Via Charles Bernstein\u2019s and Ron Silliman\u2019s blogs, here are a number of Leslie Scalapino links, from visuals of her book covers to pdf\u2019s of her early work. And before those links, here is the first poem in the first\u00a0 book Leslie published:<\/p>\n

\n
UP THERE\n\nUp there,\nabove my head,\nthe ceiling of my room is\ncream-colored.\n\nJust as the underbelly of a fish\nfits neatly\nto the fish's back,\nthe ceiling is tapered to the walls\nand from\nthere to the floor of my room.\n\nSo it is\nthat keeping an eye\non my fish's\nunder-belly,\nlooking upwards from my bed,\nI an see the ceiling\nas motionless which in reality\nis gliding slowly\nslowly (only inches per year)\ninto a deep atmosphere,\nbrowsing and feeding, feeding and browsing,\nas all fish do.\n\nThe cream-colored ceiling\nof my room\nis never full\nthough it grows fatter\nand fatter.\n<\/pre>\n<\/blockquote>\n
