Michael Benedikt: "To live alone is to be immensely in charge of the silence."
The Benedict Project continues! Follow the link below to The Bakery for an announcement, along with a baker’s dozen poems. I hope you like them as much as I do.
And please spread the word. His story could be the story of any of us.

crosJohn,
Great to hear the news that Michael's suitcase is a going concern, which made me go back to some back issues of Madrona. Apart from appearing in issue #1, he also had three prose poems in issue #7, edited by John Levy and which appeared in the latter part of 1973. I don't know if you have copies of these but I can send you some if you don't. Here we go: "The Allegorical Figure of Compulsory Melancholy Or, The Midget Pervert Quadruple Minority
Group Amputee," "The Cultural Lovers,"Letter to a Drip Or, Reply to Polyana."
This is cool!
