Epiphany
 Prose, the vanity of love
                                                 is incomparable, trivial, as if the
                 voice can ache thousands of gray
                                                                                suns from the bottom

So I succumbed and am now on Twitter at http://twitter.com/lisettetherese.  In a fiction reading at the Lafayette Library the other day Micheal Martone was reading, director of the Creative Writing Department at University of Alabama, Tuscaloosa, he told us he had a fascination with postcards, and consequently has written an entire book on them.  However [...]


…and I feel as if I should say something profound. But as soon as I want to say something profound the profoundness of the thought flees like fog under fiery sun.  Tonight as I was sitting in front of the eucharist at st.thomas in adoration, I realized that I want my poetry to point to [...]

How often have we heard this?  Do not all our mamas tell us this when we are putting on our makeup back in highschool, trying to look pretty to maybe just maybe catch the boy in our ap lit class.   We stared at them through mascared eyelashes, thinking to ourselves, they mean well but they [...]
