| Interests: | NOTE: HELLO. IF YOU ARE BILINGUAL AND WRITE PROFICIENTLY IN A LANGUAGE OTHER THAN ENGLISH, AND WOULD BE INTERESTED IN TRANSLATING AND/OR PUBLISHING ANY OF MY WRITING, INCLUDING MY POETRY OR SHORT FICTION, PLEASE CONTACT ME BY EMAIL. Language. Sex. Laughter. Books. Travel. Good food. Good conversation. Art. Movies. Not necessarily in that order. | |
| Lately I've been reading: | Omnivorous as always...Jackson MacLow, Richard Brautigan, writing on the Holocaust, blogs, Buddhist texts, Zen poems, Joe Brainard, Barbara Guest's poetry. Grimm's Fairy Tales too...great stuff those! | |
| Lately I've been writing: | ...in many different forms from the short story to the poem to stuff that verges on stand-up material. Want to do more short fiction, though! | |
| About me: | My books include Sanskrit of the Body, which won in the National Poetry Series a few years back...and can be ordered through your nearest bookstore if they don't have it in stock, or purchased online, and Ants Dissolve in Moonlight (fugue state press). I translated two of Andre Malraux's early books for Fugue State Press also...that's The Kingdom of Farfelu. Forthcoming is a BIG book of poems, with conversations with Artificial Intelligence beings and drawings, called Alright, But I'm Gonna Burn Down the Building. That will be out through Six Gallery Press in Pittsburgh. Contact me if you want a copy when it surfaces in the next few months. Thanks for reading this far if you did! :-) | |

Dear Raven, The best way to get someone interested in you is to be interested in THEM...or act that way...ask him what sort of things he likes...music, books, etc...if he is too "badass" to be bothered by these kind words then it's better to just make a voodoo doll of him and put rocks on its head. Then when he complains of terrible headaches you can ask him "Wanna talk to me NOW?" :-)

Dear Raven, You should steal his immortal soul using a Ouija board...and once you possess it...you should make him our own personal monkey...did you see the movie The Craft...that's actually based on my mother's life...isn't she adorable? I love Mom...I am taking her to Zaire for Christmas...they have the most delicious monkey brains served frosted there...it's so much better than a disgusting genetically-altered turkey stuffed with hormones...EAT SMART!

Weird and Unusual Names of Real Towns in Pennsylvania
Posted on November 15, 2007 |
LOL..I love it. I wonder if there are "3 Trees Street" or "The Street Next to Main Street." I would like to name a street "No Name Street" just to drive the U.S. Postal service even more crazy than they are.

Yo Momma So Ugly...Jokes...

People who don't understand the rhetorical device of "enallage" (look it up Anonymous) should refrain from posting comments that indicate their own intellectual limitations. I am the presiding Julio-Claudian of the comment box and you have just been fed to the lions. Mmmm that felt good.

Please God, Smite the One Reading this Right Now
Posted on September 17, 2007 |
Whether God exists or not, I agree with you that it's hard to believe based on how the world was "designed." A four year old could (and would) design a more beautiful world (morally)...say, by starting with a world in which creatures did not have to eat each other to survive...the four year old would lack the technological skills however. Sometimes I believe the innocence and optimism we see in children is almost some proof of a god, but that's of course before society invades their world and begins to corrupt them and train them to repeat the whole cycle of misery we promulgate on a daily basis, on a worldwide scale. I'm happy to be your Scribd friend btw Narodnikki. Bill
