A Prisoner of the Page

A Prisoner of the Page

Michael Hofmeister

Independently Published
2019
nidottu
A Prisoner of the Page opens with the narrator inviting the reader to help it solve a mystery - the mystery being whether the narrator exists or is merely a figment of the reader's imagination. Or - put another way - whether the narrator is a prisoner of the page or a free actor. And thus begins a short conversation between the two to decipher just that. From one angle - the book is a psychological examination of the internal workings of the human mind - and from another angle - a conversational piece between a reader and a narrator. In the end - however - A Prisoner of the Page is a celebration of the human mind in all its complexity and beauty and a celebration of the relationship between the reader and the narrator.

Using simple language and a free-flowing mixture of rhymed and unrhymed verse, the author visits each title theme (then now later) individually, but appears to emphasize the importance of living 'in the now' while still trying absorb the nutrients of the past so that the recipe for the future is created with care. The book opens with the famous lullaby 'Row Row Row Your Boat' which serves as a perfect opener for the piece because after a series of shorter poems, the book becomes and concludes with a lengthy stream of consciousness narrative written 'in the now'.Then Now Later is one installment in a continuing series of writing exercises the author started which include (as of now) three other works: U, Addition, and a collaborative linking haiku project entitled Linking - which was written mostly via text messaging with a friend (Joseph Eugene Davis). Besides being writing exercises - the author has stated that these projects also function as psychoanalytical tools similar to inkblot or word association tests. Expressed in another way - these exercises have the ability to give voice to the subconscious.

Addition is a short volume of poetry which was, by the author's own admission, an experiment in seeing how long he could write without stopping. To achieve this goal, he employed a form of writing he referred to as 'Wordeling' or 'Now-Writing' - the guidelines for which were simple: keep writing, don't stop, and don't edit during or after the process. When completed, he decided to leave the piece as it was - mistakes and all - to except the imperfections as part of the piece - imperfections that ended up flavoring it in a way that fixing them would have diminished.Addition is one installment in a continuing series of writing exercises the author started which include (as of now) three other works: Then Now Later, U, and a collaborative linking haiku project entitled Linking - which was written mostly via text messaging with a friend (Joseph Eugene Davis).
