| Summary: | In Topicsparrow we are confronted head-on with ex perimental poetry. It is different from traditional princi ples commonly applied to poetry and therefore has to be looked upon and analyzed with different standards. It seems that M. L. Patterson denudes her poetry of conscious mental control, allowing the subconscious the freedom to express itself. Momentary impressions seem to be important, which apparently do not have any connection with each other. "Grasshopperseye/sun/this/is/me/ morning cloud surprise I what here." It is reminiscent of the stream-of-consciousness techniq ue where one impression gives birth to another, in a kind of associative succession. |
