Poetry. This poem can be described as non-linear but this non-linearity is not created by any technological innovation (hyper-text, etc.). Through the reader's personal allusions and independent of technology, the poet has used spontaneity to convey the complexity of experience by scrutinizing the fibers of the immediate. That is, since everything in the poem occurs in the present it requires the reader to be tense, to construct and dis-assemble complex mental connections. The whole poem's syntagem will never settle in so-called perception alone, allowing for a never-ending mental activity in its every evolution.

Poetry. One important realization SONIC MODEL urges is that sound itself is the fundament of our lives. The roar through a subway wind tunnel is not unlike the roar of the beach. To be alive everywhere is a commitment implied in all his work -- Burt Kimmelman. Tod Thilleman is the publisher of Spuyten Duyvil. Among the many titles by him available from SPD are THE CORYBANTES, BLANK VERSE, and THE NEW FREQUENCY.
