If you knew a single one of all the things that I've done

I am no longer in Providence. I am rather exhausted (read: there must be a brain in here somewhere), but I am very glad I went. See [livejournal.com profile] greygirlbeast for details.

Best thing I didn't expect to be told tonight by a stranger: "I love the brains of poets." She had been talking about Poe and Violet Jacob, but I had to restrain myself from asking whether she preferred them braised or sautéed.

With a scattering of parsley.

No, capers, delicately fried!

Hahaha.

I need to catch up on your posts! You probably have poems out there I haven't read :) I'm also still searching for the poem you wrote on that Hebrew prayer about people being God's light. Any chance it has been published somewhere?

I tend to prefer poet's brains shaken, not stirred.

I'm rather 'mazed that you were able to restrain yourself, i'truth.

Had to restrain myself from singing "Danny Boy Rest in Pieces" at a gig today. Bit disappointed that I only got to sing once--perhaps I should've just gone ahead and done it, although I do enjoy "The Lakes of Ponchartrain" and I reckon tis the safer choice.
