Marginalia from my copies of Poetry Magazine







One thing I enjoy about Poetry, besides the fact that it consists of poetry, is that the paper is conducive to a type of line, having a good tooth and not slick, and that the white space provided by the format of poems allows for some fun integration of image and text. For me it's practice. Sometimes I find that I do some images that I wish I had done on more artistic paper, higher rag content, more seperable, more presentable. Still I'm content with the volumes, which, when money runs low for purchase of more paper, serves twin functions: material to read and space to draw upon.
