What others are saying about And I Do Sing..
“Reflecting on the rage of having a lover torn away, Lewis envisions all tomorrow’s parties ended. A personal snapshot of the AIDS epidemic of the 1980s, And I Do Sing expresses the visceral intensity evoked by the loss of a lover, journeying forward to re-embrace life and memory. “ Catherine Jenkins Catherine Jenkins has written two books, a poetry collection blood, love & boomerangs and a novel Swimming in the Ocean, both published by Insomniac Press. “Like the very best rock songs that refuse to stop playing in your mind, the poems in And I Do Sing are powerfully musical and fiercely intelligent. They are helpless, tender, sometimes funny and lit by a rage akin to prayer. Lewis sings not just for himself but for all who have lost someone important for all the wrong reasons.” Ursula Pflug  Ursula Pflug is author of the novel Green Music and the story collection After The Fires http://ursulapflug.ca/index.htm    ___________________________________________

Souvenir Postcards 

 

This "Souvenir" it is a rather silly collection of "postcards" inspired by my recent exhibition, travels and "Where's Waldo" It may also be your opportunity to make your very own Joe Lewis art and if you are inspired you might consider this a Mail Art call, though it will probably end up on-line rather then on a wall. But Hey! who knows?

Wish You Where Here
