Poem a Week

Gary Michael Dault

Here, below, is one of To Fu’s least offensive poems:

Too Many Moons

Too Many Moons

For some time now, I have been

contributing material to the annals of two entirely

fictional personages: the first, a not very gifted Greek

philosopher named Mediocrates (Theorist of the

Middle Way) and, second, a young Japanese poet of no

great ability named To Fu.

To Fu’s poetry, such as it is, is characterized by a

lax, shredded irony, a too sudden and unconvincingly

urgent use of symbolism, a penchant for selfevident

sermons-in-stone, and a usually irritating

sentimentality.

There were

too many moons

floating through

my poetry

so I took

a flyswatter

and struck

at one of them

only to find

it was immediately

replaced

by another moon

that then

began to laugh at me.

Very annoying!

India (December, 2016) – From our

elevated viewpoints we watched a small

group of children preparing to cast their

kites into the dusking sky. Amusing to

watch; over the course of twenty minutes

the skies illuminated with colourful kites

fighting for dominance and skillful heights.

We descended from our spiritual perch,

navigating our way back to earth and the

reality of a busy night market.

Gary Michael Dault

Having spent most of his professional life in Toronto, as a painter, university teacher and art critic

(his visual arts column, Gallery-Going, ran in The Globe & Mail for fourteen years, a sojourn he now

regards as essentially purgatorial), Gary Michael Dault lives with his wife, artist Malgorzata Wolak

Dault and their seven cats, in a greatly cherished Victorian house (called Swan House because of the

stained-glass swans bedecking it) in the town of Napanee in Eastern Ontario. Dault is the author of

numerous magazine articles and gallery catalogues, as well as a dozen books about the visual arts.

He has published ten volumes of poetry, and has written three television documentaries, all for

the late Sir Peter Ustinov (the most ambitious of which was a 6-hour miniseries titled Peter Ustinov:

Inside the Vatican). Dault has exhibited his own paintings many times, most recently at Verb Gallery

in Kingston, Ontario. He has been contributing regularly to the online Monday ARTPOST for over a

decade.

Under the management of Ocean and Pounds

Since 2008, INDEXG B&B have served curators, artists,
