I have a complicated relationship with non-human animals. I've never really been close to one.
I really, really fear head injuries. But when people hit their heads in movies or fall down - I can't stop laughing.
My poetry definitely comes out of a female body.
I'm fascinated by but afraid of animals.
It's hard for me to find humor in my current non-writing situation.
I agree that comedy does a good job - and is often about - stepping over the line - Lenny Bruce, etc. - and that this is important for a lot of poets too. I guess I feel like there has to be depth.
