One response to “happy Valentine’s…”
Damn! “Happy Valentines…” nearly made me cry! Very good. Sad (if I understand it correctly), but very good. Wish I had written it. No, I don’t. I write from experience, and I do not want to ever experience what it seems to be about. I hope you haven’t either…
Btw, we met Tue. night at Henry’s in Fort Wayne. I was the old long hair who was basically trying and failing to force himself, against every fiber of his being, to hawk his forthcoming poetry book, The Mother Goose Market. Ugh, I think I’m doing it again… I shouldn’t feel so hypocritical about it since all proceeds go to support the underground art scene, but I can’t help it. Anyway, I do enjoy the work on here. Good job.
