wheat

rival skies
old lows
think incisors
cut in half
lengthwise
not as crops cut flat
not such rolling machination as

scrap the way
the muppet bends
a sample
two duckets
so random
offend
so handle the way
your tuffet goes broke
hope chest
no hope
but for mopery to come

that’s “exposing yourself to a blind person”
that’s “carving a way to the sea”
card coming
card falling
get way from, get going

the landlocks we call for by peers

I like this.

Are you from Lawrence?
I saw the page for An Actual Kansas today, it looks good, do you work on that?

good.
what are you studying?
An Actual Kansas is good, I saw that a reading with Tao Lin and Deb Unferth is in February. That is awesome.

Stephen, i found you on Tao's blog. I am MFA. what do you do in Kansas? you will have to keep coming to my blog to answer these questions. that is a shame. if you want, e-mail me at baumann.baumann@gmail.com. now you will not have to come to my blog to answer one question at a time.

I'm totally from Lawrence.

but you don't even have any blogs for me to look upon, j crockett. i am confused. when there is no blog, it is like when you turn down a street in a dream and immediately there is a brick wall. everything is lost. you have never been anywhere.

I have blogs, have been blogging for 3 years. According to Ron Silliman, you know me!

HUMAN SYSTEM

Hope you're not disappointed. I would be.
