Autorenporträt
Tom Fallon subtitled his first book "Selected Poems, Half-poems and Non-Poems" in 1978 clearly establishing his direction for exploring poetry and literary form rather than following inherited forms. How to write, has been his primary question, opening up his mind to creation. Fallon's subsequent works, "Pregnant Man 1" in Red Dust 3, The Man on the Moon, and NOW, subtitled "Poetry and Antipoetry," continued his experiment and innovation with form to the point that he posited a new literary term, charteng, after discovering Marianne Moore's statement in an interview with Donald Hall for the Paris Review, "What I write, as I have said before, is only called poetry because there is no other category in which to put it." This term relates to the new categories in the arts such as collage, environments, etc. His writing has been affected by the art revolution of the early 20th Century, modern jazz, experimental classical music, Off-Off Broadway theater in NYC and modern American writers such as Marianne Moore, William Carlos Williams, Ezra Pound, Charles Olson, Dick Higgins, Bern Porter and others.
