Okay, I will seriously start posting interesting stuff soon, I promise. But check it out: It’s my poem, yo.
I should use this space to say thanks to Kevin Stein, who has a poem about working on a ladder, which inspired this one. I can’t remember the name of his poem off the top of my head, and all my poetry books are a’scattered across the office floor.
Ya’ll should check out Kevin Stein, by the way, because he’s the ma-fuckin man.
“Falling Off the Ladder” (I can remember the names of my own poems, it seems) opens up Stone Speak, my manuscript, which is MFA-speak for “dumb unpublished book.” It’s pretty cool The Brooklyn Review (which you should also check out, incidentally) decided to stick up my poem on its site. Thanks, ya’ll.
