Holding it together...

28/08/2024

"Fulfillment is only found in caring for others. In being greater than ourselves. Selfishness is cruelty. It's miserable. I always say that love and responsibility are the same thing. Without responsibility, love is a sort of illusion.
So fulfillment is giving. Mostly love. And love is a liberating action. And this is why we stand with Fal🍉stin and with all people around the world defending justice and independence. Poetry is liberation, and liberation is about all of us."

14 (Plus) Reasons Why is now available worldwide via our website :

a poetry collection by Jennifer Schneider.

16/03/2023

"14 (Plus) Reasons Why immerses us in new meanings and definitions for poetry. It’s interactive, filled with questions that remind me that creative writing is an art with an amorphous & limitless medium: meaning. Providing tools for thought and imagination, this collection would be part of literature curriculums in a totally cool and way more thoughtful world: "If schools wish to teach tales of truth, all truths must be taught." While today’s mainstream poetry sits on shopping mall shelves fueled by grandeur and patriotism, Amazon tries to take over the world, and poets like Jen Schneider explore the great art vortex: "How does democracy preserve story? How does story preserve democracy?." In “On Forced Air, Feigned Ignorance & Heirs of Many Forces”, she writes:

the forced
air, artificial & angry –
perhaps due to circumstance,
more likely a result of happenstance,
fussed, churned, and chortled
like sour milk in an aluminum bowl
stained & scarred of rust
& riddles of time.

Epiphanies are everywhere it appears. on unmade beds & new (never) lands. on low tides :: calls of/to/from home. on decisions :: where cheese cloth sentiments & practicality tango. on days of regression, repression, & recess. on forced air. on mammals & manuals. on negative (wheel) revolutions. on life rafts & weekday baths. none of us travel alone . . .

Writers like Stein, Pound, Waldrop and Wright opened the windows, and it’s thrilling to watch poets like Jennifer Schneider create new structures and possibilities in the landscape. For everyone who loves fill-in-the-blanks and create-by-numbers art. This is poetry that explores why it matters and what it gives to us. A collection for all who value questions, curiosity, deep thinking and extraordinary writing."
