Bolinas, California: Angel Hair Books. Very Good-. 1970. Limited Edition. Softcover. Wraps toned and soiled, as so many are with this edition. Some toned offsetting from an adjacent book. A bit of wave to the head edge of the front.; Thirty-five minimalist, idiosyncratic, freely-constructed poems of experimental technique. Most are terse, some are brief prose poetry, all are non-rhyming, and all challenge the reader to parse and interpret them as poems. An example: "Her strict eye / her lovely voice." Another example titled (for Jim Dine): most common simple / address words everything / in one clear call to me." Robert Creeley (1926-2005) published over 60 books of poetry. These poems were completed July 14, 1969, and published while he was an instructor at State University of New York at Buffalo.
