The final front

Last night I dreamed John Ashbery appeared in my bedroom in the middle of the night, almost as if he'd beamed down, a la Star Trek. He was very polite, but I think he was an alien. He kept holding things up and asking what they were. What is this, he'd say. Over and over.

Weird.

Merry Christmas and happy holidays to everyone. Many of you I miss and wish were here.

Dear God, Is John Ashbery invading all of our dreams? I have already had three different dreams with him in them. Freaky.

But some of you can go screw yourselves!

Sorry...it was just the wording, I couldn't resist...

Merry X-mas, Paul.

--Ali, who has never dreamed of Ashbery

Maybe John Ashbery and Jack Skellington are one and the same! (What's this? What's this?)

Sorry, I couldn't resist, either.

I have never had a John Ashbery dream. You people are strange. :-)
