Scribd, as introduced to me by my friend and publisher, Lynne Hayes, is quite the cool tool and has garnered me a few new readers. I’m loving it.
Anyway, here are a few links to there if you were at all interested.
for Micael…
the artist dreams of nightsong…
meditation…
gypsy bars…
hands on the hips….
All but one of those are available for free download and I strongly encourage you to download them, print them out and possibly hand a few out to a few people – or any of them can be obtained through me for the cost of shipping and they will then be signed except for hands on the hips – for that go to the page in print/for sale. FYI – the artist dreams of nightsong is best printed on a legal size page.

It passed into midnight and that is what the date bears.
Have this yet?
one poem in that collection begins….
Stuck outside under an umbrella ….
you’ll have to go there and download it to read the rest.

you are my own brother
– For MC
you are my own brother.
my AIDS stricken angel.
a heartbreak.
2.
I’ve come to find
I’ve always loved you
and out love flow thick
through shared veins.
could I promise you a rose garden?
or no, a field of daisies and sunflowers.
3.
you cannot help but be beautiful
and lovely
in summer hats
still dancing
under umbrellas in the rain.

Print out a copy for you, print an extra one or two for someone else that you may well randomly give them without knowing who the fuck they are.
This chapbook is a team effort of Lynne Hayes – editor, Micael Chadwick- Cover artist – and myself, poet. All of these three people are excellent poets and their links can be found here…
