Tea and ModPo

My Kelly Writers House ModPo mug has finally arrived, and I feel like I'm now part of the in-crowd. No matter that I'm drinking Ecco rather than coffee and that Al Filreis and his fantastic teaching assistants are all thousands of miles away from where I'm sitting. It feels like I'm right there, participating in the discussions about "Howl", about Jack Kerouac's "Essentials of Spontaneous Prose", and about "October in the Railroad Earth".  If it's Wednesday, it must be Robert Creeley.  I might have to procure a black beret myself like TA Max if we keep on this way.
