I’ve been writing poems for a few years now, but it was just in the last little bit that I finally got my [insert obscure yiddish word here] together enough to start sending a few batches out for publication. And in a bit of a milestone, this very week, my very first poem got published. On paper even.
So if you happen to find yourself in SF over the next few weeks, keep an eye out for issue #7 of the San Francisco Reader, in finer coffee shops and bookstores throughout The City….
Congratulations, you old [insert Irish profanity here]!
That’s fantastic! Congratulations!
Cool poem + cool guy = published poem
Sincerely,
Jeff

SF Reader
A DB copyrighted woohoo! to you!
Congratulations, Cecil! Fabuloso . . .
very cool.
as a suggestion, your next poem should be entitled:
“Insert Obscure Yiddish Word Here”
and, the poem must include the saying,
A shaynem dank dir im pupik.
[Many thanks in your belly button.]
(Thanks for nothing.)

Way to go, beautiful, Who’s the Cecil? c’mon who’s the Cecil?

Mazel tov! Now I have to find a reason to use the word “Pupik” today.
