Today I revised (finally!!) and released permission to the following poems for an anthology on 'Fear of Brown' in the following order:
"Bananas"
"Poem for My Ancestors Adobed In the Walls of the Santa Barbara Mission"
"Blood.../Sangre..."
"Murder"
(I like that better than "submit")
(around 6am) (stayed up all night working) talked to my publisher - around 11:30 am - sent him poems to send & include in galleys

Today: wrote half a letter of recommendation for Tressa Yellig (good young poet—poetentially explosive) (the following was a paid-for metaphor) (that one, too; preceding)
(around 2pm)

Today: people die in Iraq while the death counter, our cost of the war, blurs off the page in its utter con.motion com.motion

Today: I spend too many hours of the day searching for a virtual kitchen on the glossy page...
