice, as well as their own computer. I'm interested in being right here, no veils. As I state in the sentences which lead up to this quotation, I'm thinking of the kinds of poetry which are more about making meanings than about the pursuit of essence. I don't want to proliferate meanings through the production of novel phrases, the making of novel language.
More meaning means nothing, just more words.
But I'm intensely concerned about how poetry should now be seeking a more public space, not in replacement for sophisticated postmodernism, but in addition to it. I spoke of postmodern philosophies in the plural rather than targeting precise doctrines or practices, for I'm just trying to see what's missing. I don't see how any philosophy can be finally cogent if we fail to understand how the mind and brain are associated on micro-levels. All our experience remains as mysterious as it ever was.
