Happy Damn New Year January 2, 2009

I found today that www.everettemaddox.org is back online after a brief hiatus. Thank you Tom Woolf.
On account of this great occasion and the New Year, consider this:
BREAKFAST
Oh hush up
about the
Future: one
morning it
will appear,
right there on
your breakfast
plate, and you’ll
yell “Take it
back,” pounding
the table.
But there won’t
be any
waiters.
– Everette Maddox, from The Everette Maddox Song Book
or at these independent New Orleans bookstores:
Thanks. A close friend.
What a mess…
The same to you
