HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO JOHN ASHBERY AND HAPPY BOOK TO ME!

Woot! I just received my first offer for a chapbook or book for/from my series "The Ashbery Riff-Offs"! More details later, but, meanwhile ...

... a grouping I particularly like is up at the just-released June/July issue of DISPATCHES! They are:
Witnessed in the Convex Mirror: Civilization and Inheritance 
Witnessed in the Convex Mirror: Sun Rises Over Battle 
Witnessed in the Convex Mirror: Though She Should Have Known Better Than to Play An Asian Superpower, This Poem is for Scarlet Johannsen 
Witnessed in the Convex Mirror: Reflected Noise 
Witnessed in the Convex Mirror: The Absent Flowers

If you like these poems, you're bound to like an entire book of them!

Gratitude again to John Ashbery for his compelling work.  RAIN TAXI will be celebrating his 90th birthday HERE.  Happy Birthday, indeed!
