publication is the auction of the mind

Here are some poems, circa 2000-2005. Unless it says otherwise it’s a one-page poem. If it’s in italics, it resembles a book (i.e., the two titles at the bottom of the page). NB that some which look portrait-oriented will actually download in landscape format, and that is as it should be.

None of these has been published elsewhere, to the best of our memory, probably because we stopped submitting. Not so much because we would rather from Our Garret go / White - Unto the White Creator, etc.; but more because sending stuff out is a surprising amount of work.

NB by the way that if you do not select an avatar one will be dictatorially assigned to you. And it may not be all that pretty. I'm just saying.
