Great Regulars: When "Four stills from 'The Poet' (a film) for Tom Raworth"

was printed in the TLS, it appeared alongside the works of concrete and beat poets, including Ian Hamilton Finlay's "Large Mural Poem", Michael Horovitz's "Polyglottal Stop" and an untitled piece by Dom Sylvester Houédard. The notes of bathos and satire in [Anselm] Hollo's verse echo the mock-heroic poetry of the eighteenth century; he uses numbered stanzas (a pastiche of cantos, film stills and storyboard technique).
