Quotes

"January 18, 1979" lines 7-12, Corpse and Mirror, Henry Holt, 1983
Why isn't there more meat on this chicken It's as if the damned thing began starving itself once it knew what the future had in store for it Is this what they mean by "organic"
"Domestic Bliss" lines 10-13, Borrowed Love Poems, Penguin, 2002
