Remove A Concept vol 04

volume 4 of a projected 16 volumes, written at a local Hartford CT cafe in the late 1980s. Jim Leftwich writes of RAC -- 'thinking in this text, what if soon becomes as if, and if, one by one, concepts proposed are removed as other concepts emerge, then as if becomes is, concept yields to process, being yields to becoming, and one is no longer thinking, or at least not thinking of concepts, one is in the process, no longer reading for content, or at least not for concepts as content, nor is one engaged in a process of reading as writing, one is rather reading as a process of following poetry as it unfolds, as if a poem might be about the time spent writing or reading it, as is the case with this poem, and perhaps with all other poems, once the concepts are removed."
