many moods as the<br />

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!

Snapshots<br />

Tamara Chatterjee<br />

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.
