Overview

For war Correct and normal posture is: Scoliotic spine fixed in alignment with adopted language Shoulders slouching under symbolic statistics Head forward neck perfect for pain Not standing up against the costs Sitting down like a desk worker fostering the process Virtue sleeping Its fire cliparted Straddling the boundaries between human creativity and AI, between sense and nonsense, between text and pictures, Making Sense From Nonsense is a unique book of experimental poetry crafted from words generated by Google's algorithm, and illustrated with full-colour AI art. Powerful poems and illustrations are rife with meaning, whether that's a meaning plucked from the reader's mind or from the poet's. Divided into four sections, poems have a wide variety of styles. The landscapes they describe range from the gothic/fantasy splendour of ""The Magical"" (""A Medieval song streams from the crypt/Like a curtain of night fog/ Tracking dew upon the spider webs"") to an often absurd present in ""Reality"" (""Sweet Myrtle lays them down wisely/Her crispy potato chip collection""). In ""The Absurd Reality of Violence,"" poems address wartime, the migrant crisis, and much more besides. As the author notes in the introduction, ""the best aspect of this collection of poems is that you need to figure out for yourself where the Nonsense stops, and the truth begins.""
