Steve Richmond, Rest in Peace



Steve Richmond has died. Here is a previous post on Steve with some background. In an email, Mike Daily, author of Gagaku Meat, said Steve died in hospice care.

Rest in peace.

This is shaping up to be a lousy week on the poetry front.



don't go geese!
everywhere it's a floating world
of sorrow
Issa
translated by David G. Lanoue



best,
Don
