i wonder if this is not a different space to the one i was talking about?
the space you describe is a physical space, one that can be read, and is
read, as text. and that in its sounding out aloud, this space is also
sounded(even if it is silence).
this has more to do with craft than interpretation.
i sound(inside my head) everything i write when i am composing, even if i
do it silently, and i try to capture all of those sounds in what i write.
i suppose i write from the perspective that it will be sounded, as olsen et
al did.
but there is other poetry which can be written to be read, i believe.
