MAKING IT 142 pages, 2023

​

Here are the pages of this '68 unpublished poetry "book" reproduced best I can in color. It is a one-only-book I made from work that year, and it was in a box attacked by bookworms (I’d left the 1960's folders in a box on a North room floor). I fastidiously cut out insect damage of  page edges that were on the bottom of the box where the worst harm was, and repaired pages by extending them out to where their edge should be. In doing this I found I greatly valued this 1968 creative work. 

The original is letter size, 3 hole bound 
with leather thongs.

​

Full original text with embellishments. I include event poems MAKING IT and THE FOOL including procedure for performance, properties and contents. so that all my work from that year can be seen together. lg
