Nobody pays me for writing THE BLACKLISTED JOURNALIST column. My sole income is currently a Social Security check. The only reward I get for this column is Email like the following. But Email like the following can often make my day!

this was really neat aronowitz....much easier than schlepping out to Elizabeth and transporting sheaves of old computer paper back to NY and reading it at my leisure and then having it languishing about my dresser drawers forever mixed up with years of photographs so that there is never any room for underwear let alone sweaters or shirts....I could have a whole house full of photographs and people's writing and my grandmother's crochet bag..oh well eat an aspirin every day stay in bed til three...take good care of yourself...it was a great heart attack story...I just want to be buried under a tree skip the plain pine box but I have still not gotten around to picking out the tree. always with love....J ##

Just wanted to tellyou how engrossing your mini-book on Dennis Mc Nally was--I had to WORK to read it, as it downloaded into a Wordpad file that somehow caused each line to be nearly a chapter WIDE. But I couldn't stop reading it. Good stuff. Any other articles lately? What's Dennis up to? Did you like Scully's book? I haven't gotten to it yet.

My sister, who lives in Oakland, just visited the Beat exhibit at the De Young Museum in SF. Said she saw the original scroll of ON THE ROAD. Too bad it's not a traveling exhibition.

Anyway, thanks for the good journalism--blacklisted or otherwise.

Dear Poetry Editor(s),

Please consider the following work(s) for publication in The Blacklisted Journalist.

By way of introduction, I am lead editor for a publication called "Recursive Angel" which looks for poetry, fiction and art on the net. Over the years I have had the good fortune of seeing a number of my works in journals reviews and magazines. Recent pieces have appeared in The Trincoll Journal, Kevat of Brigham Young University and Chronogram. Should any of the following be of interest, please let me know.

The Very Best,
David Hunter Sutherland

===========================

RED

In rutilant reds, our
faith is un-knotting this
wretch of existence,
rash of desire.

The intervening dark is
intervening light and
bodies-the-body
to its final conclusion.

But, did you say Love "
This curio is serial,
spotted under a circus sideshow of
offered elimination.

To be certain and tolerant and loving,
up to this end is
haute couture.

And did you feel Pain "
Blank to a jesters stare,
then shuffle in numb
resignation with

failing kidney, stretching sight, pitted sacrum and
hymning..
the Grace, the Glory !

(or did you cry wolf ") ##
