Dear
Friends,
Recently,
I was delighted to learn that I was nominated for the title of "Poet Populist
of Seattle", and I would be honored if you would be kind enough to consider
reading my work and possibly even voting for me online at www.poetpopulist.org.
The
voting lasts from today until November 4 (when that "other election" is).
I would
say vote early and vote often, although you're only allowed to vote once. But
that doesn't mean you can't tell your friends and everyone you ever met on via
ListServe, MySpace, FaceBook, etc.! Thanks for your consideration, and have a
great quarter!
Mike

Here's a piece I wrote that made it into the ten-year anthology of The
Atlanta Review.
