Please remember to vote for me ( and send your friends, too!!!) for Poet Laureate of the Blogosphere starting Monday! You can do it here:

If elected, I promise:

— a vastly expanded Poetic Cabinet, including new Departments of the Pantoum and Sestina;

— a spending cap limiting all political poems to seventeen syllables or fewer;

— new regulations allowing slammers to take containers of more than two ounces of alcohol on flights, or anywhere else for that matter;

— support for a constitutional amendment guaranteeing the death penalty for lost protests at Nationals.

My slogan: “Tony Brown. My phone is off at 3 AM…what the hell could be so important at 3 AM anyway? I’m a fucking poet, dammit. I can’t save the fucking world. Call me after noon.”
