Denise Low spoke at the Poetics Seminar today, about Lance Henson, a Native American Poet. She brought her students from Haskell Indian Nation, which is also in Lawrence, Kansas. The quality of the discussion was extremely high. It turned on the question of negotiating cultural identity, but what made the discussion so compelling was that nobody used a phrase like "negotiating cultural identiy." Henson's poetry is quite striking. It's extremely compressed and allusive. "li po and tu fu have / forgiven nothing / not waking drunk under any moon."
