    10 ~ Universe Deck
    Apr 1 2025

    It’s National Poetry Month 2025! So you’ll need your Personal Universe Deck — à la disembodied poet and playwright Michael McClure—to generate your daily poetry prompts! I outline McClure’s complicated formula and share my own break-the-rules method for generating 100 glitzy words that sound fabulous together AND embody my past, present, future and sensual nature. Poetry is for rebels, after all.


    Tune in all April long for daily Breakfast Poetry livestreams — including poetry prompts from my Personal Universe Deck—at:
