Very little of my time is spent thinking about poetry, except the time I spend in class.

Humor is essential to survival. Funny poems are vastly underrated. Very underwritten.

My poetry definitely comes out of a female body.

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

I really, really fear head injuries. But when people hit their heads in movies or fall down - I can't stop laughing.

I almost never do free writing. Unless I am forcing my students to do it.
