Foundation Pit: October 2006
http://foundationpit.blogspot.com/2006_10_01_archive.html
My style is like bad musical composition. -Ludwig Wittgenstein. Monday, October 23, 2006. It is a curious fact that my own poetry will see print in Russia, and possibly Argentina, before it will in America. Of course, the reasons for this are obvious - I haven't submitted anything in the states. When asked why I don't submit I kind of mumble around the question. I think the question "Does anyone need pay for my writing? Has something to do with it. Here is a novel about the workshop:. I feel this image r...

My style is like bad musical composition. -Ludwig Wittgenstein. Wednesday, May 31, 2006. My Cousin Mayakovsky's Drainpipe. Thundering the world with the might of my voice, I go by - handsome,twenty-two-year-old.Gentle ones! You lay your love on a violin. The crude lay their love on a drum. but you can't, like me, turn inside out entirely,and nothing but human lips become! And here is the haunted drain pipe in which I found these words:. O, medical equipment for blood purification. You have froze or rusted.

My style is like bad musical composition. -Ludwig Wittgenstein. Friday, July 28, 2006. Two shoes and bad champagne. Posted by Peter Golub at 2:07 AM. Tuesday, July 18, 2006. There is another daughter out there. Who dances in and out of rooms. I'd like to ride her like a woman. She'd like to ride me like a fan. The match is over. But we still linger on. Remembering bad quotes from songs and movies. For heavens sake when will your mind. Left in the refrigerator. There is a pigeon in my belly. I have no arms.

Foundation Pit: June 2006
http://foundationpit.blogspot.com/2006_06_01_archive.html
My style is like bad musical composition. -Ludwig Wittgenstein. Tuesday, June 20, 2006. This is one of the golden knobs placed by the soviets on the pawnbroker's staircase to impress foreigners. One old woman forgives another. This is raskolnikov's apartment, presented sideways for dramatic effect. At the moment i am at a friend's apartment. It is old with high ceilings and loud pipes. I was chosen to be one of the three primary critics at the workshop tomorrow. But i have no idea what i am going to say.

My style is like bad musical composition. -Ludwig Wittgenstein. Sunday, April 22, 2007. It has Been A Great While. I've neglected this thing because of all the stuff I've been failing to accomplish, but now that the semester is coming to a close I feel that I might as well tie myself to a palm tree and just wait for the wave to hit. Some more translations have been accepted. Hampshire Archive. Personalia. Is coming out in the first issue of St. Petersburg Review. Absinthe: New European Writing. The volca...

Foundation Pit: December 2006

My style is like bad musical composition. -Ludwig Wittgenstein. Monday, December 11, 2006. Posted by Peter Golub at 11:22 PM. Tuesday, December 05, 2006. A woman came to me. But I did not want to dance. And walked across the street to a small bar in the basement of an old brick building. Where the arches reminded me of cavalry. Whatever happened to the cavalry. What units did they turn into. An old man plays the piano. Someday he’ll come along. The man I love. We write back and forth. The boys in the park.

Foundation Pit: January 2007
http://foundationpit.blogspot.com/2007_01_01_archive.html
My style is like bad musical composition. -Ludwig Wittgenstein. Sunday, January 28, 2007. As I wrote in my previous post this blog will focus on my work in young Russian poetry. One of the things I've been working on is figuring out who to translate, which means developing some criteria. This, of course, raises the question of criteria in general. What counts as what, and why? That she listened to last night. She writes me the following:. Why was this sound so piercing? It was as if from the adjacent roo...

Foundation Pit: August 2006
http://foundationpit.blogspot.com/2006_08_01_archive.html
My style is like bad musical composition. -Ludwig Wittgenstein. Wednesday, August 30, 2006. When i come back i tell myself that i must work. That there is quite a lot to be done. But then i see that no one is looking. And so like a sulky 12 year old. I take my toy soldiers and walk back home. On the way i see a blind dog lead a blind girl around a post. I see two men gesticulating to one another about sex. I see and i see and i see. An article about dolphin homosexuality. Posted by Peter Golub at 2:39 PM.

So as of now I am putting together translations of Polina Barskova, Mariana Geide, Victor Ivaniv, Natalya Kluchareva, and Tanya Moseeva. Here is a poem by Barskova. This is a working draft. I plan to work on this poem, and post the evolution. Who knows maybe I will change it completely. Maybe I will leave it as is. Saturday morning. Schubert. Fanny torments the slipper. И смотрю на...
