Overview

"DH Jenkins' jazz poetry has appeared frequently in the pages of my magazine. He consistently combines a reverence for the music with a deep understanding of its historic past, its spirit and its meaning, and connects readers to it through his impressive gift for linking jazz to art, nature and personal experience. Reading his work adds to one's appreciation for jazz, and for poetry. -Joe Maita, Jerry Jazz musician A chance meeting on a Kurihama bound train found artist/musician Bill Scholer in a conversation with the poet D.H. Jenkins. This meeting led to a collaboration creating the internationally recognised short films, ""Call From A Distant Shore,"" ""Triumph Of The Tweet,"" ""Our Autumn"" and ""A New Mask."" These thought-provoking animations are based on Jenkins' poetry. ""Patterns on the Wall"" brings Jenkins' poetic magic to the page where a tenor sax is moaning through a Jamaican eve, a night train steams through a European winter, and Picasso's Melancholy Woman sits in blue tones. DH Jenkins: constant traveller and world's poet."" -Bill Scholer, artist, musician, filmmaker"
