Ra Gabriel translated into Espanol by Andy Riverbed (que buena honda!)

Check out poet Andy Riverbed reading translations of my poetry (Spanish and English). Also, don't forget to click the newest issue of litchaos.com where you'll find an interview with Andy that explains such mysteries as to why Andy was once called 1910.

You can pre-order Damaged, Riverbed's book, at the Coatlism Bookstore. It's due out January 1st, 2009 but we hope they'll be available earlier than that. They make a great xmas present!

Doppelgänger (Ra!ph-Michael Gabriel Chiaia)

Many of you know this already, Ra! is the alter-ego of Ra!ph. Ra! is a bit racier, a bit more aggressive, Ralph is more polished, more mature. Well, that was the idea in the beginning and a chance to big up each other. Now, as the years have wound together and smell like potpourri, they have decided to re-unite. The melding is taking place on madswirl.com and elsewhere. I just wanted to let you in on the little secret.

All the best,
Ra! Gabriel
