Poet Joe Wenderoth talks to Butthole Surfer Gibby Haynes
In the new issue of the online magazine Gigantic, the two gentlemen of letters talk about literary things:
GH: if you cloned yourself would you let/make a clone sleep with your wife? explain.
JW: I would make him sleep with my wife, I think, in many cases. It would free me up, give me more time for prayer.

That would be something . . .
