Witness this morning's interchange on Facebook:
Edward Jones
When I look down into myself to see a scattering of birds, /
do I put on the new garments? /
On which side of the river should I wait?
-- Deborah Digges, from Greeter of Souls
Kristi Cartwright Hurd
What the hell does that mean? Have you been eating live birds?
Edward Jones
Yes, Kristi, I have been eating live birds. :-)
Or . . . it's a quotation from Knopf's poem of the day (celebrating National Poetry Month): poem-a-day.knopfdoubleday.com
Tracy Cartwright Christensen
Oh, hell, *LAUGH*...that felt good.
Kristi Cartwright Hurd
When I look down into myself I see pretzel crumbs. Damn these boobs!
Edward Jones
A poetess is born!!
