VANDALISM (FROM THE HEART)

If my calculations are correct, I’ve now done well over 100 of these poems. Crazy…

    100 blackout poems? I’d buy the large-size coffeetable book. Get on that, please!

    Austin… Austin… have yet to visit, but my husband used to live there and speaks lovingly of the music and the Bat Bridge vigils.

    Your work is spontaneous, quirky, marvelous. What a concept, to let it flow. Keep it up, babe. And if we ever plan that trip to Austin, I’ll let you know, so you can tell me if you have any readings coming up.

    Very, very cool. Amy
