    I just happened to stumble upon one of your short stories on Craigslist. What a pleasant and unexpected surprise. The words, the imagery, I could see it all in front of me. Thank you for sharing your art!

    hey frankie, you sound poetic and look like someone who’s lived a bit more then others.

    i’ve got a very cool idea, lets have a poetry/throw down. bye the way i learned that word from the bravo channel watching some food show.

    anyways, you wear a tank top and i am a poet, so ..
    how about meeting at a gym and throwing around some verses.

    maybe we can get the food network to tape it.
