Currently reading this gem. Just finished the Joanne Kyger interview in which she talks about "the Homer Dome": a way of mapping her own life and experiences onto a Homeric narrative. "I liked the long human story going on...the things that make me feel common over at least ten thousand years. I'm part of the past romantics, and that is timeless and it's charming and it's breathing with the animals still." Next: Anselm Hollo! #poetry #poetics
yellow-mane bowers that bellow and scream
glowering over your head
cook for the pearl with the stunning versailles
and she’s dawn
pet me snake, you clown
cause I'm growing two
shrubbery seals
we're disparate
get shoes to eat
it's just mop hill
gasket mancrater benevolence threatens
mandibular attaché meltdown
zinger contusion is opportunity
socks
Yeah, I mean, poetry dies all the time, but what's the point of focusing on that when it comes back to life as soon as you open the other eye? #poetry

I livestreamed a reading from my living room last year of "Pandemic Summer", the first volume of my Hypnopompic Diaries series. #poetry
