In other linkage:
Nice interview with Catherine Bowman over at the IU News Room, about her creative process (always a favorite topic of mine).
Shameless self-promotion: the Winter 2010 issue of the Tipton Poetry Journal is now online, including a poem of mine.
How to make the Bruce Springsteen fan community collectively squeal like little girls - announce a huge, lavish, amazing-sounding "Darkness on the Edge of Town" box set, coming out in November. The documentary and the accompanying 80-page book (!) look like they will reveal a lot about Springsteen's creative process (see? we have a theme going on here!) around the album. Even if you're only a casual Bruce fan, check out the trailer for the documentary. "Words all over the place." Hee!

Finally, something I saw on a light pole downtown today. If this doesn't break your heart a little bit, maybe you don't have one.

Oh that sign on the pole. Oh yes.
My mom died two years ago (she was 85) of Alzheimer's and related complications.
About a week before she died she went into hospice, no longer waking up. Just a day or so before she went into hospice was the last time I saw her awake (kind of, somewhat).
The last coherent word I heard her say was my name.
the sign was sad but Lyle, that is such a poignant moment that you mention. i think i'll go have a good cry now!
