Profile Information

Something About Me and My Book:
"Payday Loans" (Poets Wear Prada, 2007) is a sequence of 30 sonnets about migration, sex, love, and work in the wider contexts of papal succession, war and the Asian tsunami. I teach poetry writing with the New York Writers Workshop. My second book of poetry "Equal to the Earth" is forthcoming in 2009.

Come on, straight boy

Come on, straight boy, and make gay love with me.
One night of loving will not turn you queer
if queer is not what you will bend to be.
Loving a man is but a change of gears.

Why do it with a girl, an undulating
waterbed, and stress leaks pinched too late?
Why with an oven she loves regulating,
you stick your tray of cookies in, and wait?

Men love themselves when they love other men.
Loving themselves, they know well how to give
each other head, maneuver two or ten
round the bend of straightforward relief.

What have you got to lose? Leap, acrobat!
You can still fall back on pussy cat.

--from "Payday Loans" (Poets Wear Prada Press)
