Sometimes I just want to post random brain droppings that I don't put in the main site, usually stuff that I didn't write myself, but I want to use as a reference or link to.
This sidebar is also a spot that I use to de-clutter stuff. It plays an important supporting role--think of it as Willow to NMP's Buffy.
If you came here directly from somewhere else, check out the other crappy stuff that I blog about.
Sometimes the reading of a poem evokes in me a thrill, a giddiness and melancholia. Sometimes, I despair at the beauty of the words and I rail at the unfairness of my own incapacity. Then, I kick myself for using words like "rail" and "incapacity." What a tool.
These are the poems that I love and posted in NMP. Some I have found while reading issues of The New Yorker magazine. Boy, they should be paying me a commission for promoting their fucking magazine.
