I think I love humor in poetry, but not that slapstick cheap easy humor, but that uncomfortable, "did she say that out loud?" kind of humor.

I do think that given my background as a poet, and also I work in a different field, you're sort of neither here nor there.

For the most part, it's a world of artists that are very in their own heads.

I think e-mail and social media and all that has made me feel way less isolated than ever before.

I think my way of being "funny" is just saying things that people think but have learned not to say, whereas, I haven't learned not to say them.

I've read a lot more than most of the people that I know, except for one of my really close friends reads way more than I do.

I definitely have favorite books by favorite poets, but poets' books also vary. I could like some books, but not like another book.
