SK Kelen, Don Juan Variations

The Don Juan Variations includes 'Original Mix...', the first draft of 'Attitude: Don Juan in the Shopping Mall', being the initial outpouring of words (received and written in the zone) before they were artificed to fit the ottava rima pattern utilised  in its published version. Though many of the words are the same, the draft and the 'final' are quite different poems. The second poem is from a sequel, 'Don Juan in the Underworld'.

S. K. Kelen's Island Earth: New and Selected Poems was recently published by Brandl & Schlesinger.
