I TELL ON NO TELL

Jill Alexander Essbaum's HARLOT reminds me of one of my favorite poets, Evelyn Lau. Not because of eros or the narrative contents in their work so much as tone: they both got that dark music of clinking ice and highball glasses going on....

Speaking of HARLOT's publisher, No Tell Books, they just released an anthology with one of my weirdo poems -- but that shouldn't preclude you from checking out, nay, buying this newly released anthology
The Bedside Guide to No Tell Motel - Second Floor, Edited by Molly Arden and Reb Livingston
