"14th and First"--Tupelo Press 30/30, Day 14

Today's poem is the first in what will probably be a short series of poems about my days in New York, 1987-1990 or so--very much works of nostalgia. I hadn't thought that I'd be writing anything else about David (the man I wrote about in my memoir), but, well, this happened...

T.P. 30/30--Deathly Ill Edition

My poem for today, "Litchfield Pastoral (1970)" was written at the beginning of and just after a bout of serious overnight G.I. issues, so please bear that in mind. I might have refined it a bit more if I'd been up to it and had the time... I hope some of you like it anyway!

"A Blessing on Alessandro's New Guitar"--My 30/30 Poem For Today

One of the many perks of having children--they're great sources of inspiration, particularly when one is trying to write a poem a day :) ...

I'll just mention again that ANY donation in my name--even $5 or $10, and I mean that--will be appreciated enormously, as will just knowing that people are reading and, I hope, enjoying...
