Will Cole
I'm from the East Coast, have lived in SoCal and now Northern California for some years. I've been writing quite awhile, published in 1992 in a literary quarterly:  "Suspicious Humanist," vol. 2, #2, (20 pages.)  Best job:  fm on air personality on a now defunct station, "Evening Eclectic" music show, and a weekly poetry reading show.  I played jazz and free/improv I enjoyed.  Read Wallace Stevens, John Ashbery, Kenneth Koch, etc. and commented on the poems. I have read once at a local coffee house.  Love the Bay Area, wouldn't want to be anywhere else.

::: Part of the Time :::

We are so many
different places
part of the time.

Different places
define how we act, present
ourselves part of the time.

We are so many
turning about to hide
the others we show to no one.

I hold the hand
mirror behind my head
to show my leaving the others.

Alone with no one else to please,
no one else to be, releases
the others, and they leave.
