Poetry. Nick Piombino's FAIT ACCOMPLI, a journal within a journal, is a selection from the first three months, mid-February through mid-May, 2003, of Piombino's continuing weblog (nickpiombino.blogspot.com). "I thought about my handwritten journals filled with unpublished writings and visualized blogging these as synchronic meditations. Then the title came to me, FAIT ACCOMPLI."--Nick Piombino.

Nick Piombino (born October 5, 1942) is an American poet, essayist, artist and psychotherapist. Although he has been associated with poets from both the New York School of the 1960s and the Language Poets of the 1970s, Piombino's work is not easily classified, straddling not only poetic movements but the line between poetry and prose, verbal and visual, in challenging ways. His work across several genres is held together by the nature of time and duration. Piombino regularly collaborates with his wife, artist Toni Simon.
