I don't know what the alternatives are. I'm not inclined to go back and
find out all the possibilities. Anne Bradstreet? Oh no, this is
MODERN. Never mind. Actually I'd pick Frank O'Hara. So I'm not gay.
I'd like to meet one male American poet who is 100% straight (James
Dickey tried too damned hard). I wouldn't mind coming up as Mark Doty.
I'm also not a woman, and I came up as Sylvia Plath. If I'd landed on
Berryman or Lowell, it'd be too close for discomfort.
Second...Jenniffer Lesh. Not Ley, Lesh, she who was here for awhile
before leaving Bakersfield, I think some sort of romantic thing. I have
her old number stored. I called it and it's been given away to someone
else who has no idea of who I'm talking about. Has anyone been able to
locate her? Has she located you?
