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.

I don't write very much about penises. More than some poets but not perhaps as much as I should.

I love narrative and sometimes I feel frustrated with stand-up.

I do not like candy. I do not like knocking on strangers' doors. I do not like having to deal with the candy disaster that is Halloween. I resent it.

Halloween means that young girls dress up in highly sexualized outfits that would never be acceptable if it weren't Halloween.

When I edit the poems - and I do edit, which some people don't mean when they use the term "stream of consciousness" - I'm usually editing toward greater accuracy, which sometimes means more fragmentation, because that is the way I think.
