## how can you read the poems siken publishes in spork?

First of all, sorry it took me so long to reply to this message.

Secondly, Siken just writes editor’s notes, but I’ve just published links to all his writings from Spork here.

## Do you know if Richard Siken plans on having his poetry published in another book? I don't mind reading on the internet but I much prefer curling up and reading poetry in paper-form.

His poems have occasionally been published in other books and magazines, but as far as I know there isn’t a specific book plan or anything. He said something in an interview sort of relating to the topic:

> I had the sense that I was expected to produce Crush 2—and there is no Crush 2, couldn’t possibly be aCrush 2 even if I was interested in attempting it—so I started to feel boxed in. But I was still feeling things and thinking things and my hands wanted something to do. So I got out my paints and squeezed the tubes, started pushing the color around without over-thinking it. I shut my mouth and opened my hand. After a while, I found myself thinking things, saying things, related to the paintings. My new poems started there.

Obviously he’s still writing, just not necessarily at a pace that will have another book coming out anytime soon, unfortunately.

## Do you know of any Richard Siken related tattoos floating around out there? I'm thinking of getting one and I need some inspiration.

I have reblogged some, and those are the only ones I know of.

Do any other followers have Siken tattoos? Or just ideas for one?
