What would I like to teach?
Virtues to teach children according to Natalia Ginzburg. Do you think about these same things or any other aspects?
Occupation
Yestderday while talking about doctors, I recalled a word called compounder. Now I cannot recall or simply dont know how a nurse is different from a compounder. By word, a Compounder would have to mix some medicines.
From a binding word like this we move onto its another meaning of a keep-out. Compound wall.
Like Robert Frost wonders in
Mending wall,
Before I built a wall I'd ask to know
What I was walling in or walling out
But compund itself, while adding some things into the mix, its leaving out all the other things. Cliques
While at it, I was thinking of another occupation word, Peon.
They might have been done away with in the digital world.
From A widows story by Joyce Carol Oates, I expected something like the reflection in Mark Doty's Heavens coast.
Have you come across a book where you like all the writing and stop reading it cause you have made up your mind that you are going to have the book with you as long as the material world will allow and thus stall the reading. Is this what happens in relations too?
In some way, reading is not just about the moment of what has been published but about all the moments that happen to and make the writer. Mark Doty's blog lets me do just that. And soon I will get to the book too.

Ink filler
In the recent years
filler is a cell
you put on the chip
filler is a thing
to maintain
the continuities of time or space
I forget the soft plastic
capillary that puts the blood
into the pen
Pipette
Burette

Poet hunt
I have started reading Bob Hicok's poetry book Words for empty and words for full.
His interview at Smartish Pace introduced me to more poets - Maureen Seaton. Tess Gallagher. Artaud. Bill Knott. Rodney Jones. Frank O'Hara. Ai. Szymborska. Amy Gerstler
Gustaf Sobin - lyric development of poem
C K williams - long line
Kelli Russell Agodon - how influenced by Olena Kalytiak Davis, Naomi Shihab Nye, Aimee Nezhukumatathil, Martha Silano, Susan Rich
William Bronk
From Knotts interview to Carol Ann Duffy

Both genres
I am reading The Art of Nonfiction by Ayn Rand. I see that she has also written The art of fiction.
Yesterday I started reading Now write! Nonfiction. In the introduction, there is a mention of Now write fiction by the same author.
As of now, they seem like two opposite points. May be the state of righting both is the final Nirvana state of writerhood.

Scurrying lizards
Lizards of southwest
On the hike, I found 3 lizards and I was reminded of a rare lizard we saw as kids. It was called ' pala binde' in Telugu. The words translate to milk pitcher. It looked cream light in color. It didnt have cringe looks like the other lizards.
The Short horned lizards have a wider center breaking our lizard narrow expectations.
Field
Once in a while, funny titles come up.
The Field guide to fields
The spelling of field is unsoothing compared to its meaning.
