Poetry. In ESP: ACCUMULATION SONNETS, we "listen in" to hear language that usually passes through. MillAr asks: if you throw out the nets, what will be caught? What will be missed? What will be miss-represented? And then, as time passes, what shall we do with these linear fragments of time that interleave their lyric eye among the wreckage of their own attention? Read them, of course. This sequence of 15-line sonnets documents time in the way that Spicer spoke of the serial poem: you have to let the poems lead the way or you'll just wind up lost in the woods.

Autorenporträt
Jay MillAr is a Toronto poet, editor, publisher, teacher, and virtual bookseller. He is the author of False Maps for Other Creatures (2005), Mycological Studies (2002), and The Ghosts of Jay MillAr (2000). His most recent collection is the small blue (2007). In 2006 he published Double Helix, a collaborative novel written with Stephen Cain. Millar is the shadowy figure behind BookThug, an independent publishing house dedicated to cutting edge work by well-known and emerging North American writers, as well as Apollinaire's Bookshoppe, a virtual bookstore that specializes in the books that no one wants to buy. A long-time fixture of the Toronto writing and publishing scene, Jay has participated in such diverse projects as the UNBC/Via Rail Poetry Train, The Scream in High Park, Test Readings Series and Influency: A Poetry Salon. He is also the co-editor (with Mark Truscott) of BafterC, a small magazine of contemporary writing. Currently Jay teaches creative writing at George Brown College. Singled out in the introduction of The New Canon as a 'young firebrand' (which he reads as 'troublemaker') working against what some hold dear to poetic tradition, Jay is one of Canada's voices of authority and risk on innovative, experimental, contemporary poetry
