i know not what your deal is

i am a fuggin lovely bastard
i have you mid-quake
fuggin give me your whole
fuggin cram a whole lotta your love into me

i am fuggin broken down inside this church
i am a dead monk laughing
vow of fuggin silence be damned

cuss into the fuggin butt of my worship
the petals of sacrament have been plucked

i remember you laughing
you are the number of times i have laughed

if i had a cell i would grow moss inside it
inside each of my holy cells a new fuggin moss explodes

what's great is you
what's never is complete
constantly i dream i am complete
of you

hallelujah, giant space wolf trailer

thank you diana ross and the supremes.

youtube put an ad on it because "third party content." so basically they get to make money off shit that they don't own either. maybe i'll upload it to vimeo. i just wanted people to know that i'm not trying to make money off this or someone else's anything because that would be evil.

ok. here is the same video uploaded to vimeo in case it's decided that i am using the song unfairly, which i don't think i am.



bryan and i are trying to come up with ways to win a copy of the book that doesn't involve a battle to the death. ok. i love you. don't die until you die.

radio killed the blogging star

this sunday i was on the poetry show on krfc, which is a small radio station in fort collins. the show is hosted by dona stein and susie martinez.

i read poems on this show for close to an hour. i also did my best to answer a few questions about poetry.

i read some poems from hallelujah, giant space wolf as well as from a second manuscript that i am nearing completion on.

here is the show in its infinity for your lissnins in your itunes or whatever.

thank you to dona stein and susie martinez for having me on the show. it was lovely.

also, apparently danielle ate the sandwich is a band. i wasn't paying attention to the commercial, but i managed to hear that phrase and decided to repeat it throughout the show.

also, i read a mark leidner poem at the end of the reading because i didn't bring enough of my own poems.

i will beat up every last youth pastor in america

elizabeth and i are putting together a new chapbook and we're looking for submissions.

info here.
