Thanks Ethan and Steven for creating this lovely “diner” to honor a great American artist. I enjoyed all these poems.

This is so great, thank you so much for doing this. A wonderful fitting memorial ---- with weird on top. Love it.

So many excellent poems - particularly love the Lynchian cleverness of Matthew Housiaux's poem, the breathtaking beauty of Bethel McGrew's piece and the sheer quality of Michael Walker's.

But all of them are excellent, so good to read and a perfect tribute. Thank you to you all - and a special thank you to Ethan McGuire for all your hard work, talent and efforts.

These are really wonderful poems. I am still processing his death, or "big change" as he would say. I think he is often misunderstood as an artist who was weird for weird's sake. His films are questions, but "what is my answer" is the wrong response. The experience is the answer.
