Naked Jesus? Oh, hell, I write down everything. Welcome to the shiny new edition of my deep secret lands of poetry with new poems... and of course prose... and a few short memoir pieces from my chapbook Becoming. One of my rules for writing: Don't repeat yourself. Excuse me in this volume-because some of my words are yelled and repeated for effect. This may sound RATHER funny but I do not consider myself a poet but I string together GOOD WORDS, like hip hop poetry, my own alchemy. In this way the pen (and my keyboard) is my weapon, a form of exorcism or retribution for what really happened. On many occasions I call my poet self Sleeps with Knives because I have met sharks and monsters. Maybe you met some, too. There is big danger out there. We must all learn to navigate better....the words/poems are dreams, crispy wisps of truth. Ever think of humans as part of an experiment? I do. We're like elephants on a short chain. Mentally we don't think we can move. In this regard, we think small.I don't like it that I'm starting to shorten everything I write.
