Poem by Richard C.

And look, it's on Perfection Paper. Or is it Perfect On Paper? No matter:

The half-imagined and half-real nuances of daily life and insistent internal second-guessing are all here. I really love this funny, surprised, touching poem. Thanks Richard, and I do hope your computer fund-raising is being handled by the right…

Mixed bag--and no cereal--from Richard Canard

Oh I take that back! See, in the most interesting 1970 "Son of King Kong" Newsweek article below, Richard underlines Purina Monkey Chow, so we do have cerealism after all: Also enclosed is Poem by Richard C. ("Quing"), which I enjoyed warping my brain over, and…

Poem and Asemics from Catherine Petre

This recent asemic style of Catherine's has captivated me: Wonderful--I love it! The thickness and spirit of the asemics are strong and dramatic.

Emily Dickinson as rendered by Theresa Williams ...

... including Theresa's truly wonderful epistolary poem on the back:

I find Theresa's epistolary poetry awe-inspiring -- have become a big fan -- and this may be the best yet. In very few words, she paints a picture that allows you to see the real Emily…

Theresa Williams's artwork that led her to an epistolary poem

Here is the art (but not the poem):

This is such a thought-provoking, mysterious, and visually appealing piece, by itself; and here is a postcard she included that is related to the art and its concerns (and also to the epistolary poem I'm not at liberty to post because Theresa is having some accepted and some still considered for publication):
