Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Let's be honest. Words are dangerous things. As a full disclaimer, I am trying to get into your skull, into the very seat of control, your holy of holy, your innermost sense of self. It is a scary, and dangerous proposition. Lord knows -as I know myself pretty well- I would never let my thoughts into my own head, if I had the choice! So why in the world would you deign to give these would be parasitic ideas any further egress into your being Stop please at the blurb! If not, who knows, we might have stock market analysts quitting their jobs and joining a Morris Dancing Troop, or some in the sadly-coiffured Red Hat Brigade might go so far as to admit they are kind of deep-down frightened and might actually be gay. I myself was once on a fast-track to being an Ambassador until my heart got in the way. OK that was a bit of an exaggeration. But anyway, please be forewarned. I am an inveterate liar, and fabulist, which is why I have tried to just be candid to the point of actually showing my very ugly butt. And the destructive power of these poems if allowed entry into your soul simply can't be predicted, but I suspect you will survive, even if subtly, inalterably, altered in someway about which of course I take absolutely no responsibility. Since I am broke, and too old to be homeless, please just buy the damn book and recycle it straight away. You don't have to read it. I'm not happy with much of it either. Straight to the recycle bin would be best for the planet, best for my self-esteem and best for that erstwhile sense of smug self we all desperately need to fake in order to survive this red-blooded, All-American oileo-oli-patri-malarchy.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Somewhere between understanding time as one moment lighting the fuse of the next, -and only that instant truly being illuminated before going out forever-, and it being simply endless and beginningless, -however quantum mechanics and general relativity end up resolving their differences- there are all sorts of other beautiful topologies. Twists and turns and arabesques and interdependent curlicues. Who knows what sorts of beings inhabit the interstitial non-time oceans between moments. I'm telling you there is room for popcorn and re-writing, and the occasional lost poet who simply can't find words to begin to express his wondrous befuddlement. There will come a time when semi-sentient drones deliver love letters, but until then we have old poets that drone on seemingly insensitive to the fact that they are alone in a dark place and the exit from the closet door is behind them. What I feel about this latest book of monotonous ponderings is that it is monotonous only in so far as it is plainsong, very very plain song. I fell asleep while it was boiling away in my big soup pot, and when I finally woke up and ran to turn off the fire, there wasn't much left except a few denuded bones and a steam that was dancing quite lustfully.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - I thought I had renounced them, but they've come back. They were knocking forlornly at the back door in the middle of the night, so what else could I do but let them in Wouldn't you have done the same I mean there's far too much fear of each other these days, and what harm could a few half-finished semi-poetic morsels do Mostly they were cold and hungry and just wanted each other's company, and a cup of tea and a wee morsel of buttered toast. True, they were annoyingly self-centered and kept muttering their very modest glimpses of their very narrow take on what they mistook for reality. But are any of us really that different We talk to ourselves about this and that, and plan incrementally and subconsciously our glacial steps toward world domination all the while putting on a good show in trying to pass for normal when in fact chasms full of monstrous demons and volcanic eruptions churn within us. Or maybe not. There are more than a few of us who yearn to return to some vegetable form and are just barely tolerating the whole whoop-de-doo of mammalian life. So here we are. Words before words and words after words. Thankfully though, not quite drowning out the very restful, and blessed, and alternately luminous and dark, silence.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Tiring a bit of his own poetry (modestly prodigious though it was) as it tended to be about himself and about himself writing poetry and about about himself writing about writing about poetry, he decided to cleanse his palate and that of his three readers by writing some short stories. These stories are indeed exceedingly short, and many of them moreover are quite short also in the story aspect, normally expected of short stories. But he felt that though lacking in stature, aplomb, and natural literary worth, because they had all basically been inspirited by a dream, he would proceed with the whole dubious enterprise. Now normally in the blurbesque descriptions he provided to entice manifold readers (three) he relied on his wit and verbosity. In this case though he took dictation verbatim from a possessed typewriter he had found at a rummage sale. He did not know who or what it was possessed by, but then again, who does.…
