"Let's Be Close Rope to mast, you Old Light" / Plus Insulation Poems

Saintly Raymond Farr and his Blue & Yellow Dog Press will be publishing my collection of poems entitled, "Let's be close Rope to mast, you Old light". "Rope to mast" will be available for purchase at the Blue & Yellow Dog bookstore in November sometime. Friend, poet, artist Meagen Crawford has agreed to art the cover and I'm ever so peached about it.

In the meantime, I'm finishing up the Insulation Poems.

Here's a chunk of one:

Only one man throws his

hat.

Discernible self,

inwardmost country.

Intimate layout,

twisting the change of distance.

Collect every worthy limb,

be covered, and cover.

Held past myth.

I met no one

singing this migration song.

Have a citizen's throat,

monument keep me.

I force

the divergence of myself upon it,

swimming through animals who

do not enjoy being swam through.

"I'm sorry , about Baseball"

Here's a read of the current project, "I'm sorry , about Baseball":

Fooled, in threatening of placement, a form in

the rust, of refusal

from the vast plate these gods will not

flee, everything marched into

responds by shining, never entered twice

wreckage, mended elements into a

fabric, When you are careless it is

written down.

Kept to the earth in its consistent

mechanics, grew to fill the circle

Protection not defense, ease

filled me savage coterie being uncovered,

Every general plays

a piece of music his self, let this be

Accumulated smaller systems,

a collection be made of

everything, even space and leisure a

small bird might get into.
