#warpoetry The origins of the visual poem RAGE are told through checking out the Oxford Brookes veterans' poetry workshop which I attended 2 years ago today. A true war poem doesn't apologize. If you would like information on the entire anthology and all the poetry inside, please click the links provided. CONCLUSION: Link to Workshops: Veterans' Poetry Workshops Link to podcast with Niall Munro: Interview with Maggs Vibo. Link to BFBS radio story: How Poetry Is Helping Explore What It Is Really Like To Be A Veteran. Link to anthology: 'My teeth don't chew on shrapnel': an anthology of poetry by military veterans. I built from the letter R the peak of a volcano and the letters spelling AGE to flesh out the crater. The pressure builds and the lava spews out using colored pencils in various shades of black, brown, red to carve into the paper the word rage in all caps and a spewing ash cloud made from torn paper burned around the edges. #art #poetry #painting #darklore #walkabouts #museums #vispo #myths #literature #music #legends #dance #folklore #storytelling #maggsvibo #humanities #fairytales #blog #repository #talltales #gothichorror #festivals #artexhibitions #books #galleries #augmentedreality #exploration #AI #robots

DEAR READER
Welcome to my literature, music, and visual poetry project. My blog represents a method for deciphering the fragments left behind in the Anthropocene. Writers use ashes as a metaphorical device in storytelling. Have you ever wondered about the symbolism of ashes? Archaeological fragments of tablet, papyrus, bone, scroll, and pottery are recognizable the world over. In our digital era, however, our lost folkloric works disintegrate into dust. In this sense, I consume the silver flakes and use my he{art] as a vessel to rise from dystopic wastelands. I share lore through the oral tradition. Ashes to Ashes we continue on ∞ to infinity ∞ We are ash. We are stories. We are star dust. We are eternal.
