I love how easy it is to memorize her short lyrics like this, so I too will carry it with me today. I do hope there is no viciousness at the meetings...that is the worst.

What am I doing? Helping the economy, I guess. <br /><br />BTW -- I loved Holding Everything Down. I am trying to compile my own list of best poetry books of 2009. That one is near the top.Karen J.

If you truly don't think a single book by a woman belongs on your top 10 books of the year list, that's your call, but it calls into question for me your relevance to my life, if our judgments are to be so disparate.<br /><br />I just ordered (when I really shd be saving my pennies for xmas) The Narcoleptic Yard from Black Lawrence--my first book purchase in a bit, and I'm so excited! <br /><br />Some days I'd be fine with a rejection, if only I'd just hear <i>something</i>.
