Creating this graphical poem I employ and visually reflect elements of an alphabetic textual expansion method practiced by Jackson Mac Low and others. The process further involves remediating, or transcreating across media, as work created for digital projection now becomes a book. This authorial distortion encodes commentary through underlining(s) and marginalia, as something unexpected becomes of a pre-existing text as it migrates across and between expressive frontiers. Readers receive two (or more) poems in one: the appropriated, altered visual poem(s), as well as a sub-textual narrative that accumulates as a result of alphabetic arrangement: words are potentially embedded, letter-by-letter through the first letters in each of the underlined words.
