but

I honestly can't recall anyone being calld kempt

"Recruiting Sugar Boys"

last week I learnd 3 of my poems were rejectd by editors of an anthology in Germany. yesterday I posted on Facebook that I'd be happy to send a pdf of "The Bob Poems" to anyone who wantd it. one person responded. one.

so how do I endure the hurt of such rejection & disappointment?

I make art (that nobody wants).

"Circles" rolls to an end

 after 11 months this series is complete. I pin'd a bangle to the pocket of a white shirt which I wore to the matinee of "Titanic: The Musical." & once home I stapled it to card stock & added the final penny.

I have to admit that in these last weeks it was a challenge to continue the work because the initial excitement was gone. however after doing the ultimate piece I do feel elation that I was able to make 65 of them.

now back to "Playbill Piece" which I've neglectd of late. I suspect it'll take another year to bring that series to completion. I hope for endurance.
