Scott McClanahan has been making these video poems and they are fucking awesome. I don’t really know how to describe using any words other than “fucking awesome.”
Scott is one of the few writers who I feel deserves to perform at poetry readings. He makes it intense and makes it real like one of those revivals in tents. Every performance is different. The words feel truer than pretty much any other words getting thrown around on paper or through the air these days.
Here are the second and third videos from this series, which I hope is ongoing.
And here’s an awesome interview with Scott.
