The Holy Grail
Jack Spicer
“The Holy Grail” was originally published 50
years ago by White Rabbit Press. It is composed of seven sections, each
containing seven poems. Changing narrators, shifting time periods, the
author’s use of jokes and lapsus linguae and folk songs, all conspire to
create what Spicer called “an uncomfortable music.”
His friend Robin Blaser said it was more like a “cubist painting where you can’t get through the fucking frame.”
