"SWEETLY, YOU RECOMMENDED EGGPLANT"

I'm honored that the new issue of Blue Fifth Review, which focuses on collaborations, includes two poems -- the first was written in 2001 shortly after dinner with Philip Lamantia...such a younger self then!

The second poem (which appears in moi latest) still amuses Moi -- that last stanza shows that it wasn't just this season's "American Idol" that generated some horrific song-writing...

Thanks to Sam Rasnake, hard-working poet-editor!
