Abstract
ABSTRACT James March’s poetry and poems are an insightful, delightful, witty and aesthetic – yet ultimately marginalised – provocation. With a cheekiness that exploits his scholarly reputation while undermining it, he sympathetically debunks the managerial ethos (indeed ideology) of rational certainty and strategic purposiveness. In introducing his poems, we draw on (arche)typal tropes of the clown, pirate, poet and garbage collector to reveal how March’s poetry provides valuable insights into the lived experience of paradox. In conclusion, we use his marginalised provocation to argue for a bearable lightness of being in using art to surface and address the challenges of living with paradox.
