The October Issue of Lily is now up -- with poems by John Amen (with an interview, yay! I'm a fan), Uma Asopa, Adam Parez, Peter Schwartz, Tony Zurlo and yours truly.
Dusted more books, cleaned -- untidily -- the kitchen and bathroom sink today.
A good thing came of it though: I rediscovered my copy of "The Highly Selective Thesaurus for the Extraordinarily Literate" (no kidding) by Eugene Ehrlich. Bwaaaahaaahaaaah!!
I'm going to have some masochistic fun with word poems.
1 comment:
My husband died from Alzheimer's disease complications. Does anyone have poems or short stories regarding that subjec?
