Throat Ocean
If anyone knows Chris Macalino, pat him on the back. He finished his "novelty act" Throat Ocean and, despairing of its inadequacy, seems fit to throw it away. I've gotten ahold of a copy and it's amazing, one of the most accomplished texts I've read. Certainly publishable. A sensation waiting to happen. Now that I have finished with "The Sandman" I will get back to my long poem "Apokrypha" and give him a run for his money. Nathan's "king's(mere)" was a hard act to follow, but Chris has raised the bar. I can only hope that I have enough spring in my step to vault near it, if not over.
