Synopsis

Getting back to the theme of writing from the outside, I published this in the American Poetry Review in 01/01/2004, " I've come to realize that I much prefer to live on the periphery of the English language, so that I can steer clear of the tyranny of its suffocating center. In this sense, I am a quintessential American. A Unapoet, I like to homestead just beyond the long reach of Washington [... ] Hearing the rapid syllables of a foreign language, a bigot is infuriated because he's reduced to the status of an infant. Poets, on the other hand, should welcome all opportunities to become disoriented. To not know what's happening forces one to become more attentive and to fill in the blanks. Hence, poetry." (Linh Dinh, from the Interview with Tahseen Alkhateeb)
