Your points about fiction/non-fiction/poetry were really interesting. And you totally are one of us because your analysis was thoughtful and spot-on and I think a fine example of creative non-fiction ACKSHUALLY.

Also your glasses and hair are the very most cutest ever.

Back during the first Inspiration Meme, lizzy_someone posted this hauntingly beautiful poem about 9/11 by Michael Symmons Roberts. I went and recorded it that night, but I never really knew what to do with the recording. I guess now would be the time? My reading of Michael Symmons Roberts' "Last Words."

Oh, also, I love your poem. I was out having dinner with my friends and surreptitiously checking my flist on my phone when I first read it. After I finished, the first thing I did was poke my friend next to me and tell her, "Oh my God, this is what I mean when I say I don't drive because it makes my anxiety problems go crazy. This is it exactly," and then I forced her to read it there in the diner. She didn't say much about it other than something like, "Oh man, yeah," but I could tell from her face that she got it. I know that wasn't exactly the point of the poem, but really, thank you for that.
