About Me


- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
and whenever
I visit
the store
I bee-line the
stuffed corridor
of poetry
to glimpse
my pristine
prisoner
just to be sure
he’s where I
left him
sharing the shame
of the browsed poets
­—Jeremy Sigler

"New and Used" is a group of color pictures by Marc Joseph of books and records and some of the places where they are sold. Together with editor Damon Krukowski, the artist has assembled a set of essays, short fiction, and poetry by contemporary writers and musicians, all responding to the new and used of their own experience.
