Bio
I live and write on a barrier island off the Jersey coast where the wind and the waves fight for my attention. I write poetry in the same way a rosebush produces roses. I have no choice. Like breathing, it seems natural and essential. An idea germinates inside my head and lies down on the page of my notebook. My work writing poetry begins when I ask which words stay and which must go. The poem that grows from this must look as though no other choices could have been made. My sweat is my secret.

MICK JAGGER AND ERIC CLAPTON AT THE SEAVIEW

Rate: 3 Flag

Fish and chips.

Hell,

They don’t have

Fish and chips.

 

Take it easy Mick.

See the curly haired guy?

Met him on the lift,

Told him he looks like Bob Dylan,

Said it happens all the time.

 

Fool,

That is Bob Dylan,

Talked to him yesterday,

Got his autograph.

 

You?

A Bob Dylan fan?

 

Yah,

But the bloke didn’t

Ask for mine…

Love him anyway.

 

Happy Birthday, Bob

all 3! So much for sex and drugs and rock and roll is bad for ya!
Great poetic vignette.

I'm sure somewhere along the way, a little further up the road, those two shared more than autographs. :)
