"Hey thanks everyone for the birthday wishes....you should all know, however, that my actual birthday isn't for another week....I was just thinking about it yesterday, while getting my hair cut...I never expected that much grey...oh well...better than being bald.."

"Then I shall consider my goal accomplished. I know we've spoken about this before...I came across a great quote from Hermann Hesse..I've been immersed in his books (again) for about a month now.. This is from the introduction to Steppenwolf.. "Poetic writing can be understood and misunderstood in many ways. In most cases the author is not the right authority to decide on where the reader ceases to understand and the misunderstanding begins. Many an author has found readers to whom his work seemed more lucid than it was to himself. Moreover, misunderstandings can be fruitful under certain circumstances." I read that earlier tonight and immediately thought about you. I take great comfort in the fact that this experience was meaningful to you, whether it be on an intellectual or emotional level. "

"that's the beauty of poetry. It's not about "smart" or "not-so-smart"...it's completely subjective. And I like to be at least partially ambiguous as far as meaning goes. These words are about a feeling I had, fleetingly, today. The words convey that feeling, as best as I can describe it. It's fantastic that you can perceive of it in a different way. Like the way instrumental music effects a person. I appreciate your input, and value above all the fact that it made you think or feel something. Don't sell yourself short.."

"I could tell you what it literally was about, if you'd like. I'd prefer to leave that all up to you. Birthday suit, huh? That's....interesting...."

"That's interesting to me actually. This is actually an older poem, and has gone through many permutations. I've settled on this arrangment, for now, but every time I look at it, I'm a little less sure. Is there another order you may suggest? "

"I've been a member of dp off and on since the mid-nineties, so you may have read some previous incarnations. Thank you for your words."

"Thanks, though I suppose it should be welcome back. Crush With Eyeliner was active from about 1997-2000 and again as bodhisattva in the early part of the decade. Gave up writing for a while. Now I'm writing again. "
