O dear Poet!
News, sad, sadder, saddest — Ide was one of a kind, original street poet, somehow institutionalizes with Ginsberg/Waldman/Sanders the incredible schule fuir dictung (Vienna school for poetry) as his own poetry becomes his Body, a gestural/sound letter by letter approach to Full Body Poetics, like nobody else. His “authorized Flowplayer” website is a marvel. O dear Poet!
This Poem Is One Letter
Praise Poem Ide Hintze now sing love
It is the letter IT{ide} which is eye 2
It is Ide my soul my pal my imp
Limp lamp lime times q plus x and lump x
He leaps on leprechaun
Stings bees backs
All balm honey all vinegar bend
O! olde schlag Vienna resolved: solve
It is on the River Tear of O
And it flows slow n’er stops v-v-v-v-v
Tear wilt palaver go, yellowing skin voice
And walking across the street is now a poem
& there is Celtic graffiti from The Way Back Then
Crossing J of make that a Red J and now a bounced
Swoosh of remembrance swimming cap keep z-z-z-nnnnn(l)
Water the ears who hears coffee? all dichter
Perhaps human speech is an animal talk body for brain (?) qqqq,qqq,qq,q
And when the mind enters the hat the bird is quite the proud song gfgfgf
Many more syllables alternate ll and LL depending/note (Welsh lateral “L”)
Where absence lowers flower deeper growing e’er deeper
Roots ah! tendrils reaching up so wettening wet
As blossom push deeperning your lovers’ face completely oszkw
Occupy sex of river automatic payments unforseeable y-y
As the organ gets ground - where the monkey at? pcdhf
Cross legs alphaalpha umlaut t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t-t sucher traum
And now first nut boing it’s a body of poitreeeee sails (nailzzzzzz)
Far criss canal and deposits the whole gesprachen I’m-a talking
Not what is obvious core burp banality slurp
Goodness the dance dervish washes chuckle lilt
Waxes the spot where Ide wheels round I am in it
Ide wheel Ide Lala Ide instrumental break Ide disincorporate
IdeIdeIdeIdeIdeIdeIde what’s the ide A?
