    The first two chapters in the Rules for the Dance by Mary Oliver really made me think about poetry as I know it.

However, in this last poem that I wrote, Telling the truth is being naked, I did think about how I want my readers to breathe and pause between my lines and stanzas. I wanted to emphasize certain phrases and words to add depth. And to be honest (as I always am in these journals), this is probably one of the first times I've ever experimented with this.…

    I saw Kirkland dance Other Dances in D.C. twice within a week and they were not the exact same performance. As I mentioned above, the New York performance I saw her give was very different again (and not as stunning though rather poetic and introspective). These are all things I try to remember when I'm forming opinions from video of dancers I've never seen live. Though at least the quality of the picture is a lot better for dancers who emerged in this…

    According to research in 2004, pro football, baseball and college football are America’s favorite sports (Pro Football Is Still America's Favorite Sport).
