Shabdaguchha
A Tribute from Shabdaguchha A Tribute from Cross-Cultural Communications |
Everybody loves me now I'm dead. My books have never been so widely read. My admirers have never been so widespread. Everybody loves me now I'm dead. I pounded pavement for nigh on thirty years, Collecting rejection slips, back-kicks, and sneers. ... They're writing exposes on me, and doctoral analyses. -- Robert Dunn |
Robert Dunn (1959 - 2008) He was truly one of those rarities--a poet who was not just for himself. We will miss his fine wit, his high level of integrity, and his genuine friendship. -- Stanley H. Barkan A poet less is a wrold less bright. -- Syed Shamsul Haq The poetry scene will never be the same without him. -- D. H. Melhem We are deeply shocked by the news of the death of this fine man who was a long time friend of Shabdaguchha family. We promise to keep his memory alive in the world of poetry. --Hassanal Abdullah |
When I was a kid, my Mother told me the sky Was the limit when it came to my career. She meant, "Be a C.P.A., A surgeon or a croupier." Bet she'd have a cow if she knew how I now earn my beer. -- Robert Dunn |
