[Newspoetry] all things newspoetry

[William Gillespie]

Hello,

I was having trouble seeing the humor in the Schwarzenegger election,  
and was pleased to see John's poem, which helped.

Here's a found newspoem from my last week's newspoetry binge:

I also would like to point out the following music video which makes me  
feel all right:

bushblair_endlesslove.mov

I am still working on getting newspoetry.com to point to  
newspoetry.org. It should happen this week. Sorry for the delays.

I think at some point the right frame of newspoetry.org was a poem with  
the proper date from a previous randomly selected year? That always  
seemed to yield for me uncanny coincidences that revealed the workings  
of history. If that code still exists could it be linked to from the  
left frame? Just a thought.

And most urgently:

Last week I saw a reading by a poet named Mairead Byrne at which she  
read the following:

HEADLINES

TINY ORGASM POPS OVER BAGHDAD
PERSONS RISK GENTLENESS
WOMAN BRINGS MAN TO BRINK AS MISSILES LAUNCH
NO SEX SAYS PRESIDENT SINCE 1993
TROOPS SEEK PRIVACY TO HANDLE COCKS
STRANDED BODY PARTS WEEP
BRIT SEMEN SPARKS DESERT FLOWER
PILOT NAVIGATES BY VAGINAL ACHE
FINGER SLIPS INTO INTIMATE ZONE
CITY RUMMAGED FOR GUERILLA KISS
