Talk to TAPPY

52665CF4-BA32-48A4-B577-5DEE4ED92BF4Okay, champ.

Here is your chance.

Now that you’ve sized me up, shoot your shot, let’s talk shop, get a chain going again. For old time’s sake. For whatever’s sake.

Email me about your obsessions with metaphor, couplets, disgrace, sacred spaces, the word “lollingly”, glossolalia, good cabernets, edamame, short skateboard careers, double g&t’s, interior landscapes, the flexing power of juxtaposition, the degeneration of poetic theory (and the loss of actual poetry critique!), the meaning of John Ashbery poems and his queerness, anything about/by/of/related to Lucie Brock-Broido, the mythical powers of C. D. Wright, shadows vs. limpidity, solitude vs. isolation, if you want to meet up for long coffee walks, book talks, poetry readings or rooftop hangs, museum wandering and art cruising, and definitely let me know how’d your day go, how ya feeling, no, really, tell me all about your writing, far off dreams, lonely secrets, big hopes, and what you wish you could’ve done differently.

If you’re inquirying about reading at KGBMNPS, definitely hit me up. (but no promises! :D)
