"Ken,
Can you post an excerpt or two too? I always
love that in publication announcements!
Ira"
...I will do lovely things in taxis
and count myself among the lucky, I will
comb the pale hair of boys with muttering
hands wanting only the satiate fact
of that silk, I will discuss perfidy
with scholars as if spurning kisses, I
will sip the marble marrow of empire.
I want sugar
but I shall never wear shame
and if you call that sophistry
then what is Love
