I think we will always have the impulse towards visual poetry with us, and I wouldnt agree with Bly that its a bad thing. It depends on the ability of the individual poet to do it well, and to make a shape which is interesting enough to hold your attention. – James Laughlin

We dont attempt to have any theme for a number of the anthology, or to have any particular sequence. We just put in things that we like, and then we try to alternate the prose and the poetry. – James Laughlin
