Favorite Poems Project: New Poems up for Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday


We now have nine poems posted as part of the Favorite Poems Project. A new blog has been started to feature the daily poems. We have eleven days left, so eleven chances to send us your faves. That's right, faves. I know the lingo.


Today's poem comes from a very good literary journal called The Nervous Breakdown. TNB is not a typical journal. They have a lot of work that the "reputable" zines would balk at. Also, they let authors download their own work, so they constantly have new material. Also, they do edgy things like the self-interview. Hannah Wehr, the poet behind, "Dude, You Ruined David Bowie for Me," gave a hilariously odd self-interview. It made me laugh. It made laugh some more. It made me frightened. Enjoy.
