In high school my mother advised me to make my last lines into titles. It was very good advice.

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.

I HATE HALLOWEEN. This makes me VERY unpopular.

I like the way the prose and poetry interact.

I think it's a huge shortcoming of mine - this disconnect between the world of human and animals. We are animals.

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.

I'm fascinated by but afraid of animals.
