The Line Break as a Door
from CONSTELLATION: Cadence Hosted by Jacob Pierre
An original short poem, “Ajar,” is read twice: once clean, then again more slowly, with room at every line break. The episode then takes the poem apart like a clock, looking at enjambment, caesura, and the white space between stanzas, and ends with three listening questions and one writing exercise. Narrated with an AI voice and edited by a human.

Loam Listen
Loam
Loam Listen is an expression of our belief at Loam that creative community can be a catalyst for resilience and reimagination in the heart of climate chaos. As the systems surrounding us collapse, it feels especially vital to nurture new ways of being through creating spaces for radical artists, activists, educators, and entrepreneurs in our community to share their stories on their terms. How can we continue to grow our capacity to be in right relationship with the Earth and with each other? How can we alchemize our personal practices into the seeds for cultivating collective liberation? How can we subvert the status quo, sustain biodiversity, and honor grief and joy and everything in between during this turbulent era of political polarization and digital isolation? With Loam Listen, we want to explore these questions in conversation with our constellation of creatives who are responding to the climate crisis with a commitment to imagination, compassion, and care.

::From Mythology to Cosmology and Spirituality::The best way of encapsulating the central motif, the particular constellation of ideas that motivated the production of this company and the philosophy underlying this project is the following quotation from one of our great teachers Dr. Martin Lings, otherwise known as Shaykh Abū Bakr Sirāj al-Dīn, who died in 2005 at the age of 96 ; “Our aim is to express some of the universal truths which lie at the heart of all religions” quoted from the preface of his book The Book of Certainty.Part of our aim and part of what driven us is trying to re-present the legacy of Dr. Lings and there by the Perennial Philosophy in the English language with the emphasis of the audio access. We want people to be able to hear on themes of perennial philosophy , comparative religion, and the deeper aspect of the mystical path in the traditions and to do this in a way that will be accessible on the internet through the spoken word with the emphasis of going
Bread by Charles G. Norris
Loyal Books
Bread by Charles G. Norris reads like a working class Great Gatsby with a tragic female main character. The author is said to have influenced F. Scott Fitzgerald. There is a kind of cadence to the writing, and arc to the story where this can be felt in both similarity and contrast. It follows the life of a woman from young adulthood to middle age between the years of 1905 to 1922 in New York City. She is a stenographer, has chosen the then taboo path of a “wage earner” as opposed to that of mother/wife/homemaker. The descriptions of the inner workings of a publishing house in a time when the printed word was still the apex of information technology are vivid. The social and domestic situations are touching and emotionally telling of how, however much things change, they also stay the same. The metaphor of “Bread” is quaintly heavy handed. “Dedicated to the working women of America”, Norris gives us the “straight dope” in this depiction of life in New York City in the early 20th century
