with a straight face,
explain to me how sumone can be so funny
and poignant
while reading off a piece of glossy paper stock
that mashes flav's love into a technicolor rain
coating the entire room that day.

now available for pre-order, j. michael niotta's chapbook, "the devil's doin the same damn thing he's always done.'
noir, bars, women & cars - from vegas to dago, the brothels of germany to doha, kuwait: a wild & gritty collection of 17 cuts: pomes & prose, plus 3 excerpts from the novel, ‘the ants, thirsty,’ all from the former editor/columnist of 86…the man who put "hard fic" on the streets…the hardcore referee/translator/negotiator you’d hire when sitting bookended in a bar between nick tosches & chuck palahniuk.
"look, the stuff is good. quite good. straight up - like a good half-glass of whiskey." —dan fante, author of ‘mooch,’ ‘spitting off tall buildings,’ ‘kissed by a fat waitress,’ & ‘a gin pissing raw meat dual carburetor v-8 son of a bitch from los angeles.’
Just wanted to say thanks for being a real friend of mine on Myspace. If you have any poetry or know a really great poet that you like - let me know - i'm always looking for new poetry & poets to feature on 10K Poets.
I submitted a few poems to Kill Poet but I haven't heard back. I tried being cute with my Bio and I think it may have done me in. "My poetry should speak for itself" can be taken in a couple of different ways I suppose.
I saw a video of you reading a poem and I have since become an even bigger fan of your work.
Don't know how long I'll be there, but I'll be driving, and have to fit in SD and SF, too, so we'll see, but I don't even wanna say, cuz last time it was just BECAUSE I was there so damn long that we barely saw each other, took it for granted. Yup, past transgressions must be shattered! And there will be no on-my-way-to-PJ nonsense, either.
