Sinossi

'Divinations' I call these poems that limit excessive experience in the interest of embodied knowledge. Where no embodied knowledge exists such a limitation is of course pointless or inappropriate. If poetry can be thought of as mediate communication of experienced knowledge then such a divination is a poem that enables immediate communication - or transfer - of embodied knowledge, or body. Divination as a literary tactic presupposes a body of knowledge and a willingness to forego the usual emphasis on experience in favour of mystic or live body.
