washington square park: this is when i was trying to do the cover for trout fishing in america.

you can pre-order richard's book by looking here.

 one of the things the book says is:

i do not understand the transition. i hold you until you disappear.

books:

maggie nelson: bluets: eventually you will have to give up this love. it has a morbid heart.

brandi homan: bobcat country: when we ask for what we want and get it, we're terrified.

bin ramke: tendril: you would agree were you here with me, momentous / and monumental you.

bruce covey: glass is really a liquid: hemlock is high in soluble fiber.
