Abstract
The late Cecil Taylor’s music has been a prominent example for poets: from Harold Carrington to Clark Coolidge, Thulani Davis to Ntozake Shange, Tracie Morris to Fred Moten. Less well known is Taylor’s own quixotic, unclassifiable, inspiring, brilliant poetry. During the early 1960s, he participated in New York’s thriving artistic scene, collaborating with theater-maker Jack Gelber and dancer Freddie Herko, and associating with poets Bob Kaufman, Diane di Prima, and Amiri Baraka (then LeRoi Jones). Taylor operated the mimeograph machine for legendary little magazine The Floating Bear in di Prima’s East Village apartment, and, in turn, would practice all day in his apartment while she wrote in the next room.
