How to write

Out of body, she’s in a cab on the way to the airport, away from home and husband – going to a poetry workshop in the Jack Kerouac School of Disembodied Poetics. He, R, beside her on the clapped-out cab seat – he, R, will teach but she’s not in his group – she’s chosen Rosmarie Waldrop – she could have chosen R – she did not. She flung out words in hot ugly gushes. How to speak so it wasn’t puke. Why do women always write about personal things, G the poet at the college asked her, agreeing with his friend that the only woman in Canada who could write was Alice Munro though no one could write like V. S. Naipaul, why don’t they write about what’s out there: objective reality?
