Poem a Week<br />
Gary Michael Dault<br />
Here, below, is one of To Fu’s least offensive poems:<br />
Too Many Moons<br />
Too Many Moons<br />
For some time now, I have been<br />
contributing material to the annals of two entirely<br />
fictional personages: the first, a not very gifted Greek<br />
philosopher named Mediocrates (Theorist of the<br />
Middle Way) and, second, a young Japanese poet of no<br />
great ability named To Fu.<br />
To Fu’s poetry, such as it is, is characterized by a<br />
lax, shredded irony, a too sudden and unconvincingly<br />
urgent use of symbolism, a penchant for selfevident<br />
sermons-in-stone, and a usually irritating<br />
sentimentality.<br />
There were<br />
too many moons<br />
floating through<br />
my poetry<br />
so I took<br />
a flyswatter<br />
and struck<br />
at one of them<br />
only to find<br />
it was immediately<br />
replaced<br />
by another moon<br />
that then<br />
began to laugh at me.<br />
Very annoying!

India (December, 2016) – From our<br />
elevated viewpoints we watched a small<br />
group of children preparing to cast their<br />
kites into the dusking sky. Amusing to<br />
watch; over the course of twenty minutes<br />
the skies illuminated with colourful kites<br />
fighting for dominance and skillful heights.<br />
We descended from our spiritual perch,<br />
navigating our way back to earth and the<br />
reality of a busy night market.

Gary Michael Dault<br />
Having spent most of his professional life in Toronto, as a painter, university teacher and art critic<br />
(his visual arts column, Gallery-Going, ran in The Globe & Mail for fourteen years, a sojourn he now<br />
regards as essentially purgatorial), Gary Michael Dault lives with his wife, artist Malgorzata Wolak<br />
Dault and their seven cats, in a greatly cherished Victorian house (called Swan House because of the<br />
stained-glass swans bedecking it) in the town of Napanee in Eastern Ontario. Dault is the author of<br />
numerous magazine articles and gallery catalogues, as well as a dozen books about the visual arts.<br />
He has published ten volumes of poetry, and has written three television documentaries, all for<br />
the late Sir Peter Ustinov (the most ambitious of which was a 6-hour miniseries titled Peter Ustinov:<br />
Inside the Vatican). Dault has exhibited his own paintings many times, most recently at Verb Gallery<br />
in Kingston, Ontario. He has been contributing regularly to the online Monday <strong>ARTPOST</strong> for over a<br />
decade.
