chalk editions info (from 2009) (the links are still live!)
for experimental poetry – our first twenty titles.
chalk editions – usually poetry attempts to conquer time and insert an immortality-factor to its texts – this possibility has reverted against itself recently – the physical book is a dinosaur – we, at chalk editions, don’t like this event, however, it is the reality of a now, almost into the second decade of the 21st decade – hardcopy books are expensive to produce and purchase, soon, hardcopy books will be the present tense for either the rich elite, or collectors – digital paper and inkare improving as we speak, the quality of reading on a computer screen [such as amazon’s kindle device] is improving – screen technology [for computers] is improving as well
we are poets: we come and go with the wind. free.
these are some of the ideas behind our new venture – the texts are free of charge – if you wish, download a few – make print-outs – as a kindness to the authors and publisher, please mention our site and the author’s copyright.
