a new haircut [sun splash]
"the lanky locks
shaven short"

Kate Bernadette Benedict and the good people at Umbrella have just published a sonnet of mine, The Body at Play (Issue 10, Summer 2009). They have been tremendously kind to me over the years and it is an honor to be part of their publication.

Thank you very much!

misery me! lack-a day me!
