last week may have been the best river yet;
RIVER WRITERS is on sabbatical til Aug

Everyone Gets the Last Words (until Aug)

all dear,

Carolyn's not going to make it up and while I was considering how we could bow variably out until aug it occurred to me that everyone gets the last words in the river--

bring a couple poems out, river them...
off to other rivers this july (i.e., Tiber, the Avon, Ax, Brue, Parrel, Yow, Cale, Chew, Tone, Frome, and Ivel)--

for those that enjoy being told what to do
and b/c of the recent unveiling of "The Tao de Towel"
the River's issuing a bawl for Fuck Poems--

fecund fiction fracas

river me this--
river me that--

this week we have a special fiction friendy and co-creator of the 1718 New Orleans Reading Series coming up to river with us:

K.J. Kelsch

fellow fictionaire: Boz Bowles returns for his second river

accompanying him for her second ring around the river is Brigitte McCray

and jumping in the river first is Taylor Gorman

what's your best line about the river?

hard one to beat:

"The Missippi
didn't kill
Li Po
so fuck it" Jordan Soyka


A river horse trampled
A river man

(my best line about the river before i knew about the river or lines)
