a short talk on: frank stanford & aprill atkins cameron & william faulkner


Frankie as he was known was a southern swamprat
of a poet he made up words like his hero Billy Faulkner
who taught me the phrase mammalian ludicrosities
in As I Lay Dying mine + Frankie’s favourite where
Dewey Dell + Vardoman wait for Addie Bundren to die

Vardoman confuses his mom with the fish he butchered
for dinner My mother is a fish ! Frankie shot himself
3x in the heart at 29 he lay dying for seconds +his eyes
turned from brown to green Frankie is a Gar !
Winter 2026 …sleeping with the fishes…RIP Frankie & Billy..🐡🐡
