HARD PRESS – SERIES 21: 12 POSTCARDS

Rochelle Kraut designed these postcards with the poems of poets roaming the East Village in the early 80s. There were plenty of them. Shelley will always have a special place in my heart because she gave me my first reading at the Poetry Project at Saint Mark’s Church. In 1979, I’d come from Philly to New York, and she made me feel at home.

I am going over shelves, into drawers, opening boxes as we speak looking for some Little Caesars from the 70s, and finding other things. On the way to someplace else, I found these postcards never sent, waiting to come out and be here now.
