Many of the poetry blogs I read are engaged in lengthy theoretical dialogues that leave my head spinning with questions that go to the very assumptions that underpin the conversations. Like, "what is the avant-garde, anyway? Is it like obscenity--you know it when you see it?" Can anyone suggest some texts that might help me through this? I'm not starting totally froms scratch here, but I'll admit that I've eschewed theory about poems in favor of reading poems.
