World Poetry Presents Doc PenPen, Philippine Visual Poetry!

Visual Poetry

SHOCK ME! SHOCK YOU! That is Doc PenPen’s visual poetry. It burgeons forth as the whole schmear of FoxP2 from nadir to zenith aspects of life aggrandizing with philosophy . A bulwark between bestiality and humanity. A total alleviation and regeneration of humanness. Reasons unabated. Time halts and marks a history in the making of a great man– awarded as ”Father of Philippine Visual Poetry”. Soon, unstoppable, the Final Awarding Ceremony will be in Glendale, California on June 2012.

¿Unique? They say Doc PenPen’s poems are “one of a kind”? The deconstructionists would definitely lay siege to the Machiavellian play of his ” is, Is, IS, ‘s, ITS, its, i!I?¿, ‘ . ” , “:~:” and all his repetitive style. A real transgression. His originality is pure. These may appeal like AGS ( Awful Grammar Syndrome) and egregious to the eyes but in reality, these are broad transcriptions and annotations of hard truth, self, world, and universe where visual phenomena have been integrated. His visual interpretations from spermatozoon to great barrier reef of ideas would untangle the paucity and plethora lifestyle in the society. A premise remain to be questioned. Later, this shall remain unquestioned.

Don’t you want to know what is in his mind? Doc Pen’s visual poems require non-marginalized apprehension. It requires, it carves, it challenges our highest level of human consciousness that had been shaped by our own unique heterogeneous environment and personality—our own distinct world. His poems out-boxed what’s inside the box– penetrates the nephesh state of beingness; At the end —wide range of views about mankind are truly unearthed. One may ask: “But am ‘I’ respected?”.

The anthology of his visual poems cast a wide net over real experiences and his total identity. A valuable talk to carry on. The fifty original and conceptualized crafts provide a view of mysteries—the alchemy of avant-garde. One must not just read it as a verse—one must discover that there is something “new” to “it”?

Nothing is humane but one and who? The artistic pathologist’s fovea and his ”messy explorations” in visual poetry are crenellating to innovation and experimentation that augments genuine discoveries of truths about the realities of human existence. Do our arrogance can be balanced and subdued by truths to make one knees fall into real and true humility? It is not about the famed facet of the artist hands but the gratification through the ”unexpected therapy” for those who thirst and hunger for true, real and compassionate world.

A genre-bending sense of wide-open possibilities though sensed as literature’s dross. The one-man zeitgeist with his bayesian experiments had conquered the metamorphosis of syntax to humane abundance! As expected, this will be subjected to an intriguing interrogations. One would probably say, there is nothing ordinary here. But to one who post a real challenge to reveal the concepts and essence of his poems, I am sure this is what one would say: “he had made ordinary things extraordinary”.

Doc PenPen is not absolutely a Prize-Pulitzer winner visual poet. He is not. Absolutely not. But one thing is sure: his works encompass life and death!

The obliterating distinctions between “purism” and his ”relative truths” are not iconoclastic images and ideas, rather a plot that embraces all—-whatever race, color, status and belief you belong. His visual poems will explicitly and implicitly present concepts of assemblage. The cutting edge of his “healing poems” is the springboard of his innovations— Doc Penpen’s living monument through time.

      DOC. PEN PEN, thru his poems, shares All of the Things which are unspeakable. And to quote RAM DAS: “It is only now…. that we can start to dance into the realms where we look into one another’s eyes and know what is not knowable. We are that things. ” DOC. PEN PEN’s poetry reveals the truth.
