Ways to Read
The three poems in this hypertext, Ritual, Moving List, and The Lynching, are interlinked. The graphics that appear at the bottom of each textual lexia are the links leading to successive lexias. While, for the most part, one picture represents one poem (as seen below), sometimes a representative graphic will not link to its respective poem, but to another poem or a captioned photo. The captioned photos (or photo lexias) are presented as subtext for the poetry.
To move between lexias, simply click on the photo of your choice at the bottom of each textual lexia, or, if you find yourself in a photo lexia, either wait to be pulled to the next textual lexia, or click on the image to proceed yourself.
A default path to read the poems is accessed by clicking the graphic of the farm house which will always be flush left in the textual lexias. I like to call this default graphic link the home place, since it represents the known path and a way back to the index page where you can choose another way to enter the poems.
