This poem has since been revised to be itself a bit more. Turns out the title was best for the first draft but not for moving forward as it was somewhat limiting. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/585428f6e3df28f29595fe70/1528241238027-EVUPJ5RAWE12IWSQP9VM/IMG_20180526_140603.jpg BLOG - Randolph Street Market 5.26.18 My first poem is usually always my most uninhibited - this was the first poem of the day.

Here’s a sample of what I typed. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/585428f6e3df28f29595fe70/1542736616279-NMSBB0XBF58WVE42W1B6/IMG_20181002_200523.jpg BLOG - Joshua Beckman Workshop Signed copy of my favorite book of his, Your Time Has Come. When he signed it, he seemed to be taken back to the time when he wrote it, which was the summer in NYC immediately following 9/11. He really went on a journey in his mind right in front of me. I almost felt bad about it. It also made me jealous, that he had a project that could transport him to a 3-month period of time, in the same moment that it demonstrated its own danger. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/585428f6e3df28f29595fe70/1542737563072-W1X89W516V89HBX52DMT/IMG_20181002_200433.jpg BLOG - Joshua Beckman Workshop Here’s the poem that was generated out of my diary. Notice the line taken from the typewritten image above this one. The poet admitted to me she had received a call from a former lover the night before, and it had influenced her reading of my objective diary, which was really fascinating. https://davelandsberger.com/blog/2019/3/16/rip-ws-merwin monthly 0.5 2019-03-20 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/585428f6e3df28f29595fe70/1553102537567-NK72Q46SBQRV1YRA0ZJD/DSCN1582.jpg BLOG - RIP W.S.
