    SKELETON EYE--VISUAL POETRY CLOSE TO THE BONE
    Cover of a new boo I am making, words in English and Russian. Dedicated to my great friend editor, translato and poet, and to two other friends and great poets Dmitri Babenko and Edward Kulemin. (All three are in a visual poetry anthology I curated for the UK site opened.com) also TO THE GREAT NUMBER OF Russian POETS I HAVE BEEN READING SINCE I discovered Mayakovsky at age 15. I hope my friends will join me in this project. I want to especially thank the brilliant essayist and author of ZAUM the Trans-rational poetry of Russian Futurism, Dr, Gerald Janecek and The Visual Language of Russian Poetry. Russian Poetry is like a beloved with whom I live now for decades. I want to say Thank You via this book and I hope my friend to join with me.

    reaction from David on Facebook this morning:

    Thank you so much Ruud! Not only for this fantastic note and guide to sites--but also to your unflagging support of myself and Mail Art/Visual Poetry for decades now. Thank you so much for taking the t ime to put together all this work at IUOMA Often I forget what I have done and feel as though I have contributed nothing, am a hopeless,
    idiot, despairing over the immense chasm between how much I want to contribute, and how very little I in reality have. This listing gives me hope as I keep on working through thick and thin of a chaotic life. Thank you!
    The "hidden ISIS messages--have not yet attempted to unpack together the puzzle pieces sealed inside-torn between their "intelligence value "and their"Family Roadkill" show value in terms of the "Trailar'n'Trashcan" aesthetic . . .
