not only is jim mccrary an important poet in my life but he is also a great prose stylist.  just read this piece by mccrary about kathy acker and gregory corso.  mccrary has also recently published a short essay about the poet paul blackburn which you can find on my blog here and at galatea resurrects #19.  and he's ripped thru a few pieces about his home town lawrence, kansas that just killed me.  i'm just sayin'.  i'd love to see him put together these and other pieces mccrary might have around into a big book.
