So I have this nice, solid cardboard box where I store copies of almost everything I've ever published in print. Of all these things, I am only missing a couple of Hammers Magazines and a very important Chicago anthology that I have been missing for many years (thinking perhaps that I gave them to an old friend).

The value of this anthology to me is simple. It is an important part of my life, one of those charmed moments where old friends and acquaintances recognized the incredible energy that enveloped us all, and so the moment was preserved.

The poems in this anthology are for the most part the signature poems of the contributors in that moment (many of which were my personal favorites ... that I have been missing for so long).

What a moment indeed, it rocks my life still!
