Sturgeon's Law

I don't often dream about poetry (though occasionally an image or line will come out of a dream). Anyway, the nuts and bolts stuff about poetry in my life doesn't enter into the dreams for the most part. However, a couple nights ago, I had a dream that Gabriel Gudding sent me some translations for The Eleventh Muse. The dream was almost surely based on the fact that I recently accepted a couple translations by my poetry pal David Keplinger for next year's Muse, but I'm not sure how Gabe entered into it, or if he even does translations. There is a mild resemblance between Keplinger and the pictures I've seen of Gabe, but mostly I think it's because A Defense of Poetry is awesome, and I'd find it very cool if he did ever send poems.

There's a real, long post coming. I'm about 75% done with it right now, so it'll be up by the weekend. I think it's fun.
