Bio
"Patti has done more here for woman as aggressor than all the Liberation tracts published, and has pushed to the front of the media eye that it is just as much a process (ordeal) of learning to "become" a "woman" as it is for men wrestling with all this ballyhooed "manhood" business. It's this tough chick who walks like Bo Diddley and yet is all women like we've been waiting for so long, a badass who pulls off the feat of being simultaneously idol of women and lust object of men (and women no doubt)"--Lester Bangs review of Patti Smith's "Horses"

"Come to me, said the world
This is not to say
That it spoke exact sentences
But rather that I perceived beauty in such a manner."
--"Averno," Louise Gluck

"I'd have the immediacy of a bad movie,
not just a sleeper, but also the big,
overproduced first-run kind. I want to be
at least as alive as the vulgar."
--"My Heart," Frank O'Hara
