hi.

it's september now.

how have you been?

here is something at necessary fiction, which jess is in charge of this month (so go often!).

and here is something at the sonora review.

jules, mathias and i have some poems about country western music stars in the new poor claudia.

it's a great issue.

one part of one of ours goes:

george jones always wears a george jones shaped mask. he washes mirrors with soap. he's not different. sometimes at night he puts the animals in his neck. he wants to see them there. and then he closes their eyelids one by one until they are swimming.

and another poem you may want to read in the journal is by dorthea lasky. here is some of it:

i smelled the roses first
whatever it was, i didn't care anymore
i went home
but there was nothing like that
there is the taking your hair down
in a group of roses
and the little flags the angels adorn
but what legs
and back did you scream into

the rest of it is perfect. you should get the journal now. i have a feeling you will love it.

oh, i want to tell you something. i ate at denny's.

do you like this song? i do.

miranda july's new movie finally opened in denver!

i think i will try to watch it today.

pont is blogging here now

here is a list of recent events:

1. indian food at taj palace

2. temporary tattoos with sawyer and rhi

3. camping at turquoise lake

brian kiteley is writer in residence at necessary fiction this month and is posting some really great stuff,

like this beautiful piece by marream krollos

and something magnificent by the king, seth landman.

you should read what he says about questions, too.

i love miranda july

very much

do you read her blog?

this is something she said:

5. I got a bannana popsicle, thinking it would make the memory of the night seem better. I ate it on the street while talking on the phone to my husband who is in Australia. Standing on the street was like standing inside a person’s body. In terms of the weather.

have you seen the new issue of bookslut?

there is an interview with the magical andrea rexilius

and

there is an interview with two other beautiful fabulators: brandi homan and becca klaver

today i have been reading ordinary sun by matthew henriksen, also with an interview at bookslut

one thing it says is:

we got out of the car.
we set our bodies in the grass.
stones held our breath.

this phone number keeps calling me: 866-301-7344. i'm sure it has to do with money. i feel like anytime a number like that calls it's always about money. unless it's for sandra. i get a lot of calls for sandra ramirez. she's never here. i don't know where she is. i looked her up on the computer. she's a beautiful woman in a bra.

i think i'll watch miller's crossing now.
