"The family kept a dress from each of the sisters."
I was taught that a line of poetry should stand alone.
No. I don't believe in such isolation.

Watch Your Words Dance
I have the honor of sharing a small 6'x5' space at the Roger Smith Hotel's Window at 125 tomorrow with dancer Deborah Lohse. I'll be doing words and she'll be doing dance, and hopefully our two arts will find a way to interact.
I have an hour and I want your words to offer to Deborah. Starting at 4pm, today, March 5th, tweet a line to me @faceturnsread. You are more than welcome (please come!) to the Roger Smith Hotel to watch it in person, OR you can watch the livestream: http://goo.gl/rzL1i
