Delayed

I don't know why, but I never posted that I was asked to do a reading report for the Poetry Project. I was pretty nervous writing this one and very flattered to have been asked.

Robert Gluck & Eileen Myles at PP

Upcoming articles for Vol1:
On Apathy
Review of Not Not Fun's My Estrogeneration, a comp. of all female artists (NNF's first ever)

Lately I've been working on The Bridge. Release date estimated for February. Be on the look out for a reading.

Also, a manuscript is in the works. I've made a deadline for myself of "late summer".
Draft of one poem/drawing for the book:

metaphor

nuzzle this muzzle

reaching for knitting needles,
he finds his toothbrush

these barrels are blank
and come the breech,
darkness

this human body
is my structure

and after the tongue
darkness

for his shirt sleeve,
blankets

one little two little three little jungians

or anima-ted or gender gear


had a dream & you should hear about it. jung was there. jung was there. and jung was there. they told me that in order to climb that mountain, i had to be a woman. i got to the top and found myself a man. on the top of this mountain there were things i could see and valleys were among the most prominent. this made absolutely perfect sense in the dream, because dreams are very easy to understand. then my alarm clock didn't go off but my body knew it was time for work so i went to the office and i had a dream that i was a man on top of a mountain looking down at a woman on top of a valley. i was also that woman looking up at a man on top of a mountain looking down at a woman on top of a valley.

i even went out to dinner. and i was still that mountain man viewing that valley woman viewing that mountain man. i told you this but what you heard was that i didn't believe in eternity. miss-communication is important, so i didn't correct you, although maybe i should have.
