About the Poems


by Nate Pritts

A list of things that contributed to the series [All my poems start]

: my Introduction to Poetry class, Fall 2006: Lora, Blade, Andi & Claire.

: Larry Fagin’s THE LIST POEM.

: Gina Myers sending me Larry Fagin’s THE LIST POEM.

: persistent anxiety that all my poems, if left to their own devices, start the same way.

: my inability to write a “real” list poem / my desire to write a “real” list poem.

: the second floor reading room at the Northwestern State University library where I met my Introduction to Poetry class every Monday & Wednesday. Windows & couches.
