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 don't remember ever dressing up for Halloween but I must have. I do not like dressing up at all.

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

I like the way the prose and poetry interact.

I love food too much - not because I'm fat but because it's so consumptionistic, etc.

I'm even afraid of kittens. They bite too! But I respect animals.

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