My "I" is constantly changing (perhaps this is merely AD/HD): overdetermined nexus of cultural forces emanating from several continents: skeptical of all Truths and seeker of the truth: iconoclast by enculturation, brain chemistry, and, perhaps, choice: perpetually perplexed, particularly about why we exist/ as the manifestation of overdetermined forces whose existence (and nature) is not as solid (or simplistic) as we would like.

Dream Death

Dream Death had its moment in the sun (about two-three weeks), appearing on four of Amazon's "bestseller" lists. At one point it was even number 1 on both the lists "Poetry, Asian American, United States" and "Asian American Hot Sellers." It still appears on two (although it is fading fast). At last note, it was #42 on the former list. I haven't been promoting it, so I'm not sure who is buying. Maybe it doesn't take a lot of sales to make these lists. Who knows? Nevertheless, since one doesn't really expect poetry to sell, appearing on any lists is worthy of feeling very grateful. And I do.
