Can you believe that Native American writer Sherman Alexi has been taken to task for “racism,” as if a member of an oppressed group has the power to oppress members of an oppressor group.

Here’s the back cover of my first book. I am especially grateful to Peter Dale Scott for blurbing it. He is a former Canadian diplomat and is Professor Emeritus of English Literature at U.C. Berkeley.

Here's my prose poem, "GRUNT FATHERS NO FATHERS," which Andrei Codrescu published. Codrescu used to read his hilarious satirical essays on NPR. He continues to write, edit, and publish. By the way, I was so unwell when I wrote this that I doubt very much that I am responsible for it.

This excellent poetry reading took place at one of my local cafes. It is clear that there are some truly excellent poets in Philadelphia.
I read my poem “From Marx to God,” which I wrote in Paris years ago.
