EnglishItem is written in English ResearchPoetry for PerformancePART ONEOne way to produce raw, self-scripted written material is to provide access to a variety of image styles. I do this by physically introducing students to different imaginary “worlds” or “environments”. When working in environments or worlds, it is important first to introduce the idea of “neutral” so students have a place from which to depart and return. Any teacher who has studied yoga, acting, martial arts, meditation, or another discipline that engages this idea can use their own language to introduce the “neutral” body. Call for Submissions: Ekphrastic PoetryWhere do you find inspiration for writing poetry? Our feelings and experiences are often the fuel for poems, but what about drawing inspiration from a painting, a sculpture or a video installation? Welcome Our New Editor, Monique!Dear Readers, Summer is upon us! As we welcome the long days and beautiful weather, I would also like to announce some important changes to the Re:verse editorial team. I have had the great pleasure of assisting editors Stephanie Hallett and Amy Carlberg with this Summer issue and will be taking over as editor beginning in Fall 2010. Lousy Explorers by Laisha Rosnau (Nightwood Editions, 2009) Review by Sophie BlomLaisha Rosnau does not fit the definition of a young poet and it shows. The loudest voice of her latest poetry collection, Lousy Explorers, speaks from a place of experience and motherhood. However, this fact should not deter a younger audience from savouring every rich word that Rosnau writes. Though she speaks from the perspective of adulthood, it is with the eyes of one new to the job. Life As A HoneysuckleLife As A Honeysuckle Once I dreamt of heat so hot neither love nor fire could touch it burns my skin red glistening brown these summer days how I dream they will never go away I only live for 3 months out of the year seasons change and you move on, seasons change light is beautiful how they show off their sun kissed model’s bodies
