It is best $30! No other individuals do I pay for in a single chunk at this point. It is a twitch thing for me, but that’s ok! You are varied and always interesting and I appreciate this. Plus Star Trek!

I’m really glad Public Notice publishes you. They do excellent work and I think increasingly so. You fit in well to that. No one documents Trump more directly and rigorously than Aaron. It has to be tough and diligent work, to bathe in it like he does. It all goes together.

That’s a lot of un words. Unbottomed gave me pause.

I have to confess that I’m not sure how to approach the Dada poems. If there’s a trick into them, I’d love to know.

Thank you for your work!

The list poems aren't exactly dada...but, fwiw, I enjoy them as insights into the original text, as a kind of joke (it's just funny that people do that), as a kind of abstract exercise in language (what are all the words that begin with "un"?), as a kind of puzzle...

It's related to conceptual art practices. I wrote about it a little here: https://newhumanist.org.uk/articles/6125/robotic-poetry

the shorter poem is a sound poetry thing; It's just kind of fun to read/listen to.
