Loafman, Patrick

PATRICK LOAFMAN occasionally throws complete essays onto the floor where they shatter into glittering shards that he sweeps up and dumps back on the page, and in doing so, he imagines that this makes him an artist. He has faith that the mind of the reader contains ample glue. He lives in Port Angeles; his backyard is Canada; he plays a homemade gourd banjo and still is awed by the magic within a slinky.
