probably the poem which inspired me to start writing poetry which has turned out surprisingly well in the end, other favorites (not my own work) include: âA Regretâ - David Trinidad (his collected works are worth picking up)
âSong in my heartâ - Diane Seuss
âW Bâ - Bertolt Brecht
âReturn to Lesbosâ - Ed Smith
âDec. 28, 1974â and âA White Cityâ - James Schuyler plus an innumerable more that I canât recall since my copy of the collected works is missing
âGood Bonesâ - Maggie Smith
â6:22 amâ Gerard Malanga
Sacred Emily - Gertrude Stein
Gee, Youâre So Beautiful That Itâs Starting to Rain - Richard Brautigan
Precious Lord - John Taggart
Goodtime Jesus - James Tate
This has been stuck in my mind since I was 16. and I still really like itâs lighthearted spell emerging from the darkness.

so much to talk about, the sunglasses, the scarf, the fresh baguette and coffee, the always lovely cafe setting. I think this is the most swag ever captured on camera I aspire to be at this level
