hits the nail on the head... "It's actually a terrible sacrifice the art world demands of poets, the virgins thown into the volcano, so that the shiny painting and sculpture of their time will have its equivalent in print, sort of. The poets will have backed off from the spikiness of their perceptions for the glory of instantly appearing in print at all, and for the glamour of being associated...

His kind of queerness...

Review: The Importance of Being Iceland by Eileen Myles
Flavorwire (Free subscription) | 10/14/2009
Eileen Myles exists somewhere outside of neat binaries. We know her as a legendary queer poet and novelist, a respected professor, and a one-time presidential candidate. In this book, she shows us yet another side of herself — that of art critic and travel journalist.

I'd expected to be reading tonight with the wonderfully live-wire Eileen Myles in Cambridge, and I was looking forward to it. The Carpenter Center for the Visual Arts has mounted a show called "ACT UP New York," centering on posters and other activist art from the crisis years of the epidemic. I'd planned to read poems by Tim Dlugos, James Merrill and the late Rynn Williams,...

Yay! I love her. I know. I know. File under FACEBOOK STARFUCKER DEPT. I remember watching her on HBO years ago and thinking "Marcel Duchamp or Bruce Nauman ain't got shit on this woman." And I love the Eileen Myles poem in which she appears. Doing what? I think making an ink impression of her breasts so Eileen and a friend had cab fare to get home or something. That's...
