Many friends are doing various things to remember David Chirot and gather his work, which is widely dispersed.
I am gathering, editing (when needed), all David's work he contributed to Asemic Front. I'll be posting these as I get them done for those who might want to see or save David's work.
This is interesting because Jerome Rothenberg is a poet of note who is one of the few avant poets who was linked to the old Fluxus. Jerome championed David's work. I think JR was someone who understood the significance of what David was doing.
So anyway - Thank You Jerome Rothenberg, you champion of the New Poetry, teller of Tales of Beatnik Glory - I salute you Brother!
