This Tumblr posts PDFs of poetry anthologies and books of cultural writing and other classic texts, bits of important historical music-related interviews, old, rare, or otherwise important or interesting records, etc. Would that I had the time to take in everything listed here.

A video by fiilmaker Andrea Dorfman and poet/singer/songwriter Tanya Davis.

"Society is afraid of alonedom, like lonely hearts are wasting away in basements, like people must have problems if, after a while, nobody is dating them. but lonely is a freedom that breaths easy and weightless and lonely is healing if you make it."

"It's not your job to right a wrong / Just mark it FAIL and move along." With cute illustrations.

"White surf and a storm of sunlight, you running ahead and a smile Back-flung---but then, how go on? For what would it mean?"

"Clearly, you and I should be up there."

An interesting poetry event to which I went and at which I read and took a few photos.

"391 was first published by the poet and artist francis picabia in 1917 and was a bridge between the zürich dadaists, french surrealists, marcel duchamp and others."

"Oatmeal! I could almost taste it."

A poem/video by Billy Collins, US poet laureate.

"If we're not supposed to dance, Why all this music?"

"The background of this piece is that it's part of a 4 or 5 page letter I've written to a long lost friend of mine and Casey's. It's probably the only letter I've written in the last five years. Ironically, it's to a dead person."

"SciFaiku is a form of poetry inspired by the Japanese haiku. SciFaiku poems are short, minimal poems about science and science-fiction topics. They are presented with direct, tangible images in clear and simple language."
