Here's another question:

This attempt to achieve the Literary through such an ad hoc
back door will satisfy no one.
(Harvard Standard)
Ouch.---discuss

and @ (http://wings.buffalo.edu/epc/authors/glazier/e/maps.html)
is Glazier's "map" of his poem, one of the quotes includes:
"When words are, meaning soon follows. Where words join,
writing is" (Silliman) Is this an operative explanation of the
non-linearity in both content and structure found within -E-?
Is this a definition of language poetry?

FYI, if you wanted to read a conversation between our very own
prof. Unsworth (sorry for the unnecessary publicity) and Loss
Glazier, go to (http://wings.buffalo.edu/epc/rift) and around
that area are other Glazier poems.

I will write back later tomorrow when the server is less
fickle, but until then please feel free to rip these ideas to
shreads, or perhaps put them back to together, whichever.
