About Me
I am retired, now a professor emeritus at University of Louisiana at Lafayette, where I taught in the English department for 37 years. I've written 4 chapbooks and 5 full-sized books (all listed as poetry though many include other genres as well), including _Sheer Indefinite: Selected Poems, 1991-2012 (Univ. of New Orleans Press, 2012). I've also written a 500+ page bibliography of three contemporary poets: Robert Creeley, Ed Dorn, and Robert Duncan. I am writing now, both fiction and poetry, more now than ever. My first vote for President of the United States was for Dick Gregory in 1968 (Bowling Green, Ohio). Favorite quote: "It's easy to be an idealist if you don't have to mind the evidence, but no one said it was supposed to be easy" (Richard LaPauvre).

For your morning fix of lies, tune into Fox & Friends. . . . Please come CAPTION Brian Kilmeade!!!
Brian ("Once I had a thought, but I'm beyond all that!" ) Kilmeade is saying: "The worse thing about the main-stream media is that they will ignore the largest story of the year (maybe decade!) simply for ideological purposes. Just think, to help one of the presidential candidates, they'll deliberately ignore a story that is profoundly impacting the entire country in historic manner. Can you imagine the craven audacity? . . . They'll yack on and on and on about some fake virus and never even ask Joe Biden about his son's laptop! . . . . There ought to be a law!" ******************************************************************* Above CAPTION based on Fox & Friends lack of pandemic coverage Oct. 26- . |
