SHORT ORDER POEMS

Come to H&8th Night Market on March 28th in Downtown OKC (http://h8thokc.com/) to see my friend and fellow Short Order poet Timothy Bradford and I type poems on the spot for the poem-hungry masses.

People have been busking poems for years I guess, and there was that awesome scene in Before Sunrise..."I'll carry you, you carry me, that's how it could be"...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_rjYR6qSO_A), but the immediate inspiration came from Kathy Rooney's Poems While You Wait in Chicago, which has been dropping dope poems in public since 2011 (http://poemswhileyouwait.tumblr.com/).

Here's about Tumblr for it: http:shortorderpoems.tumblr.com.

New poems up at Toad Le Journal. Many thanks to the magnificent Lisa Summe for these.

These poems are from the "Doctor" section of my full-length CITY OF TOMORROW, which is an extension and extenuation of the chapbook of the same title that Greying Ghost put out in late 2013.
