so here it is: i'm putting together a book of poetry from my favorite "off beat" poets, including myself. i figure that someone has GOT to do it... because there are some brilliant words floating around out there- and i want to get them down on paper and into the public's hands ( Read more... )

Oh yeah, Brian Wilson's work is awesome. He's such a cool guy.

Good luck with this project by the way...I always love to see people working to keep poetry evolving.

Oh, I forgot...If you need any help with editing, proofreading, general opinions, give me a yell. I'll be more than will to help.
I also know a very talented design student who does wonderful artwork and understands layouts, typesetting, etc. I'll gladly pass his infor along if you like.

You're welcome--just let me know if you need anything. My email is on my lj profile.

Yep, I know Brian. He was actually one of the first people I met in Gboro. *L*

my newest stuff isn't on here yet, but if you would like to consider any of my work i'd be honored. this is a link to my poetry that's on the internet... i hope to update it soon. everything on there is a few months old.
did brian give you those cds? i havne't had the chance to ask him. hope he did and that you liked some of the things on there.
good luck on your project and let me know if there's anything i can do to help you out. i'd be glad to make a donation towards its progress even if you don't find any of my stuff to your appeal. just let me know if i can help.

the stuff under 'everything else' probably holds the stuff i like the best, but feel free to roam where ever you like. as i said, i hope to update soon... :)

Re: to take into consideration xangelsxbleedx October 15 2004, 22:16:39 UTC

thanks miss cassie- i'll take a look at your poetry- definitely.
and yes, i did get the cd's- i honestly haven't had much of a chance to listen to them yet- only twice. it was a little different- the first time i listened i was like "what the fuck is going on?" but the second time around i was like "hey this is pretty cool."
so i'm thinking that i'll like it a lot given time to listen to it.
thanks so much for making them! i always love to hear new music!

i updated. :) um, if you don't want to search through all 111 poems, yell at me and i'll tell you which ones i like best - corse those might not be the ones you like best... so i guess we'll go with the flow and just let me know if i can do anything to assist you. (if i was talking i think i would be tongue tied after all that babble. :/)

when I get some time I'll go through my stuff and try to work on the one that you mentioned to me.

xangelsxbleedx October 15 2004, 22:18:24 UTC

that would be more than awesome!
i loved the setup of that poem because it seemed to push boundaries... it was so thought provoking, you know? and that's exactly what i'm looking for. your other poems are great, but not exactly on the dot- if that makes any sense. but that one- really impressed me. i'd love to have more on that level from you!

i was thinking (because i had nothing better to do) that you should call this book "death of a language" or something dark like that. i was reading over your da site and i came across the comments for the pearle of ticas poem, and you talked about murdering the english language. if the book is filled with entirely awesome off-beat poets then that would be really, really awesome. although, it is your idea, so you get to name it, but...

christ, i'm excited and stuff...
(by the way, i'll send you stuff soon <3)

xangelsxbleedx October 15 2004, 22:21:42 UTC

so be it.
"The Death of A Language"

that's it.
i adore you more than i can say garry raynor.
you make me dance naked in my big front yard.
(yes, while my gramps is mowing)

i'm very excited too.
more than excited really.
i've peed in my pants twice today over it.

for you, i know that i definitely want to use the prettiest ink. the other ones though are completely up to you. i trust your judgement. :)

i heart you with heartiest of hearts.
