Cage: An Autobiographical Statement
Inter-Zone – A French website dedicated to Burroughs & Brion Gysin
A favorite poet. Her 1974 book Ordinary Things was the book that most strongly affected me as a poet in my early 20s; it gave me permission to write. I had been feeling discouraged, because I had been feeling a language of poetry building in me, but most of my teachers had been confused or dismissive about it. One even went so far as to imply that what I was writing wasn't poetry. Then I discovered Ordinary Things in the University bookstore. I stood and read the whole book in the store, then bought it to take home with me. I had found someone whose voice was like what I was hearing inside my self, and who could be a role model and guide for my writing. It was a powerful, stunning moment, for which I have always been grateful.

It's A Big Web Out There–Let's Go For A Ride!The following links demonstrate what makes the World Wide Web so wonderful. This is the stuff worth surfing for. Inspired, unedited, unexpuragated lunacy at its obsessive, hilarious, ultimate best. The beautiful and the dangerous! The oddball and the sublime! The strange and the quasi-belligerent! What do you get after post-Post-Modernism: Art Damage–the final frontier! Remember–in the current ongoing climate of American antisexuality, after the blue-nosed busybodies win their war on 'child porn' on the Web, they'll probably go
after these sorts of sites–anything creative, free-thinking, vaguely
anarchistic, or cognitively challenging. Or, maybe you. If you've had a free thought lately, or dared to think for yourself–watch
your back. The Thought Police are no longer merely Orwellian fiction:
they are mandated by the misnamed Patriot Act.
The Spam Haiku Archive (yes, I have contributed) The Bill Bixby Memorial Haiku Bake-Off (resurrected from an untimely grave) The Surrealist Compliment Generator (how fine a fair and fulsome aroma you evoke, mamselle!)
