In some ways, what I do editing or publishing is geared to the same sense of detachment that arises when I'm writing, each piece is a moment marked in time and set aside for the next moment. ![]() I don't look at publishing poetry as anything more than a working of impermanence, in the way that a conversation moves smoothly through arising differences and allows for anything, takes a subject, like a poem, picks it up for a moment and then sets it back down. Community in the sense of a desire that whatever I am editing works toward allowing the formation of an integrated network of disparate voices, however temporary and transient. Chance in the unlikely alignment of latching onto good poems available for publication and that suit the nature of whatever I'm editing at the time. ![]() Chance and community might best describe how I edit and publish poetry. ![]()
