when language begins to devalue its object I wondered why everyone was staring at me in the grocery store and then I got home and realized my hair was sticking out funny and I had a bloody nose poetic value is the value of having a name for the source of terror poetic value is questioning that name for the source of terror “Investments in our distribution platform, product development and international reach fueled sales, while brand building, select divestitures and a focused acquisition strengthened our competitive position even further” poetic value is the freedom to be ineffectual i wished i had been born a ruthless business mogul a tall serious business mogul who are you people anyway . . . across six lanes of traffic to retrieve an 1975 8-track I had tossed out the window after sitting on it for the thirteenth time “Begin by instructing students to use the economic way of thinking to assess and guide their own lives” Bid 8.77 0 Forward P/E Ask 8.80 0 PEG (est. 5 yrs) Volume 237,318 are you taking all of this down poetic value is post-human
royalties of 10 % for foreign translations “I just hate forgetting a great line—the idea is lost forever” The Economy is based on sound principles and will, over the long run, be stable and show steady growth—consumers should not panic but should rather go about their business as usual in language when damage to the soft tissues in the body are described as a product of the mentally/ physically induced environment—if not, the subject may experience complete loss of function
poetic value is “an organized evasion procedure” poetic value finds us, it finds us, we wait, it comes to us, freely, freely—and there is no avoiding it, poetic value happens, you can receive it or look away. . . how not to say, how not to mean, how not to say, how not to speak, how not to say, how not to stay, how not to say, how not to not Words have the power to heal wounds. Out of the mysterious place where words first come to be "made flesh"—
I am a dual citizen, born in America, the son of draft dodgers but my citizenship is of the English language and it is an uneasy allegiance noting that “beetle” might not be the perfect word for a nonEnglish “beetle” In general, chapbooks were inexpensive publications designed for the poorer literate classes. by dual I mean not at all

back then when it was said “as it is written” all the terror and salvation was stamped into the inked word so even now we hear the breath beckon I suppose you are expecting something like a poem here note: 23 of the 112 lines of this poem are not “mine” Close: 7.80 Change: -0.27 %Change: -3.35% Volume: 441,151 Open: 8.00 EPS: -2.83 Shares Out: 142.6 M I write a lot at the bus stop, before getting on poetic value curls up on the curb thinks about the land (under) and what next “discourse comes from a word meaning ‘to arrange’, so engaging in discourse is a kind of [flourish of the hands] interior decorating” Robin Blaser, informal talk at the University of Calgary 1995 poetic value is location location location shelf space and facings, merchandizing and traffic flow, the change you toss in the hat or maybe it was 1994 the brain’s music royalties for year ending December 31, 2007: $31.29 after the reading we can haggle over the value of this book the “value” will be determined by that brief and awkward exchange

Just weeks after Aguas del Tunari, a private company owned by London-based multinational International Water Ltd., took over the city’s water system. poetic value has nothing to do with “yields” If value was something it might be uncertain: market price equivalent of human need, the fluctuating idea thought of as being more or less desirable, useful, estimable, important, etc.; worth or, I suppose, intrinsic worth but also principles, standards. In a word, meaning, art, relative lightness or darkness, the relative duration of a note, proportioned effect, this poem’s rhythms, etc.; a symbol stands so we can be strong, stronger. under written by an under man this particular line written on a day when nothing particular comes to mind, stands There are several factors contributing to the improved economy in Prince George. While the mountain pine beetle has devastated forests in Northern B.C., it has meant a significant increase in the amount of timber harvesting activity and the creation of new secondary manufacturing opportunities utilizing the denim pine.

many readers will be disappointed with poetry’s 4th quarter returns
Indices: Third Quarter (The Bay Street Buyout) the sequence is the sorting of order, like come up with the sentence to not the same but real codeswitching: a poetics hinged between one discourse / and another (see “poetry futures”) what irony? like the poem’s axle two signs of the new order: a foucaultian porn site and the vampire ideologies on daytime t.v. dude, that’s a random state apparatus you got there Ken reads the webpage with a keen adze and thinks of steelhead wakes poetic value is an asterisk noting the controversy damn, my transcendental signifier is stuck in traffic standing here / nohghuni boduz’eh
the compassionate conservative the Budde effect interrupts the pastel, ups the beta-carotene, stops so you wonder why tuna DNA spliced into the genetically modified voter since the crash, corporate culture has returned the christian values that got them there once upon a time time a once time upon a time once upon a once and so on “and which codes did you wish me to switch?” they all replied lustfully oolichan grease the superstructure ah, like the oh when confusion mercifully returns the 2010 Winter Olympics is a site—up north we recognize a land management issue when we see one at the all-candidates forum, the federal front-runners disagreed on the efficacy of language poetry when torque is lost, the scree hits the fan the squirrel tore through An Inconvenient Truth like there was no tomorrow when reading this, part of the interpretive strategy might be considering how much energy it took to make (see ‘consumptive theory’ and ‘planets for poems consortium’)
the railswitch swings the line, the line over to meet, meets an alternative switch, switches the line poetic value is in the fancy icons you can download and cycle to impress your friends yes, these are just parlour tricks, turns of phrases, a kind of gamesmanship, a sleight of hand writing what irony? the same, just performed in a different dialect a tumor-like form the object the subject smacked syntactically if the narrative does not ‘flow’, if the images do not ‘cohere’, if the speaker is not ‘stable’, if the structure is not ‘structural’, then learning is the poem’s to-be-looked-at-ness is the traditional feminine; its outward gaze is the traditional masculine; real poetry flips on a multilayered veil, closes both the eyes, thinks the sound of the written word a trick of neoconservative opportunism the sound of the written repetition is is an illusion Once again, at a poetry reading, we find that we have both an opposition and a unity. We have an opposition because the relative use value form and the equivalent exchange form are exactly the opposite of each other and form two opposed, contradictory poles. We have unity because each pole is a partial
expression of the simple form of exchange-value as a whole. Together they are "mutually dependent and inseparable" but, ultimately, paradoxical. once once was a war word gives the company the flexibility. took over the city’s water system Bernstein: “What began as a subprime poetry problem on essentially unregulated poetry websites has spread to other, more stable, literary magazines and presses and contributed to excess poetry inventories that have pushed down the value of responsible poems.” poetry is not a taking up of arms; poetry is next to nothing; I would die of poetry pv = x(u + a(m)/y) the value in wondering at the nature of value inquiring into the symbolic dildo I strap on every day While no one will argue that 32 offsuit is somehow a "better" hand than 32 suited, what we can easily see is that people play the "better" hand worse—and thus make the expectation of the better hand to be worse than the worse hand. poetic value is a goose in love “Every form of aesthetic must necessarily choose between what is worth preserving and what should be discarded, and what should not even be considered.”
This is an indication that workplace (so, a kind of feeling of belonging) was the mobilizing force behind the revolt: a combination of solidarities based on craft loyalties and the engagement of craft union leaders and unemployed workers in citywide institutions. poetic value is paradoxia as placebo—an ‘and’ for an ‘or’ canceling my subscription to the Canadian Journal of Disjunction Weekly poetic value is knowing that if my kids can read this, they can read the signs that might try to rape them verbal, dramatic, or cosmic—either way we are doomed the Belford effect is to recognize the colonial stage of development in each text and write in old-growth gnarls and unusable neural paths something to give, something, this, to give you, a gift, to you, you a water-rivulet-like form poetic value is codeswitching in the middle of mass and passing gas station scratch-and-win displays with mixed nimble symbolism erratically arrayed not anarchy, not eloquent, not apologetic, not successful, not slick, not pompous, not manipulative, not opportunistic, not realistic, not fatherless, not gregarious, not manageable, not straight, not cursed, not easy, not noticeable, not nice, not mean, not oppositional, not negated, not forgotten, not letting go ah, just hand over the cash
