good-bye, Richard Brautigan
The melody
has ended.
The flute
will never
play again.
Put it
into a box.
Bury the box.
Stand there
and remember
the melody
of the flute.
Cry some.
Go away.
Slowly.
(Good-bye, Mother.
Father. Somebody.
Good-bye.)
(And the wind
of a warm
autumn afternoon
causes leaves
to scratch
against
the tombstone.)

if i should die before you do, Richard Brautigan
When
you wake up
from death,
you will find yourself
in my arms,
and
I will be
kissing you,
and
I
will be crying.

the wooer, Richard Brautigan
I will woo
you carefully
as somebody
(big)
planning
to cheat
somebody
(small.)
I will woo
you
so carefully
that you
will get
so impatient
that you
will start
to woo me.
If that doesn’t work,
I’ll try something else.

Grace
“Come here,” I said.
“Yes, master,” Grace said.
We laughed.
Grace walked slowly towards me, and then she was in my arms where she fitted like a key.
“What do you want?” She whispered.
I could barely hear her voice.
“Why are you so beautiful?” I asked.
Grace giggled.
V
…and they lived happily ever after.

Grace
The dawn was a fragile glow in the room.
I lay awake and watched the day bloom, and I stared at Grace who was sound asleep.
The peaceful warm of her body was close up against me.
Her breathing was slow and heavy with sleep.
Grace was more beautiful than anything that I have ever seen.
“I love you,” I whispered.
And stroked gently her brown hair.

I have absolutely no artistic skills whatsoever, but I think it’d be really hilarious to make some public radio-themed old school Valentine’s Day cards. I’ve come up with these slogans but I’m sure there are better ones:
Valentine…you’re like a breath of Fresh Air
If I told you how much I loved you, I’d violate Rule 47 CFR Part 73 of the...

Are you watching it? NBC…I like it. The same 2 guys from Worst Week.
I am watching! I sort of love/hate Olivia Munn’s Leigh.
