[The Superficial]

“The Physical Poets Home Library is an anthology of writing by small groups of friends across North America, self-editing each volume. Since autonomous editorial oversight is left in the hands of each volume’s participant editors, no form or genre will be sanctioned.”

Vol. 1 is hand sewn and so handsome that it may seem it was first invented for you. Buy it online for $5. Here’s a Marie Buck poem stolen from the Physical Poetry site.

Gravitate to Me

I, babe in arms, drink no men or women alike.

Cut short the confession. I observe Katie and Tom.

I grin: I’ve been ensconced.

I would tell them the story about a beautiful baby girl.

Before asking her to marry him, he transformed himself into an angel.

My life is brilliant, no holds barred.

And that’s what I, Suri, am: the joy.

Enjoy the lady once more. Soon

you will be on top of the world.

We laugh. From the looks of things, you’re already there.

The house has the feeling of a sprawling lodge or chalet.

It is perfect.

There are stories upon stories exchanged.

A breathtaking sunset descends on the southwest ridges.

This is my family, and I care so much about them.

I see not how you can quit this place without being known.

20 CHESTER AVENUE

Tuesday, July 3rd, 2007

A week later, the architects had clearly let their imaginations run riot, transmogrifying a simple but large (20 rooms) house in Brooklyn into a remodeling experiment designed with David Lynch in mind.

Mr. Lynch, who made the movie “Blue Velvet” and the television series “Twin Peaks,” has a strange sensibility — and so has the client.

“We’ve never seen this guy,” Mr. Voorsanger said, speaking of the imaginary client as if he were real — and elusive. “He refuses to see us. He just writes us letters and communicates through e-mails. He said he was enormously moved by Cormac McCarthy’s new book, ‘The Road,’ in which everything is black. Chip Kidd did the cover.”

The way the architects tell it, they suggested to the client that he turn the driveway into a garden.

“But he would only approve it if it were ‘a landscape of no hope,’ ” Mr. Voorsanger said, while his colleagues — now including Peggy Loar — nodded.
