DeLana R.A. Dameron: It's been a while
http://loneriverwalk.blogspot.com/2009/12/its-been-while.html
DeLana R.A. Dameron. Thursday, December 17, 2009. It's been a while. I've been a bit busy with life in New York to post. I would look at my blog and think: man, I haven't posted in a long time.and then go on to do the various things that someone going to grad school and working two part time jobs and internship and fellowship has to do. yes. busy. That is also to say, save for my two pretty big readings earlier this semester in South Carolina, readings in the city of my poetry have also come to a stop.

DeLana R.A. Dameron: December 2009
http://loneriverwalk.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
DeLana R.A. Dameron. Monday, December 21, 2009. Since today is my last full day in the city in 2009, I wanted to think through some things, if you'll allow me. Wow! What a wonderful year this has been, what a ride! This spring, around March, was exciting because I had what I called a "life transplant". I remember sitting in my first apartment in Harlem and trying to find a new apartment, and I received a phone call from an unknown number, and it was NYU telling me that I got in to the MFA program! Book L...

DeLana R.A. Dameron: March 2009
http://loneriverwalk.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html
DeLana R.A. Dameron. Tuesday, March 31, 2009. Cooling board: a long playing poem. Sunday I got to hang out with Mitchell L.H. Douglas. For the day. He had a reading early in Harlem, which I had to miss, but he was really close to my place so I met him at the end of his reading and then we walked over to The Perch and hung out for a bit. We opened up some spirits and toasted our new books, and exchanged books. Oh how times change! And here we are! Links to this post. Sunday, March 29, 2009. 7 It is Written.

DeLana R.A. Dameron: Radiator rattles in the corner
http://loneriverwalk.blogspot.com/2009/10/radiator-rattles-in-corner.html
DeLana R.A. Dameron. Wednesday, October 14, 2009. Radiator rattles in the corner. I want to write a more writerly post here, since that is what I sort of started this blog for. I mentioned last blog that I started this bigger project at school, and I'm most excited about it. Books I'm reading that are inspiring me:. Poet in New York. And indirectly, Reyes'. Poeta en San Francisco). Most of all the books). Does Your House Have Lions? Gryphon's mother makes a promis to God. Gryphon and the flashing flames.

DeLana R.A. Dameron: July 2009
http://loneriverwalk.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
DeLana R.A. Dameron. Tuesday, July 28, 2009. Today is my first full day at the residency: The Constance Saltonstall Foundation for the Arts. I left almost immediately after I finished my summer program for my regular job. It was a whirlwind, really. And a lot of debriefing that needed to be done, but I couldn't really do because I was trying to pack and clean and get ready to uproot myself for 30 days. I have no phone reception here. That can be either good or bad. Look for minor updates here and there.

Green Hill: Poems by Virginia Dodenhoff
http://strayshot.blogspot.com/2014/10/poems-by-virginia-dodenhoff.html
Thursday, October 23, 2014. Poems by Virginia Dodenhoff. Someone told me once that the reason we live on this earth is to find happiness, bliss, nirvana. People say that happiness does not exist. But my friend said he found it the other day when he looked into the eyes of the girl he loved. Some kid was laughing. Is that not happiness? It’s letting go. This world is hard. We do what we don’t want to do. That’s how the world works. Life isn’t easy. Life isn’t fair. Those who work their asses off win.

Read Red: A Tale for the Time Being
http://readwritered.blogspot.com/2014/01/a-tale-for-time-being.html
Ruminations on the reading life of a communist. Looking at words through class-struggle lenses. Thursday, January 16, 2014. A Tale for the Time Being. My Year of Meats. By Ruth Ozeki is one of my all-time favorite novels. I also liked (though didn't love) her second one, All Over Creation. A Tale for the Time Being. Onward to a red reading year! In the original version of this post I erroneously referred to Ozeki studying to be a monk. She studied to be and in fact is a priest. A Tale for the Time Being.
