Alec Soth’s “Friday Poem” today was an intriguing one titled “Table of Contents for an Imaginary Book” by the poet Elaine Equi. It spoke to me in a lot of ways, but I found it particularly interesting to think about the poem as a designer. Soth has a few more links to Elaine Equi’s work online, but I also really enjoyed these poems about “objects,” or maybe the ideas or descriptions of objects. Equi’s poem about “Wittgenstein’s Colors” seems to catalog some of the lovely observations Wittgenstein made at the end of his life. More about Equi in this week’s NYT Book Review.
