(Thank you to people who sent poems about Alabama, utilize, and spuddle.I will save them all in my Permanent File, in the Real File Folders that Todd and Sangeeta gave me last summer.)
Dear READERS,
In one of the crazy emails I got a while ago someone named Martha said
in an articulate way that referring to her as a Reader
generic and offensive absolutely every word
can generate a response.
I like Readers more than People
but Martha did not.
Dear Readers I can’t force myself to go to one of the
Substack Seminars about Growing Your Audience.
Tell your friends or add their emails to my list.
And as for Selling Things Here
(advised by Austin Kleon)
I don’t but I could and maybe I will.
I have new editions of God is a Tree and Allen Ginsberg (to sell)
and i’ve been thinking of making a Poem t-shirt though
I don’t wear t-shirts but a poem sarong for instance would not
be as popular. (Austin Kleon also suggests that we END
each substack saying Hire Me to Speak. FYI I speak for free.)
xxxxxxx
You crack me up!
