dc.descriptionTHE UTTERANCE ABOVE THE STUTTERen_US
dc.descriptionSteve Sleboda is a poet who faces words as if they were strangers. In every poem he is an Adam without a garden or any pre-existing order. He is a man bereft of a meaningful lan­guage, and yet he is compelled to name the things of the world. He must take his scanty inheritance, an empty language, and renovate until meaning is born. He must overcome, rearrange, displace until words once more have significance.
dc.descriptionHe has chosen the heroic and strenuous path to make the words vehicles of truth, the cosmic and inner truth of poetry, and not the more easy and happy one of being a fashionable entertainer and writing about the illusory. He eschews what is readily recognized and takes dangerous risks. Sleboda has sensed that the old language must be destroyed if words are to have genuine meaning and if communication is to be restored
dc.descriptionSleboda's language might seem obscure to those who be­lieve what they hear, but once they can step outside of their illusions and ego-imprisonment, Sleboda's language becomes crystal-clear.
