Shippy can do no wrong in my eyes.

[Allie Yantz]

Great poetry - by one of my former professors! He's a swell guy. His writing is on the abstract side.

[Lynsey]

He's one of my BFFs. Buy it and read it.

some of these hang together much better than others for me. at times the accumulations don't seem to add up to a greater whole. but when they do, it's startling and lovely.
