Eileen Myles' new website with lots of great stuff.

…has an entry in her blog for the Poetry Foundation called “Yoga for Losers,” including this – “I mean if you’re using something everybody already knows (Language, Conceptual) and putting things in it that everybody already does then I think it’s a store, not a school. Maybe even a chain. It contributes to the history of branding not aesthetics” – how great! – plus this about her new book titled “The Importance of Being Iceland” which I had the pleasure of reading this fall while in residence together at MacDowell Colony – “…its one of the most lesbian books of art writing that doesn’t call itself that…..I’m continually (since I wrote the pieces separately) announcing my lesbianity in individual pieces because it was always an opportunity in public to stick that word in the unlikely place in the world when I’m writing an art review or a personal column or an essay. I kept seizing this opportunity to out myself and now I have the problem of putting these pieces together and wondering if I’ve said the word lesbian thirty-eight times or two hundred and fifty times or ninety-seven” – yes!
