nuns

Ha, I got a new job in... another flower shop! What's up with that? They're the only people who will hire me, apparently.
Lately I've been going back to poetry that I really loved; that's my reading material of choice when I can't sleep, which is always. But there's something wonderful about reading a poem that always has and still does make my heart beat a little faster while I'm sitting up at 2 am, and I don't know why. Maybe because I'm sleep deprived and it makes me a little crazy, so in some ways I appreciate it differently.
Going to a halloween party tomorrow, I'm thinking of being a nun. Any thoughts?

I kept trying to get Kathy to be a nun, but she was adamantly (sp?)opposed. Heh.

Like the nun idea.

Can you share some of your fave poetry?

A nun! That's great. You *must* post photos, somewhere.

Well, the nun thing... I procrastinated and didn't managa to figure out how to put together a habit at the last minute (I'm lame at Halloween these last few years). Maybe next year.
As for poetry, I've recently been reading Sandra Cisneros, Demetria Martinez (esp. The Devil's Workshop)... I like Li Young Lee, and Mary Oliver is pretty awesome. I don't read as much as I should :(

I love Mary Oliver, too. I just finished her Dream Work and it was so lovely...
