Dear Brett,
(Professor Brett Millier of Middlebury College in Vermont
http://www.middlebury.edu/academics/enam/faculty/node/41101),

Thanks so much for your inspiring presentation and reading of Adrienne Rich's poetry at Stanford on May 23rd - "Adrienne Rich: A Celebration of Her Poems" ... https://events.stanford.edu/events/833/83335/ - and very nice to talk with you afterwards. I greatly appreciate your observation that Adrienne Rich's poetry is an "unique lyric voice," and a voice that “demands belief.” I first read Rich's amazing "Diving into the Wreck: Poems 1971-1972" (1973) at Reed College as a student in the early 1980s. And thank you for asking to see 2 or 3 of my poems, after your moving and erudite presentations. Exciting to learn that you write poetry too, and it could be potentially interesting to explore publishing a collection of these in the Poetry Press at World University and School. Would you be open to sharing 2 or 3 poems of yours with me? 

All 3 of my books are Harbin Hot Springs-informed, and inspired too, and my first large "Naked Harbin Ethnography:          
   
Hippies, Warm Pools, Counterculture, Clothing-Optionality & Virtual Harbin" also has a few poems in it, but it is an actual-virtual ethnography (~ http://tinyurl.com/p62rpcg ~ https://twitter.com/HarbinBook ~ http://bit.ly/HarbinBook ~). 

I'm sharing with you 3 poems from my most recent book of poetry, "Winding Road Rainbow: Harbin, Wandering & the Poetry of Loving Bliss" - 

Winding Road … and something like poetry came to me / 12

In the night I traveled north to Harbin / 17

The Poetry Commune at Berkeley / 93

Do you know of any poetry which focuses explicitly on the generation of loving bliss neurophysiology, by any chance? :)
