Tuesday poem #186 : Sean Braune : untitled

lapsed gradient
A turgid pli projects [the]
[its] cenozoic lies, convex
[as] curious plastic equality
            tarry tableaux  :
            try holism, tired
            misery
            numbness ,
               the inferno
[night]

i’m
          voltage



Sean Braune’s theoretical work has been published in Postmodern Culture, Journal of Modern Literature, Canadian Literature, symplokē, and elsewhere. His poetry has appeared in ditch, The Puritan, Rampike, and Poetry is Dead, and elsewhere. For the past three years he has been invited to speak at the graduate level at Yale University on the topic of avant-garde visual poetry. His dissertation focuses on retheorizing the semiotic sign in response to new materialist philosophies. His chapbook the vitamins of an alphabet appeared earlier this year with above/ground press.

the Tuesday poem is curated by rob mclennan
