      I HAVE NEVER PUT MY FINGERTIPS TO MY SLIGHTLY OPENED MOUTH AFTER READING ANYTHING BY DANIEL BAILEY. That’s probably true. I want this book so badly.

      that gravestone doesn’t even say Daniel Bailey, it says Bailey M. Daniel, that is a different person. I was led to believe this collection was being released posthumously, which would make it 100 x more important. Now I don’t know what to believe.

      I am reading The Drunk Sonnets now and am incorporating it into my syllabus for this term.

      “GOING TO PARTIES CAN BE A LOT LIKE SLAVERY
      YOU HAVE TO TALK TO PEOPLE YOU CAN’T STAND
      AND MAKE THEM THINK YOU LIKE THEM

      YOU HAVE TO DANCE AND PRETEND TO LIKE IT
      AND IF YOU DON’T DO THESE THINGS
      YOU WILL GET PUNCHED IN THE FACE”

      What freshman wouldn’t react to the slavery part? And then discuss that metaphor? Yes! Can’t wait!
