KINETIC ID:
​Past presence. Hijack the broadcast. Shift.

​Push the spoken word straight into a high-contrast cinematic arena where battered dimensions and silent ghosts shatter the page. The visuals take control.

​Cyan-washed frames dictate the rhythm while the poem breathes on its own. Look. Witness a total experimental override. Stop.

​Inverted portraits and sharp geometry smash into the raw gravity of the inflected vocal track. Lean in. The text turns into a living, kinetic force. Refuse to detach.

​Hit the link in the bio to stream more films based on an actual poem, dig through the entire published archive, and catch my recent feature on the Inside the Eye podcast.

In 2013 Steven received his first Pushcart Prize nomination from Crack the Spine Literary Journal for the poem, Over Exposure. He has over 95 publication credits presenting more than 125 of his poems. In addition to poetry Steven paints, creates photo, video and experimental sense works.

Steven enjoys calling himself Steven and capturing things he’s seen almost as much as things he has not. To date he has quite a collection of both.

KINETIC ID:
Flood the frame with a hyper-saturated thermal wash. Let it bleed straight into the deadpan reality of the text. Bold red typography slashes the screen, pulsing raw publication stats directly over a wry smirk. Drop a Pushcart Prize nod right next to a complete refusal to play by traditional rules. Own the collision. Steven drives the momentum of a creator actively collecting both the seen and the unseen, entirely blurring the line between contemporary poetry and experimental sense works. Catch the rhythm. Read more bio bits, hit the poems, and watch the experimental sense works unfold straight through the link in the bio.

a reflex a prorated nerve revised

- and thank you to anyone & everyone who listened - TBH - I've been blocked in my ability to FULLY express what it meant for to ask me to spend half 'n hour talking about my work; and for lax in sharing my unique elation, saved explicitly for everyone who cares enough to read said work, let alone listen to us discuss it » . ...

But, Baby.... . What a Discussion ... .

X Marks Everafter

Take this and go
with a stabbing of your own

Take this brash assurance

There’s a mark already set across
the eternity you pursue

Take that tattered notice and go

Tack it up against lament
like a map fading against a fear

Take an X to eternity go

Track marks across your Everafter
to keep it intact

​KINETIC ID:
​Harness the driving repetition and route it straight into the core to spark a relentless, forward drive. Push. Feel the undeniable rhythm assume total command, compelling sharp syllables and heavy beats to continuously cascade against the boundaries of the stanza. Let the internal directions propel and amplify across the space—active, vital currents that capture the hesitation and build a fiercely intentional pace. Break completely out of the shadows and take the space right now. Lock down the future by hammering a raw, undeniable mark straight onto the page. Grab the exact velocity and hit the catalog through the link in the bio.
