ciò è un'esposizione nella traduzione
More than just words and language, translation is time and movement-what we do in the space between what occurs and what is described. It is a mathematical function, a state of being, a genetic process, a message.

Mark Temelko recently moved to Chicago from Anchorage Alaska, where he wrote poems and helped edit a project called BroadsidedPress.org. Of course he also did other stuff in Alaska, but aside from the pond hockey in April, it's all pretty foggy. He's a dumbass when it comes to submitting work for publication, but he's had a poem or two in the zine 6 by 5 and his prose in The Greenwood Encyclopedia of American Poetry and the Anchorage Daily News.
