I’m in Paris! Yea! It’s kinda cold, but the Parisians are not nuts, like the British. Jeez, it’s just nature! Writing poems, working on plays and a very stranger screenplay. Plus I’ve edited Book of Dia down to fighting weight. 17K It’s Ginger’s birthday! This is the courtyard outside my apartment!
From everse this morning “Be Angry At The Sun” by Robinson Jeffers That public men publish falsehoods Is nothing new.

Watch the wheel slope and turn, They [...]
I kinda like. I’m not posting it on ginpoet: a) because of the terrible spacing b) I want (at this point) to submit it to someplace c) I really hate the spacing issue. Watching Looking for Richard.

I have no vested interest in them, but I am streaming live on another tab. Above is an issue of Word Outa Buffalo a literary chapbook I ran when I was @ SUNY Buffalo grad school in the mid 90s. Hard boiled poetry. I even advertised in Poets & Writers. I just got my first [...]
They’re testing sprinklers just outside my window. Soon the motor on the lawnmower starts, a gardener rides by, in circles, around palm trees having no business in the desert. Their trunks so long, water starved fronds sparse at the top, trimmed within a row of their life. King Palms they’re called, majestic in Hawaii, some [...]
I did have a poem published in the WOMPO listerv anthology, published by Red Hen Press. The donut girl All gum snap and pink inflection, talking up a trucker. She slips a cruller in a bag, licking icing off her finger, wiping it on her smock to show she’s just kidding. She drums her nails [...]
