KU 'Broadside' Sheet Scores Coup With Exclusive Creeley Poem
"Broadside Poems," an unofficial, unsponsored, independent, nonprofit, occasional poetry sheet, has scored an exclusive.
The latest issue features a poem by poet Robert Creeley, titled "Distance," which has never before been published.
"Because Creeley is already an established poet with a wide audience, this issue of Broadside poems may well become a collector's item after a short period of time," Terrence Williams, editor-in-chief and publisher of the penny-a-sheet publication, said.
Creeley's collected verse, "For Love," was a leading contender for the 1962 National Book Award, Reviewing it for the "Saturday Review," critic Dudley Fitts said, "At its concentrated best the sting of this poetry is indelible."
Seven other volumes of Creeley's work have been published, including "The Whip" (1857), "A Form of Women" (1959), and a single novel, "The Island" (1964), which Williams referred to as "a roman à clef describing Creeley's life in Mallorca, Spain."

Creeley later moved to Banabulf, Mallorca, Spain, where he started the Divers Press, which Williams said, "printed a number of excellent
volumes of contemporary poetry."
While in Mallorca, in 1554, he became editor of the "Black Mountain Review," which Williams referred to as "possibly the most important 'little magazine' to appear in recent years."
In 1555, Creley was invited to teach writing at Black Mountain College. More recently, he has been teaching at the University of New Mexico in Albuquerque.
