Someday I will write a book about the things people forget to tell me.

April is National Poetry Month here in the US, which is, perhaps, one of the best possible excuses to spam my friends list with random poems. Here are four poems I'm crazy about: What Cowboys Know About Love, Oatmeal, That Vagrant Mistral Vexing the Sun, and How to Love a Bicycle.

Mmmm. Poetry. I love language- I just wish English weren't so... ugh.

Didjaknow that Jude has a song entitled "I want to be your Gay Cowboy"? Cause if you didn't before, you totally do know.

I just bought the Louis McKee book. Man, my life is good.

i love how you waited until the end of april to talk about poetry month (the poems were entirely beautiful, by the way [what, no billy collins?!])

ok, those parentheses and brackets were totally superfluous.

I didn't find out until today! THAT'S why I didn't mention it sooner.

And, you know, it's more fun to link people to poems or poets that they don't already know.
