Interview for “The Poet and the Poem”
Still more news of the me? I’ll make it up to you later. In the meantime, listen in on an interview Grace Cavalieri conducted with moi.
And thanks to all of you birthday and surgery well-wishers! Your kindnesses went a long, long way — the surgery went off without a hitch yesterday. I was up and about in the evening, eating, walking, and simply feeling fine. Thanks very much!

Glad you enjoyed it, Sam!
August 12th, 2007 at 4:17 pm eYes I know Ames…however they sure took a long time to finally get it up on their web site. You would of thunk they would have had it up when it first came out last year. Geez Louise. It is the Library of Congress. I am just nobody in the middle of nowhere. They are the Library of Congress.
