About Me
I am retired, now a professor emeritus at University of Louisiana at Lafayette, where I taught in the English department for 37 years. I've written 4 chapbooks and 5 full-sized books (all listed as poetry though many include other genres as well), including _Sheer Indefinite: Selected Poems, 1991-2012 (Univ. of New Orleans Press, 2012). I've also written a 500+ page bibliography of three contemporary poets: Robert Creeley, Ed Dorn, and Robert Duncan. I am writing now, both fiction and poetry, more now than ever. My first vote for President of the United States was for Dick Gregory in 1968 (Bowling Green, Ohio). Favorite quote: "It's easy to be an idealist if you don't have to mind the evidence, but no one said it was supposed to be easy" (Richard LaPauvre).

"Michael Flynn is a true American hero!" . . . Please come CAPTION Sean Hannity!!!
Sean (With an I.Q. the level of roadkill) Hannity is saying: "So let me get this straight. Mueller and Comey have been and still are the heads of a cabal inside The Justice Department whose sole purpose is to undermine American values and hand this great country over to our enemies. . . . For this they have hired criminal prosecutors who suborn the perjury of anyone they have their sights on. . . . And they usually focus on the people who most clearly stand for American values. . . . Therefore they went after Michael Flynn, a true American hero. . . . Makes perfect sense." **************************************************** Above CAPTION based on the following Hannity panel covered by Media Matters with a healthy clip: https://www.mediamatters.org/blog/2017/12/01/Sean-Hannity-has-been-laying-the-groundwork-for-Trump-loyalists-to-brush-off-Flynn-plea-de/218705 |

"Is there a brain in there, or just horn?" . . . Please come CAPTION Sean Hannity!!!
Sean ("What's wrong with 'just horn'?" ) Hannity is saying: "And I am not exaggerating one whit when I say that if just one-hundredth of what we've discovered n the past several weeks and discussed here tonight is true, . . . then not only should Robert Mueller resign, but he should turn himself over to the authorities for having committed treason against The United States of America! . . . You don't have to exaggerate when you have the truth." ************************************************************************* Above CAPTION based on the right wing's increasing attacks on Mueller as in this story from The Hill: http://thehill.com/homenews/administration/361610-anger-at-mueller-burns-hot-on-the-right |

Please come CAPTION Moore supporter and former Republican candidate for president, Alan Keyes!
Alan ("God keeps screaming in the middle of my cranium" ) Keyes is saying: "Roy Moore's trips to the mall were obviously spiritual in nature. Wasn't it Jesus who said 'Suffer little children to come unto me'? . . . Well, these days Jesus would obviously have to go where the children could find Him, right? . . . Don't you see? . . . Or is the left-wing media too blind to understand scripture when it's staring you straight in the face???" |
