Current politics and the state of her house provide much fodder for her ruminations in these parlous times. She even won $200 for her poem "Illegal Entry" which is a send-up of the Homeland Security Act. Recent publications include unlikelystories.org, Gypsy, Moria, nthposition's Poems for Madrid, and she is #9 in Furniture Press's PO25centsEM series. She doesn't know what she would write about if the world were a nicer place. E-mail mldeed1@juno.com. Martha's website with links to recent work: www.sporkworld.org/Deed.
