Anti-Apocalyptic

No Excuses
A tractor beam, the rapture—
no one and nothing is coming
for you. You’d better
finish the dishes, get back
to your overdue homework.

Hi Amanda,
As a subscriber, I love your poems. They never seem to post when I'm in a bad mood. And that's a lot of the time. So, I like it. I'm assuming your speaking voice is peaceful, but reading this poem, I think it would be very intriguing (sp?) would you dub a piece by Bach under a reading of several of your poems. Of course, I call dibs for publication on listenlight
Actually, my on again off again friend Phil Primeau picked up the alpha signal of your poems in the issue 01, & talked about your peaceableness juxtaposed before vaguely apocalyptic phantasmagory.
What do you think about this?
You do have an MFA. I know you can splice two audio tracks
All best,
J
