A HYBRID NOTEBOOK OF POETICS AND PORNOGRAPHIES

Pornography Disclaimer

This is a an imaginary diary of facts, confessions, or messages. This is a notebook of working but broken ideas, lines, images, notes on books I'm reading, writers I admire, and brief fantasies of language. Here unfiltered  all mannerings pseudo-private, publicized, ur-. Here I am art and unrevealed: poetic, political and pop. These are my moonlit rough beginnings and should not be taken literally, directly, truthfully, reliably, and none of it is legally binding. These lies are all choreographed, but only haphazardly. Beware.

BRING BACK THE BARDS!

. . . . .

























The Chelsea Hotel. New York. Haven for Art, Family, and Ideas--what's happening when the Bards are disappeared?

We need our champions! We need the Bards to believe more in our Art and less in our bank accounts--We need people who know how to value the valuable, know how to discern the superficial for the unseen gifts of creative accomplishment, the work of engaging our lives in a meaningful way--and that the artifact of our struggles is not invaluable, but worth more than our rent, our debt, our mortal taxes--

Viva Bards!

Bards Adelante!

BRING BACK THE BARDS!

My work has been awarded the Katherine C. Turner Prize from the Academy of American Poets, a Swarthout Award, and has twice been nominated and shortlisted for the Pushcart Prize. My first book, A Book Called Rats, was selected for the Blue Lynx Prize for Poetry (Eastern Washington University Press 2007). I'm curating editor for the online journal of poetry: PISTOLA and my poems and reviews most recently appear in Massachusetts Review, Beloit, Ploughshares and RAIN TAXI. I currently teach writing and literature at Santa Monica College in southern California.
