LozeLoze (book)
Print: $11.22 Download: FREE An evening's interlude away from the puppets led me to the Obecni Dum smack dab in the center of Prague and an amazingly 19th century-eque Carl Orffish evening of real wonder and delight. This is the only remaining chapter of the original COMMENTS WITHOUT COSMOS, and definitely the only book I ever wrote in its entirety whilst sitting my tuchus down in velvety luxury in a beautiful concert hall in good ol' Eastern Europe, listening to angels sing and saying Thank You God for all of that.

Print: $12.30 Download: FREE An innocent visit to a family grave sends my mind a'reeling back in the 1994. I couldn't understand why the Mother and Father had plots next to the daughter-in-law and her small children, and yet the son was nowhere in sight. And why did the daughter's grave read "Saved Through The Grace of God." I mean, this is a funny thing to happen in the 19th century, and even more fun to think about at the end of the 20th. And not as creepy as it sounds. Meanwhile, Michelle eats red beans and rice, somewhere between Hollywood and North Carolina.

Print: $9.50 Download: FREE MY FAVORITE FIFTEEN PRESIDENTS is simply the most I can say about the American Presidents without going over my word limit of, say, 50 words or dealing with anything of import or anything political whatsoever, unless, with for example Abraham Lincoln, love is political. This is a restriction that can be a challenge, at times. And that's why I avoided, say, Ronald Reagan and George Washington in MY FAVORITE FIFTEEN PRESIDENTS. I did, however, as I mentioned before, mention Abe Lincoln, but only when he was going to bed, and only at the end of the book.

Print: $16.49 Download: FREE This bad boy clocks in at a mighty 226 pages – a mach 1 of no uncertain g force–at least for me. It is uncontestably the longest Wavy know to man–long and luxurious, though seldom silky smooth. There are slight fairy tales told, loads of food and tender feelings and thoughts as well as interviews. That's right! An interview! And with a farmer! Just one, though.

FREDFRED (book)
Print: $9.99 Download: FREE What can I say of FRED? It is an homage and loving thought tossed at my good friend, Fred, whose name, actually, is not, of course, Fred. It's Gabe. Meanwhile, were any book of mine to be counted as a friend, it would be FRED. It recounts maxims, Italian movies, chows, $1 weiners, perilous adventures where very little happens and breezy reflections on what is and is not valuable – like friendship and unanswered questions and Anthony 'Tony' Quinn. And like a good friend, it snuggles. But more than an ordinary friend–FRED is a buddy–the kind of book I would take fishing, were I to fish, which I don't, as I am afraid to death of worms, which haunt me in my dreams.

XipoXipo (book)
Print: $9.99 Download: $1.25 If you take all the dates in the world and put them together, you get Xipo, only with most of the details left out, and ending with the sound of a distant vrroom vrroom of a faraway car driving into an even farther away distance which can feel very haunting or even a little sad.

WeedWeed (book)
Print: $5.99 Download: FREE MICRO DINGS were a phenomenon in the 101 wing ding household during the '90's. Delightful morsels that weren't really books, weren't really poems, and weren't really long. Hence the MICRO. With Christine (2009) the age of the MICRO was fini, replaced and rightly so by the MAXI MICRO. Enjoy WEED, this dying breed while it still isn't dead: delights include goofy illustration of W.S. Burroughs, Sad Tale of Sunday in the Park, and The Pancakes of Loneliness Complete, all in a length less lengthy than this description.

Print: $8.99 Download: FREE Do I hate everything in this book? No, I don't. In fact I even made a separate little book for 'Chinese Proverbs' (called 'Pillows') and 'Memories' was the first poem in 'Make It Wavy.' But I can say I hated the rest – until I edited it again, twice. Then I said, 'Not bad, not bad at all.' And then I edited it one more time and said, 'But not really good, either.' I recommend that you read this book once, and only edit it twice.

Be forewarned that my favorite holidays include Arbor Day, Adult Day, and–for reasons that I still can't properly explain since the Bastille no longer exists–Bastille Day. If you are looking for an Ode to Cinco de Mayo, look no further. It isn't here, sadly. Seriously. No estå.

Print: $12.99 Download: $1.25 The second in the Wavy trilogy of smooth-sailing poetry collections from 1995-2007. I took up this project kicking and screaming, literally, really super fussy and not easy to live or be with kind of thing, but somehow, now, I like it. Seriously. Not sure why, though, I seem to make everything in the wavy world so, well, orangey.

Print: $12.00 Download: FREE There's nothing like boarding school to bring out the latent Gerard Depardieu lover in all of us–who knows why. But after a few mind-bending winters, a GQ magazine or two, scary girls riding motorcycles and pretentious teachers and pretentious students and some not tasty butternut squash laced with French Cinema, then you got, well, despair. Loneliness. Mistranslations. Everything but mostly nothing. High School. Love. Par excellence–à la Depardieu.

Ah, to be skinny and write songs, and yet, on the other hand, to eat strawberries and not worry about quality, other than the fleshy fruit quality of strawberries. Ah, to be wavy and do both...

Print: $9.99 Download: FREE On July 15, 1974, Christine Chubbuck, a Sarasota newscaster, took her own life during a morning news broadcast.
She had desired a life that she could imagine for others but not for herself; she had believed in her own judgment, and her judgment had told her that she would always be alone. Perhaps as a relief from such thoughts, or from a satisfaction of her new place in history, or for other reasons that no one will ever know, one of the last things Christine did that morning, and in front of the camera, was smile.

Print: $13.00 Download: FREE A short series of prose poems written on holiday in the winter of 1995 in search of Florida's Devil's Punchbowl. Along the way, clowns are discovered, snooty art is seen, murderers do murdering things, eel grass commences, manatees are considered, honeybuns are relished and icy pools find a place in our hearts. Nevertheless, no Punchbowl–Devil's or otherwise–is revealed.
This volume was the very first Wing Ding committed to paper.

And let's not forget the choice of bicycles declared ("Hercules") the choice of titans chosen (Atlas, for God's sake) and the inclusion of the words 'Pinot Grigio' and even Señor Richmond on a naked romp, all free and dangly. Oh. And there's more, too.
