April is National Soft Pretzel Month

But I prefer poetry. Here’s the delightful Sharon Olds reading her “Self Portrait, Rear View.”

Because it is still April

And still National Poetry Month (!) here is the Richard Corey Interactive Adventure, from Llamas.org. What joy awaits you.

April is National Poetry Month

From the Richard Brautigan Bibliography and Archive:

 


     This poem was found written on a paper bag by Richard Brautigan in a laundromat in San Francisco. The author is unknown. 

By accident, you put
Your money in my
Machine (#4)
By accident, I put
My money in another
Machine (#6)
On purpose, I put
Your clothes in the
Empty machine full
Of water and no
Clothes 

It was lonely.
