Plot: A Genre Study

In the first or second row of this theater, I sit captive with the audience, in a full house. The curtains are drawn; the show, soon to begin. In the interim, as I strum my duocello, the audience of albino ants responds with enthusiasm. I happen to note the thick flat pick with which I have been playing. When was it I made a pick like that before? Prose poetry is sometimes thought of as a short form, limited in extent to no more than a page or two. In Wain Ewings Plot, an effort has been made to expand the reach of the prose poem by bridging the written and the visual. Based on a dream journal, this is a creative, experimental novella featuring prose poetry and images. Segments portray the power of simple observations that give meaning to the mundane. Sometimes the words read almost like a stream of consciousness. Tone ranges from literary to absurd, surreal to visionary. Ewings storytelling is imaginative and fresh, not afraid of challenging literary convention. His is a creative journey, and you are invited to join.
