A-Politico Absurdia

A few days ago, I stopped by the Jack Kerouac School of Disembodied Poetics in Boulder, Colorado. The campus was pretty quiet and at first look, everything was a little too typical of a college campus. 

But then tiny blips of magic began to pop out to me: a stencil of Allen Ginsburg spray painted on the library drop off box, a sculpture of Kali hiding on the windowsill of the administration building, a geodesic dome greenhouse, a tattered poem about oneness with environment hanging from a willow tree. The students left offerings to the spirits and fairies of the Colorado wilderness. Their administration seemingly encourages this.

Under a giant sycamore, I found this little fairy altar. A small box with a poem about Hologram Reality on its roof, sheltering a little metallic angel and a giant quartz crystal. It felt more than appropriate to leave a copy of A-Politco Absurdia behind in this tiny fairy home for someone else to find.

A-Politico Absurdia is a manifesto written by Jozef Maguire and myself about the coming dream punk rêvelution of consciousness. It was released earlier this year, and took the last 5 years to assemble into its current dream-inspiring form.

New Release: Letters To Aunt Lucy by Stephanie B.

image

The last month was an extremely busy and productive one. Along with putting together my own collection of haikus, I worked to publish a new chapbook by Philly writer, Stephanie B. It’s very exciting to have a new author join us on A Freedom Books.

Letters To Aunt Lucy is “a letter and poetry exchange between a letter-writer and the Australopithecus Lucy. It’s an exploration of deep ancestral memory, our biology, and the many forms of love we share with ourselves, each other, all the creatures, and this great big planet.”

Each copy is hand-folded and handbound with my tender hands during many a tea ceremony at The Holy Underground in Baltimore. You can grab a copy from the writer, or preview some of the writing on her website here: http://letterstoauntlucy.tumblr.com
