RZ: I have learned something and felt truly honored by and grateful for each audience and every venue. I am not sure what is causal, correlative or coincidental, but the venues that have been the most transformative for me were the ones in which I spent the most time (as opposed to a quick trip in and out) and the places where I also gave a poetry reading and met a lot of people or spent a lot of time with a few people. Again, whenever the lectures felt like conversations rather than performances was gratifying and wonderful.
Each page of Come In Alone features a different poem infinitely looping around the page, with each word beginning and ending beside another, creating space and an invitation for the reader to engage.
The poet CA Conrad is the (self-described) son of white trash asphyxiation. A poet with an unapologetic voice and jolting imagination, he is the author of seven books; the latest is titled ECODEVIANCE: (Soma)tics for the Future Wilderness (Wave Books, 2014).
The filmmakers said they had seen me perform in New York and bought my books and wanted to make a documentary about my life as a poet. Initially, it did not seem real to me as though I had dreamed the whole thing up.
Earth was murdered in 1998 just before the Spring Equinox. On the phone a few days before his death he was happy and wanted phone sex, which I managed to do at work in the basement among cardboard boxes and packing peanuts. After his death I dreamed about that last phone call over and over and each time I hung up the dream phone smiling, thinking I am going to see him in person soon. I loved this man and could taste him and smell him in dreams, and these dreams were always the hardest to wake from. At least with the nightmares I could wake in a panic of sweat to calm myself down, but waking from one of these happy phone sex dreams only made me want to go back to sleep, and I usually did.
The film has just been completed, so the trailer is what is available at the moment, but stay tuned is all I can say. I am grateful, nervous and excited, not just about the film but also the selected poems of John Wieners being published. I had the great honor of co-editing this brilliant book of queer poems with Joshua Beckman and Robbie Dewhurst. I loved working with these friends of mine, working hard to show the world the true genius of a fairy godmother poet out of Black Mountain and Boston and America and The World. The book is titled Supplication: New and Selected Poems. I cannot wait for you to read it, and everyone reading this interview to read it.
