The Death of Cormac McCarthy's Dead Typewriter

After three full years of managing this blog and discovering/sharing the work of so many wonderfully talented experimental writers, musicians, and artists of other sorts, I have decided that it is now time for these curtains to close once and for all. Cormac McCarthy's Dead Typewriter has been a journey in and of itself, but as with any journey, it must eventually come to an end, and as with any journey that comes to an end, there will be plenty of journeys to follow it. Putting this blog to rest will allow me to focus more intensely on other projects and publications that either have already blossomed or are yet to blossom. I would like to thank each and every person who has supported CMDT in any way since 2011, and I hope that you will join me in moving onward to new pastures.

—Matt.

Three Poems by Hugh Tribbey


ROOSTING IO # 14

error-proof peat moss
nine 1-8 dime Decatur if you fall ale

happy lap wood doll laugh
enough jalopy eel

uber soy odd cool near pool
ebb lay grail aster rod eye hole
fop paste pay pearl load ode digits fits
ooze scene for weeble



ROOSTING IO #15

sue nocturne cyst sis stew
spell vex stat

dusk runt lentil icon
test role ovoid dye dime
Asian sin eats 6 thin

lynx rood 3 orbits sea otter
eek meter oil

rosy knoll rash whisker
green down in

yon
leap

weary hung gone
ugly treason leg



ROOSTING IO #16

aye toad
odor relay tilt

bean
taffy silt toll

late
idle den note

time velt elf stark
6 files toss avatar ash
arty ashbin con lamp weep
