yolks and yokes

so i discovered a new poet the other day, Mark Yakich, a prolific writer with a sugar mama. no really. while looking at his new (first) book, Unrelated Individuals Forming a Group Waiting to Cross, i found this little scrap of a poem:


Before Losing Yourself Completely to Love

Drop breadcrumbs around your feet.
You will find yourself far away and hungry.



on a different note, this saturday night at the Parish, Dorothy's brother will be playing with his two bands, Okkervil River and Shearwater, along with much-hyped Centro-matic. Sophia and i will be there, so come hang out with us if you don't have plans.
