Did you know, Moe?

A rhythmic, psychedelic poem featuring vibrant synthography and a "Beatnik" soul: it asks, If all streams converge, who truly swims upstream?

A new book of poetry by Teets, one I was honored to write an introduction to, and now I get to meet the final product! If you haven't found the transformative beat cynicism of his work, you can now.

๐Ÿ—“๏ธ 1869 โ€“ First public telephone exchange opens in London
(Spoken through a cracked receiver, somewhere between truth and slang)
The first game of telephone started long before
some lump of school (fool) in London decided that they had rhyming
true to death (breath);
yet to be (free)
short of sheet (in the street)
pleasure and pain (rain) soaking my rank and riches (breeches)
outside the near-far (bar)
trying to smoke my oily rag (cigarette).

On the Road was published today.
Kerouacโ€™s myth hit the page.
Hereโ€™s mine.

on the road again
just canโ€™t wait
to get on the road againโ€”
the life i love
is making beat books
with my friends
and i just canโ€™t wait
to get on the road

Itinerant grittiness to poem after poem revealing speakers tormented by false theologies, swindling opportunistic politics, and violent despair.
And even then, a sometimes nuanced mythology and spirituality. It's beat poetry made anew.

Review: "After the Fall" by William Teets -

I'm beat. And I'm a poet.
Just like Alan Ginsberg, don't you know it.

Phillipa Fallon Performs "High School Drag" (1958)

YouTube

you are my bread
and the hairline
noise
of my bones
you are almost
the sea

you are not stone
or molten sound
I think
you have no hands

this kind of bird flies backward
and this love
breaks on a windowpane
where no light talks

this is not time
for crossing tongues
(the sand here
never shifts)

I think
tomorrow
turned you with his toe
and you will
shine
and shine
unspent and underground

(Diane di Prima)
