A Ball in the Hand is Worth 2 in the Bush!

Some say he has a worldly sense of wit.

Others claim he has a wilty sense of words.

You decide.



Introducing Jonathan Ball's


Jonathan Ball's latest pair of chapbooks tests the possibilities of language. In his four line poem, The Present Paradox, Ball explores the subtle complexities of syntax & perception, as well as the ironic relationship between presence & absence. Archimedes, meanwhile, while reminiscent of Jon Paul Fiorentino's binary code sonnet, marries language & math for a linguistic interpretation of arithmetic's most infamous number: π.


Jonathan Ball is a writer & filmmaker & the editor of dANDelion magazine.
