good gawd i'm exhausted! don't know why. got close to 4 hrs sleep last night.

the past week got some goodies in the snail mail, including another brilliant fhole. excellent poems, both visual and verbal by, to name just 2 poets, david-baptiste chirot and steve dalachinsky.

and today, got a big package from john tyson. really his generosity nearly brought me to tears. i'll have more to say about these chaps. at the moment i'm holding them, thumbing thru the texts and smelling the ink.

gonna stay up just for a bit longer and try to work a bit on an old sequence called 'negatives in blue'. then it is anchor steam time, holiday brew, and an earlier nighty-night.
