The traditional October to October Poetry Jaunt ends this year in June-why not? Prose has been knocking at the door for a while, and let's see who's there when we answer it. In the meantime, herein you can expect the tried and try awful Italian restaurants, bats that make you happy, Robin Hood meeting the school bus, Rock Hudson jubilantly climbing the Rockies, and sundry wistful notes and adieux to disappearing friends where love might be lost but sure as shinola is not forgotten.
