Tiafoe It is sad that Tiafoe was on early for us here in the States, so I didn’t see much of his match. Wimbledon *has* been distracting me from work, and it is only the 1st day of 1st round matches...

video This YouTube video posted 5 years ago today makes me wistful not only for my once regular multi-media performance art shows, like “{Stripped}” on 6/7/05 at the Café with projected artwork, but this image of me in my MG also makes me wistful (because we just sold it) — but at least this poem, “We Listened”, was not only in this show, but also in the collaboration with music in the iTunes. CD set and the Amazon book “Fusion”.

I think the larger roots of my sweet potato decided to bully my planted potato sprouting eyes and squash out any growth of the actual potato roots that I planted in my Jay’s potato chip bag. I mean, I get it, survival of the fittest, but I think it’s interesting that my next potato crop out of my Jay’s potato chip bag might be only sweet potatoes... We’ll see what happens with this latest “crop.”

Janet Topics like women’s rights post-Roe v. Wade are as relevant now as they were 2 years ago today, the day after my “Fighting for Justice” live at Wednesday Night Poetry in Hot Springs, AR. This was a great state to share this poetry with, and wear a shawl with wire hangers while I carry the Justice’s scales of war over liberty, and a great place to kick off my “TestamentCyberWit poetry book tour.

“Digital creators” still send me friend requests on Facebook. Stop it. Let me paste here a paragraph from my “About” listing in the “details about you” section. Get the message, and leave me alone.

If you’re a “digital creator” as a profession, do NOT ask to be my Facebook friend. I do not believe in paying someone to hype my social image. Your attempt to make money at my expense is an insult. Don’t waste my time to make me discover who you are before I reject your Facebook friendship request.

Every Event of the Year (Volume One: January-June) Enjoy the poem “Voice and Word” (written 6/25, the calendar day the day George Michael was born, and the day Michael Jackson passed away), included in the Janet Kuypers Scars Publications poetry book “Every Event of the Year (Volume one: January-June):

I always thought I knew what I wanted.
When you’re young, you get this image
in your head of being adored by everyone,
and even if I was too young to know my
talent, this desire took over my soul.

And now everywhere I go I can take
the stage and astonish anyone with all
the notes I hit and all the words I speak.
And after a set people would tell me
that I remind them of Janice Joplin —

and people come to me to tell me
that my words changed the actions,
and changed their lives. I had done it.
People loved listening to the sound
of my voice, I had made a difference

in people’s lives... so, I don’t know why
I now feel like nothing is ever enough.
After a few life-rattling, life threatening
events in my life, I could not shake
the pain, so I tried to use this pain

to share in my work, and the masses
appreciated it, but I think in the end
they were all tired of the sob stories
and wanted to only be entertained.
You tell me I have talent, and I do,

but I am not your plaything, and I
don’t want to be a corporate puppet.
Let me have my respite from hunters
who want to turn my talent to nothing.
And after I’m gone, try to remember

my voice, my words.

All of the poems in the show were released in the cc&d bonus “Poetic Shades of Chocolate” chapbook, and, because this was during my final year living in Chicago (filled with many poetry features), all of these poems also appear in the Scars Publications poetry book “a year long Journey”.

cc&d This is a letter for all poets to send poetry to cc&d magazine.  We want to fill the front section of future issues of cc&d with poetry, so we want poetry from you!

(If you don’t have the email address for cc&d, you can find it at the main web page for the mag: https://scars.tv/ccd/ online anytime, and the guidelines are also one click away from that page too.)

Many writers send longer stories, so prose fills our upcoming issues faster than poetry. The front section of cc&d is always the poetry section, so we want our poet friends to submit their poetry to cc&d so that poetry can take a larger portion of ALL future issues of cc&d! Thanks for being a part of the cc&d community, and we look forward to reviewing your (and your friends’) poetry to cc&d magazine to fill future issues of cc&d!

—Janet Kuypers, editor of cc&d

It’s necessary to iron your buildings every once in a while.

Heat-activated glue under the wood on my door keeps my Chicago skyscrapers framework in place before it is stained, which I can’t wait to see completed, because I think this will become a great birthday present.

facebook profile picture for Janet Kuypers Janet Kuypers
I designed this last March on my computer to figure out how to get the Sears (I mean Willis), and the Hancock (or 875 N. Michigan Ave., whatever its new name is now) and the Smurfit building and Big Red all into 1 undersized door — and I evenb measured in inches where all of the wood pieces go. I said I wanted this done for my birthday, and this is based on the measurements engineering-Janet did. I think the black staining will be done tonight. I showed this post pic to Fish yesterday, and she said she loved it, but I hope staining the wood darker will make it look more cohesive on my door. (I also might want a glow-in-the-dark paint to highlight the diamond like the lights on the Smurfiut building, but we’ll see what I can eventually come up with...)

23 enigma unused covers Neither of these cover ideas that I shared 9 years ago today were used for the v263 23rd anniversary issue of cc&d, “the 23 enigma” — I used Nazi soldiers with rocket scientist Wernher Von Braun (since his birthday is on the 23rd).

facebook profile picture for Janet Kuypers Janet Kuypers
the 23 enigma I’m glad I chose this one... It was reviewed by professional literary scouts in 2017 (book scouts are asked by traditional publishers, book store owners, member of the academe, and book organizations to review books), and out of 6,000 books published from 2010-2016, “the 23 enigma” was one of only 20 books that received an “A” evaluation. Of these books, “the 23 enigma” was chosen as one of 10 books to be showcased at the 2017 Frankfurt International Book Fair in Germany (as well as the 2017 American Association of School Librarians in Phoenix, AZ, USA, and the 2017 Beijing International Book Fair in Beijing, China).

Janet and John with everyone at pub 525 I saved a coaster from my visit to Pub525 11 years ago today... It was my way to save these memories, and now I have a chair-rail of beer coasters in our pool table room, and I like that this coaster is one of them.

Every Event of the Year (Volume One: January-June) Today is Juneteenth, I would like to share my poem with you that appears in the Scars Publications book “Every Event of the Year (Volume One: January-June)”:

Feeling of False Ownership

They say that they gave us human rights months ago
(isn’t it funny, having to pass laws to give us rights —
don’t we have inalienable rights? Where did they go?)...

but still, the farther south you traveled in this country,
the harder it was for white men to treat us as human.
In the Midwest, all the way to Chicago, we were equals,

but it seems that Texas, in particular, didn’t want to shake
their feeling of false ownership, and we had to pay for it.
Maybe it took too long for Lincoln’s Proclamation to reach

Texas, but it wasn’t until June 19th when Union General
Gordon Granger read “General Order No. 3” in Galveston,
that stated that we were free. General order number 3.

Those four words are music to my ears, thought I’m still
blown away that a war had to be fought, proclamations
had to be made across all of these states to proclaim

something we’ve known in our hearts, our souls, forever.
When this day finally came to us, call it on Juneteenth,
it really did lift each and every voice up to sing, hallelujah.

Jay’s potato chip bag sprouts I thought this morning that I hadn’t watered my potato and sweet potato roots that I planted into my Jay’s potato chip bag recently. Before watering, I looked in the bag and saw them starting to grow! (I *think* the larger sprout is the sweet potato because the roots from the sweet potato eyes were larger when planted, so I guess the smaller sprouts are regular potatoes...)

Dark Matter: the Mind of Janet Kuypers, 2009 I have just been reading articles that dark matter does not exist, that it’s actually how time is sped by the clustering of galaxies, explaining the inflated acceleration of the Universe (a theory I’ve supported before scientists jumped on this dark matter bandwagon when they couldn’t explain a varying “Hubble constant”). But what DOES exist is the book “Dark Matter: the Mind of Janet Kuypers”, because the poem “Scars 1997” appears in the Janet Kuypers poetry book “Dark Matter: the Mind of Janet Kuypers” from Scars Publications, which was released as both a 6"x 9" paperback book and a 5½" x 8½" paperback book from the Lulu printer:

Testament Enjoy the Janet Kuypers book “Testament” from CyberWit. In 4 parts, part 1 (and over half the book) is pro-women’s-rights post-Roe v. Wade overturning poems. Part 2 deals with the touchy subject of suicide, closing with parts 3 and 4, which reflect the 1st book of the Old Testament & the last book in the New Testament — & is available on Amazon.

Janet I know that over half of my CyberWit book “Testament” is pro-women’s rights after the suppression of women’s rights after Roe v. Wade was overturned (and I saw the trigger laws enacted first-hand in Texas), but other sections of the book even cover poetry related to the Holy Bible, and this YouTube video I shared 2 years ago today is when I got the chance to read some of my Genesis poems when I was literally outside at the remains of the pool of the Branch Davidian compound near the 30-year anniversary of the Waco siege for the 2023 Poetry Bomb.

I have been honored in recent years to have poetry books accepted for publication by CyberWit, which has allowed me to stretch my literary tendons into issues not normally covered in Scars Publications volumes. When it comes to women’s issues, I’ve written a lot over the years, so it might have been easy to come up with a collection of only older writings, but seeing this post from 3 years ago today highlights women’s issues even in COVID times reading the first poem in the CyberWit book “Shattering the Glass Ceiling”, “No One Reports for Women” (about woman & reproductive rights & COVID), during the “Poetic License global open mic 5/1/22” (which was also a perfect precursor to women’s reproductive issues, that take center stage in part one of the next CyberWit book, “Testament”).

Janet & John Bar Louie started in Chicago before Janet got her first Chicago apartment. Janet  couldn’t remember if she had a bar Louie coaster from when we’ve been there so we thought we’d go to this place instead.  they didn’t have a coaster so I thought I’d settle for this double excellent decadent chocolate cake. I thought, 1100 calories for a piece of cake? No way... then it arrived. I know Janet wants to run off with the chairs they have here but I told her they won’t fit in her Volt. She still wants to try...

I’m glad C Ra McGuirt gave me a Tag Team wrestling belt, and although I’m sad we never did the Tag Team poetry book together as we planned, I’m glad that I can plan to USE that belt for a Warhol-style future cover for my next protest-inspired poetry book, a hopeful release from CyberWit press in 2026.

Janet 20250426 The book predominantly highlighted during my “Restoring the Nature of the Universe” Salado mini-feature on April 26th was the CyberWit Janet Kuypers poetry book “The Universe is in Your Hands” — and 50% of all the proceeds from sales of that book that day went to donations to restore the Tablerock theater.

2012 poetry bomb I tried to share past Poetry Bombs, including my 2012 Poetry Bomb, literally AT Chicago L Train stops (that I shared during COVID-19 social distancing 5 years ago). The premise of the Poetry Bomb is to read poetry not at open mics, but wherever you are. So THIS year, I’ll be at Prost Alehouse with new poetry readings and poetry from Janet Kuypers’ CyberWit books via Facebook live video feeds and YouTube videos for later release — so spread the poetic word on Sunday, 4/27/25 @ 3:30PM CST!

JK Since I did the annual Poetry Bomb in Chicago, I have found different places to read poetry. This post from 9 & 2 years ago today (that I also shared last year) is at the Bagdad Cemetery, near the filming of some of *Texas Chainsaw Massacre*, where I read poetry for the 2016 Poetry Bomb. BUT THIS SATURDAY I am a chosen feature during the 17th Annual Poetry Festival at the Tablerock Poetry Festival on 4/26/25, during the first ~2 hours of the noon - 6:00 PM event in Salado, TX, then Sunday afternoon (3:30PM CST) is the “2024 Poetry Bomb” (where you pick a place people normally don’t hear poetry to perform it for a few hours). I will read at Prost Alehouse with new poetry readings and poetry from Janet Kuypers’ CyberWit books via Facebook live video feeds and YouTube videos for later release. But first things first, COME SATURDAY @ 12:00 (where 50% of all my book sales will go toward helping renovate the TableRock Theater) to Greenfield Coffee Cocktails Barrels Brew, 555 Pace Park Road, Salado, Texas, and I’ll see you there!

Hoppy Hoppy Joy Joy 2 labels While the “Hoppy Hoppy Joy Joy” is fermenting, I wanted to change the logo from its original design, stacked like

Hoppy
Hoppy
Joy Joy.

Maybe I’ll make it small-caps, and John suggested making the “H” span two lines (for both ‘hoppy’s, as it were). I designed them yesterday while John battled a migraine (IPAs would give me a migraine too), but I would love it if people provide their opinion on which label design type they prefer. Let me know your thoughts. (I’d love it if anyone could name all 4 Ren & Stimpy references in this label too...)

John’s been brewing all morning and offered me a taste of the IPA batch before the hops were added (translation: this is no-alcohol sugar water). This will become the “Hoppy Hoppy Joy Joy”, but right now it is just the “Joy Joy”, which is joyful to me because I don’t like hoppy beers (and I thought I’d taste it out of the Carboys Austin homer brewers taster glass, since that group no longer exists).

From the original song, he said, “I don’t think you’re happy enough - that’s right!”, and I use that on the label too. In the orig. song he even says, “isn’t that cute, a fly marrying a bumblebee”, so I have both a fly and a bumblebee on the flower in the label.) I’m going to edit the label this week too - maybe small-cap the “Hoppy Hoppy“, & on John’s suggestion, maybe try making 1 large H to share for both words, we’ll see, and I’ll share when I do it...

(I know, I know, this poem has appeared in many other books, from “Close Cover Before Striking” to “Rising to the Surface” to “It All Comes Down” to “S&M” to “Chapter 38 v1” to “A Wake-Up Call From Tradition” to “finally, literature for the snotty and elite (v1)” to “Evolution” to “Taking Poetry to the Streets” to even more, but a FULL-COLOR book’s cool...)

I know my 2025 appearance in Chicago is 1 week later than last year, so I don’t know if it would be the last week or a bonus week for Beach Poets, but I hope Cathleen Ann Schandelmeier & Poetry in Chicago will have time for me on 8/24/25.

Janet, the Branch It was fascinating to go to the Branch Davidian Compound and to be there so close to the anniversary of the Waco siege. While visiting 2 years ago today, I read both my Genesis poetry and Revelation poetry from sections 3 and 4 of the CyberWit book “Testament” on site for videos released during the 2023 Poetry Bomb... Seeing this inspires me to set aside previously unread poetry from different sections of “Testament” to read at the 2025 Poetry Bomb on 4/27/25 @ 3:30 pm CST.

door design for Chiucago bldgs Years ago, John cut rounded edges off of 2x4s for a table, and the cut-off the thin and rounded strips had such a beautiful wood grain that I said we had to keep these 1½" wide rounded edges. I kept these pieces of wood for years, and then I saw somebody decorate a plain door with art. And I thought, hey, I could put a collage of Chicago high-rises on the door inside my bathroom... Now I have a thin black base to put it all on, and I have figured out the proportions for the Sears tower, the Hancock building, the Smurfit building and the later edition of Big Red. (You know, proportions, for 1½" wide trips of wood for a door design.) All of the wood strips will be stained black (and the wood strips for Big Red should have a red stain as well), so that when all this work is done, you should just be able to see the essence for the idea of buildings on a black plane.

video On 3/21/17, I hosted a World Poetry Day event in Austin (and even released a chapbook “Short World Poems on World Poetry Day” poems performed at this event). This YouTube video I shared 8 years ago today contains poetry from countries around the planet — five of the poems performed here, “Get His Product to Town”, “Ever Consumed Goat”, “Moros y Christianos”, “Building Houses out of Pallets”, & “Everyone Has a Choice” all appear in the book “Post-Apocalyptic”.

video While hosting my Chicago open mic “The Café Gallery” on 4/9/14, I read my poem “Against My Will”. I uploaded this YouTube video 11 years ago today and shared it again 9 years ago today on Facebook... I edited this poem into “Against My Will (2022)”, and this half-Lithuanian could get it’s translation as “Prieš Mano valią” so that both versions of this poem would appear in the CyberWit 2022 book “Shattering the Glass Ceiling”.

video After seeing this post from 3 years ago today of YouTube video from my 1st poetry feature in Hot spring, AR, “Behind the Mask” on 3/23/22, I just realized that my final poem in this feature, “Knowingly Live, Purposely Live” from the book “Every Event of the Year (Volume Two: July-December)”, is PERFECT for the final poem I’ll have the honor to perform in my mini-feature at the Tablerock Poetry Festival 4/26/25 (the last Saturday in April), during the first half of the noon-6:00 PM event for the benefit for repairs to Salado’s Tablerock Theater (Entry by Donation). I’m sure I’ll look for poetry from other current books to reflect communing and rebuilding on what’s naturally right, and this Thoreau-themed poem is a perfect finalé for this poetry performance — and thank you again to Thom Woodruff for this opportunity!

Janet, Uno, eclipse It wasn’t from my solar eclipse photography 1 year ago today but from 2017 that I got better photos of the total solar eclipse... Which looks great with John’s photo of the moon (that was used on the cover of the 4/25 v356 cc&d book “Touching the Moon”) for the (eventual) Mustang Merlot from NXMW @ Walking Seed Brewing.

Jay’s potato plant I can commiserate with this post from 1 year ago today because THIS year’s “harvest” of potatoes in a Jay’s potato chip bag tipped over from it’s own weight weeks ago and is this potato plant (which WILL grow potatoes) is nestled among a pineapple plant *which won’t grow any pineapples), a spider plant (not for growing spiders) and bamboo in my office.

Silver I told John about my getting a “like” on my “X” response post from a (assumedly fake) “Elon Musk CEO” about an (assumedly fake) “Elon Musk News” post on Twitter/X. John then told me that this billionaire CEO who is running the DOGE government agency apparently *does* spend an inordinate amount of time surfing Facebook and X, so who knows, it could be a real response. So, if Elon Musk is really asking about $2 bills, I could ask him about stacks of 100-year-old silver dollars (with coins I posted on Facebook 9/20/19 in my Periodic Table in Twitter poem “Silver from Vegas” — that yes, I posted on Twitter/X too)...

Stabity Stabity Stab Stab Stab Back in the day, people might have known me as the death poet (for all the writing about nearly being killed, or the death of loved ones), so when I saw a flyer at Damen North and Milwaukee for a band in this typeface that said “Stabity Stabity Stab Stab Stab”, I HAD to make a death poem book with that name. Scars Publications released the book that I shared in a post 8, 9, & 13 years ago today (that I even shared in a post just over 2 months ago (on 2/5/25) I *had* to spread the news again.

I always root for tennis players who went to my college, but this is the first time that I’m rooting for a U of I grad tennis player that is also from the United States.

I mean, yay for Kevin Anderson from South Africa who went to my college, and yay for Aleksandar Vukic from Australia who also went to UIUC, but double-PLUS yay for Aleksandar Kovacevic from the USA who went to U of I too!

Janet I saved the wrappers from many short-time-only plant-based meal options from fast food restaurants (like this McPlant from 3 years ago today). The restaurants no longer carry these vegan options, but they took up so much space above my fridge that I made a giant poster collage with them.

facebook profile picture for Janet Kuypers Janet Kuypers
vegan poster McDonald’s, Pizza Hut, KFC, & Jimmy Dean stopped their vegan offerings. White Castle is in Illinois (not TX), Panda Express only has a select few locations reinstating their vegan meals, Native Foods has only 1 location in the South Loop now, Austin’s Plow Burger is now only through Uber Eats, & Austin restaurants like Mother’s Cafe, Beer Plant, Citizen, & Counter Culture closed. (So there̵s a lot of vegan cred on my 2/22/25 poster.)

, We haven’t retouched the pergola stain since we installed it 8 years ago (and you can tell it’s just worn wood and not that shocking orange-red), but in the past few years we’ve grown Mustang grapes on our pergola, so it’s covered with vines now (and yes, they’re starting to bloom this spring already). We collected Mustang grapes from this mini “vineyard” to mix with the Merlot we started this spring, but the Mustang batch went bad (so this year, we just bottled & kegged our “Blood Moon Merlot”). I plan to pick Mustang grapes from our “harvest” this year to generate the Mustand Merlot for the next season (& the label’s done).

Mustang Merlot I planned to use my horse photo with John’s blood moon and Milky Way photos, but when the Mustang grapes died, I pulled the horse from the (now) “Blood Moon Merlot”. For the (future) Mustang Merlot, I used John’s Milky Way photo & moon photo that’s on the cover of the 4/1/25 cc&d book released today, “Touching the Moon”, and combined it with my horse photo & my solar eclipse photography. I love this label, and now I can’t wait until the Mustang Merlot is made next season.

Janet & John How cool to see American Kovacevic playing so well against Etcheverry at the U.S. Men’s Clay Court Championships tennis match tonight, and how double-plus-cool that Kovacevic went to UofI — I don’t know if I should wear tennis gear or Illini gear for the match... I even yelled out “I L L” but no one yelled “I N I” back.

Djokovic Facebook didn’t remember this 2016 post of mine, but it’s a good thing I did... because I just watched the (rain delay) Miami Open final last night with Djokovic (going for his 100th tournament win) against a 19-year-old (whom Djokovic trained with), Jakub Menšík from Czechia. How weird that 9 years ago today, I posted that Djokovic was beating Tomáš Berdych from Czechia in the 2016 Miami Open (because Novak will have to wait to win match 100).

Blood Moon Merlot bottles & keg I didn’t realize that when we put the Blood Moon Merlot into a keg, that it wouldn’t go into the keezer since red wines are not served cold — we’re going to have to find a better way to be able to store this keg. Good thing it didn’t all fit into a keg, because I was insistent on making a few bottles of this Blood Moon Merlot too, and I really like how the bottles look too.

Janet Saving otherwise unused wood scraps for furniture sounds like something to only do when COVID-19 quarantined us all (like it did 5 years ago today). However, I still like the furniture we made then — even this case for an otherwise ugly mini fridge from a garage sale now looks cool in our home.

beer fridge When we got that mini fridge, I put labels (not just beer) from around the world all over the front. Since this wrap is for a beer fridge, I put a black styrofoam strip along the inside top for caps of beer bottles from around the world too. This fridge wrap box gives us a surface for lights on top too...

Dark Matter: the Mind of Janet Kuypers, 2009 I have just been reading articles that dark matter does not exist, that it’s actually how time is sped by the clustering of galaxies, explaining the inflated acceleration of the Universe (a theory I’ve supported before scientists jumped on this dark matter bandwagon when they couldn’t explain a varying “Hubble constant”). But what DOES exist is the book “Dark Matter: the Mind of Janet Kuypers”, because the poem “Chicago, West Side” appears in the Janet Kuypers poetry book “Dark Matter: the Mind of Janet Kuypers” from Scars Publications, which was released as both a 6"x 9" paperback book and a 5½" x 8½" paperback book from the Lulu printer:

cash register kaching I am watching the Illini Iowa college basketball game live right now in Indianapolis — since the Illini aren’t playing at home, I found this cash register noise to make every time the Illini score a free throw the way they do at Assembly Hall, I mean, the State Farm Center. (I hope guys like Chad recognize the sound and think it’s cool that I was playing it every time we got free throw shots during the game.)

I *never* browse feeds, but I accidentally opened a Twitter/X page and saw this fake Elon Musk post. I’d *never* respond to this post (and I marked it as irrelevant), but since $2 bills are the *only* thing I have in my wallet now (and those at Prost Alehouse know that’s all I give for tips) I found this question funny. They’re legal, and people get such a kick out of them, so get a strap of twos from the bank, because why not?

video This YouTube video of me reading my poems “All I Can Capture” and “Momento Mori” live at Chicago’s Jak’s Tap on 3/4/13 for Waiting4the Bus: was shared on Twitter & Facebook 12 years ago today, but also shared on Facebook 8 years ago today. I may have been reading from a binder in this video, but “All I Can Capture” appeared in the books “Prepare Her For This” and “Let Me See You Stripped”, and “Momento Mori” appeared in the book “On The Edge”.

Janet My car is in the shop right now, so I decided to walk to the HEB grocery store to pick up a few things for our Mardi Gras vegan “crab” cake Po’ boy dinner sandwiches tonight. It’s a good thing I only needed a few little things so that I could fit all of these recyclables I found on the walk home in the bag as well.

Janet After wearing my “Big Fun” Heathers t-shirt last night because it’s Mardi Gras weekend (that shirt was from my favorite Halloween costume in New Orleans one year), I spent yesterday, and this morning roasting spent grains from the now fermenting proto gothinator. After roasting and now grinding it all, since I’m stocked up on the stuff, I can now use it to add protein and fiber and gothiness to all my future meals.

It might sound strange to roast spent grains after homebrewing, but they are packed with protein and fiber and can be added to any meal... besides, adding proto gothinator spent grains to meals sounds kinda cool, and I’m running low on the spent grains from some of our other beers.

video This YouTube video of my poem “Vegetarian Stands by the Meat Sale” (shared on 2/28/14 & 2/28/17) may have appeared in several books, but it *also* was in a ‘Tag Team’ reading with C Ra... C Ra McGuirt gave me a wrestling belt and inaugurated me as a Tag Team Poet; we did a Tag Team Reading on 5/18/13, and at one point he wanted to do a book with me (which is why we took a Tag Team photo). We never produced that book (may he rest in peace), but that pic’s the impetus for me to set up a similarly-styled (with a nod to Warhol) cover image with that belt for my next CyberWit book on protest and fighting back, which I hope to release in 2026. But in the meantime, the chapbook from our show has that anger spark too.

video Though I read a lot of haiku that I posted both 11 and 8 years ago today from 2/26/14 while I hosted the Café Gallery open mic in Chicago (and most of them appear in the book “Partial Nudity”), this YouTube video of the Janet Kuypers haiku “bear” happens to *also* appear in the chapbook “Haiku on the Fly”, from a mini-feature-worth of haiku poetry shared after my “Time to Start the Show” feature on 5/6/17 at the Bahá’í Faith Center in Austin, TX.

Testament After this Chicagoan moved to Texas, I saw firsthand the oppression that led to the overturning of Roe v. Wade, which stopped abortions in some states but also stunted women’s right TO children through IVF clinics, & drug restrictions for people with auto-immune illnesses. I wrote the book “Testament” with over the first half about women’s rights post Dobbs v. Jaskson, and at one of my readings at The Gallery Cabaret I shared my long poem “Surprised at What You Might Find, and I think the Chicagoans there weren’t appropriately attuned to the risks these laws are to everyone. (I *really* thank the positive feedback after I read this poem at the “Poetic License 2/2/25 Global Open Mic,” that really meant the world to me, thank you), but it made me wonder if Chicagoans don’t get the trouble this country is potentially in (just because some laws are on your side here, not all of them are — and these laws you’re cushioned from the violation of here hurt other Americans a LOT more). So when I saw this post from David Buddha-Hargarten, it gave me comfort that we’re not alone in this struggle. It’ll be a long road, but we’re not alone. Thank you.

white roses and U.S. map Okay, since I didn’t get Thomas Paul Althaus anything for his birthday yesterday, this goth girl thought she could give him some wilting flowers... but then it occurred to me: wait a minute, Tom might not be goth, and besides, I’m too far away to give him flowers anyway. Well, I hope it’s the thought that counts, and I hope you had a great birthday.

veg poster installed It is accomplished! After years of saving boxes from fast food restaurants of vegetarian products that they no longer sell or labels from vegetarian restaurants that are no longer in business (okay, and paying reverence to some vegetarian places that still exist today), I had so much material paying homage to vegan and vegetarian products on top of my fridge that by Christmas time, I had to take it all down and put it into one large poster. The poster was assembled in January and has been sitting in my office on my Reader box for the past few months. Just today (thank you John) we managed to give that poster its proper place in our kitchen.

Dark Matter: the Mind of Janet Kuypers, 2009 I have just been reading articles that dark matter does not exist, that it’s actually how time is sped by the clustering of galaxies, explaining the inflated acceleration of the Universe (a theory I’ve supported before scientists jumped on this dark matter bandwagon when they couldn’t explain a varying “Hubble constant”). But what DOES exist is the book “Dark Matter: the Mind of Janet Kuypers”, because the poems “Other Horizons”, “the Mind of John” and “two “Not Mute” Haikus” appear in the Janet Kuypers poetry book “Dark Matter: the Mind of Janet Kuypers” from Scars Publications, which was released as both a 6"x 9" paperback book and a 5½" x 8½" paperback book from the Lulu printer:

This was first shared in 2011 (back when my 1st Chicago open mic that I hosted was at the Café in the blue room with the giant fish on the wall and didn’t have the name “the Café Gallery”, and I was so new to YouTube that I couldn’t even post videos long enough to share my entire open mic, so I only recorded intros), but this was worth sharing again 7 years ago today (before the Café shut down and the Lincoln Ave. building was destroyed). In this YouTube of the intro to the Café on 2/8/11 I read poetry from the lit mags I edit — poetry from different artists in the v217 cc&d and v091 Down in the Dirt, plus my poems “Other Horizons”, “the Mind of John” and “two “Not Mute” Haikus” from the book “Dark Matter: the Mind of Janet Kuypers” (which, btw, I kept that dark matter pic as the background image for my video editing laptop).

Gudenteit Now living in Austin, I don’t get a chance to enjoy my favorite beer from the oldest micro brewery in Illinois — Gudenteit, from Mickey Finn’s. Being trapped at home after the cold front hit Austin yesterday, I dlooked in my fridge to see if I had any beer I wanted to drink. I looked in the back of the mini fridge and saw one can of this Gudenteit beer from last summer when I visited Chicago. I thought there was no way that just one brewery pour into 1 old can would still be good, so I had to try it, and man, it was delicious.

I swear that it’s becoming like a hothouse inside my office (which happens to be the hottest room in this house because it’s right above the garage and all the heat rises to here) but it’s the only place to keep my plants safe from the wrath of my cats. (And yes, that Jay’s potato chip bag for my future potato plant is nestled between my asparagus plant and my spider plant behind the pineapple plant.)

potato plant in Jay’s potto chip bag Seeing this post from 1 year ago today reminds me that I *saved* that pot of dirt and Jay’s potato chip bag for future potato-growing, and I *think* I saved a potato that we didn’t eat, waiting for eyes to grow. I had it growing in the office before (which I’ll have to do again since our little kitties Titan and Callisto, which are getting bigger and bigger every day, would attack that dirt and plant, I’m sure it), so let me look for that “potato chop pot” and potatoes and see if I can grow potatoes in my potato chip bag again. (P.S.: It’s 30° out, which seems the perfect time to start growing potatoes in a Jay’s potato chip bag in my office.)

YouTube notice I thought it was funny (or is that ironic?) when I got an email this morning from YouTube that informed me that my most watched video so far in February is a video of my interview on a radio show (so... people were more interested in watching my radio show).

roses & tulips As I am sitting in my office this morning, I look out the window and see a flower truck stop in front of my house. As I got to the front door he gave me beautifully arranged roses, and then a separate bouquet of tulips, which so caught me by surprise. John give me roses five days after we met and tulips shortly thereafter, when he knew I was dutch — not on Valentine’s Day, so this was such a pleasant surprise. Thank you so much, and I love you. (I had to place them both in the office behind closed doors because I had to keep the cats away from poisonous tulips, and Titan was on his heels, trying to reach up for the tulips before I got them away...)

Prepare Her For This Back in 2011, Scars Publications released a 1995 chapbook (that was later released online in 2006 with a different cover) that was turned into the ISBN# book “Prepare Her For This” (with cover art honoring the no-longer-available original chapbook cover, in my first Logan Square apartment). In 2011 I talked of wanting to make this an audio CD, but 9 years ago today I re-shared this book release (where I’m wearing a woman’s symbol necklace pendant that I *still* wear), and I am glad that if the original chapbook is not out there, this book is, so people around the globe can pick it up on Amazon.

praise 4 cc&d I usually get Down in the Dirt praises, so when KathyLynn posted cc&d magazine praise with a photo of her material in the open pages of the book “This Be the Scripture”, I *had* to wait for her approval (she’s moving so it took time to respond) to post a thank you to her — and to ALL contributors to cc&d — for being a part of the 30+-year literary magazine, which started as a tiny underground mag and is now published monthly online and in Amazon books. And speaking OF, the influx of so many poetry submissions to cc&d this past month has been WONDERFUL — keep the poetry submissions coming in so the front section of poetry in every issue/book can be bigger and greater EVERY month!

David & Joe & Thom & Janet I was setting up the upcoming Zoom meeting Facebook event page for the “Poetic License 2/2/25 Global Open Mic” this morning (I hope everyone will make it!) when I noticed from past events a Zoom meeting in 2024 for Corroboree - a Zoom meeting with a lead image of me with other poets at Half Price Books. I didn’t know of this get-together I didn’t make it to, I didn’t know a photo I took was used to advertise it... I don’t even know if Corroboree was ever live at Half Price Books. Although 1 image on my “Poetic License” event pages shows me hosting it at Recycled Reads to honor its roots, ever since my “Poetic License” has been in Zoom meetings, my event images also use Zoom images interwoven with books.

video 7 years ago today (and 4 years ago today, also shared on Twitter, Linkedin, Pinterest, Instagram, and Tumblr) I shared a YouTube video reading poetry from her book “Give me the News” in Georgetown. Journalism Janet (that is, the news-editorial journalism major from UofI, who worked/wrote for newspapers and was published in nationwide and local papers over two millennia) loved sharing poetry related to news stories — since poetry can be more timeless than today’s news.

People who made these horrific choices against life by voting against women’s rights never realized how their choices could affect more than *only* women (in cases of people’s medication bannings, for instance). In efforts to eliminate abortions (as some believe that life begins at conception, which goes against what their church or their government believes), they didn’t realize they’d STOP people from being able to get pregnant too.

This is exactly why more than the first half of the CyberWit book “Testament” is filled with pro-women’s-rights post-Roe v. Wade overturning poems, to shed light on issues some may have closed their eyes to.

Instagram I have been so pumped, because right now the Merlot is fermenting, and our Mustang grapes (hand-picked from our NXMW vineyard), well, they *are* fermenting, but they were infected and we cannot use them for the Blood Moon Mustang Merlot I’ve been so psyched to create this season. John took a photo of the blood moon (shortly after this post from 6 years ago today), and we *plan* to use it for this Merlot. If we *do* make a Mustang Merlot after grapes grow next season, it might have to have my Eclipse Moon photo as its label. (I’ll post a picture of that Blood Moon Merlot label as a comment — without the Mustang references...)

Since then we have driven it to my Beach Poets Illinois features, and even Circle Brewing Company in Austin (in maybe the only state offering a period in a vanity plate, so yay for the Scars Publications website for my license plate).

facebook cover picture for Janet Kuypers It was worth it going as the tullpa of Diane from Twin Peaks: The Return Season 3 for Halloween in 2017. The 1st Halloween while Twin Peaks was airing I dressed as Laura Palmer (I was literally wrapped in plastic); Chad as Dale Cooper filled his coffee mug with beer all night (and it’s a shame we have no photos from that party). I was talking about being Laura Palmer again for the next Halloween, but this time in the black dress in the red waiting room (I already have the wig), so I think in honor of David Lynch my next Halloween costume’s decided.

Janet & John As David Lynch’s Facebook post just stated: “There’s a big hole in the world now that he’s no longer with us.” This is so true. On Halloween in 2017 John and I went out as Dale Cooper and the tupla of Diane. Twin Peaks and Wisteria won’t materialize, and it breaks my heart we will never know what might come from his mind. But when we think the world seems insane, David Lynch would say, you have no idea. RIP.

Janet My mind is completely blown because I just put up a photo of me in India with henna on my arms this morning, but I was wearing a pair of earrings I bought while in India. I decided to wear those earrings today, and while I was out, I saw this iPad showing a random video display of images from six years ago, and they’re all images of me wearing the same earrings..

This post from 10 years ago today is from when visiting India for my vegetarian 20th anniversary. People were writing in Henna on their arms, so I asked them to write “Janet” in Hindi on my arm (and although smudged, “Janet” was written in Telugu above my Hindi name)... the left image became one of the images on the back cover of the CyberWit book “Shattering the Glass Ceiling”.

Any resident of Illinois can vote for a new Illinois flag now... I wish I was there to still be able to vote on this, and I *do* appreciate the old Illinois flag logo in one of the designs, but John and I both agree that the silhouette of Lincoln’s face running in conjunction with the Mississippi river border is kind of a winner for Illinois (though I wish the Star in the blue field was actually a red 6 pointed star, like the Chicago flag, but I’m not the one who designed the flags to vote for). I wish I could vote for this, so cast your vote before the deadline passes...

Atlas Shrugged I saw a post I made 10 years ago today when on a whim I looked for hardcover old copies of Ayn Rand’s book “Atlas Shrugged”, and I stumbled upon a version in RUSSIAN that later vanished. So 1 year ago today I thought to try again, and eBay had a hardcover 3 vol. set of it in Russian, and it would ship from Ukraine. Although Russia attached Kramatorsk (where this book shipped from) 2 days before I ordered it, the book in Russian about the evils of their form of government, from a small country Russia is still attacking now, arrived just fine (btw, eBay sells it for as low as $39.90, and Amazon sells it for... wait for it... $186.99). In fact, an image of the Ukraine stamps used to ship those books to me illustrated the poem with my Ukraine poem in my CyberWit poetry book “The Universe is in Your Hands”.

video I share this memory from 6 years ago today because this is a video of poetry from the Scars Pub. book “Chapter 48 (v 1)” with my cover photo of the Chicago skyline at night from the 96th floor of the (once and always) John Hancock building — before that business closed. I recently saw a news release that talked about all the things Chicagoans all wanted back, and among them were, the STORE Marshall Field’s (I saved a box of Frango Mints with the Marshall Field’s label on it), and, of course, the Signature Lounge at the top of 875 North Michigan Avenue. I’ve been to the Tilt and taken photos of what looks like the view when someone is standing right at the edge on top of this landmark skyscraper in the middle of the day, but it’s not the same as seeing the view of the Chicago skyline at night like that...

JK & JY in show I am SO glad Thom caught this photo (which I posted 8 years ago today) of PJ pulling my poem out of a spigot during my 1/7/17 showBeginning Anew” at the Bahá’í Faith Center in Austin. I still have that spigot and my poem stream (for “Women’s Very Existence”) displayed in my office, and I think it’s cool that 2 photos of me performing that with Joyce Gullickson pulling the poem at Poetry Aloud are a permanent listing at Joyce Gullickson’s Facebook profile page.

Janet and John at Light the Lamp Brewery John makes fun of me for splitting M&M’s and eating them one half at a time (and I only like the dark chocolate mint-covered M&M’s, which they stopped making and now only release milk-chocolate mint-covered M&M’s during the Christmas season, which I asked John to order for Christmas this year for me, which he had to buy from Amazon because we couldn’t find them in stores). I just saw John’s post from 11 years ago today saying I was equating it with Planck lengths (I think John wanted to sound intelligent bringing up Planck before we ever created the “Walk the Planck” Enigma wine, that the Walking Seed website still doesn’t show the most recent label for online). Last night when John was a bit down, I offered him a half of a red mint M&M and he said no. I ate half & extended the other half to him, and he said, “How can I refuse chocolate...”

When we were watching a multi-part series about the Cold War last night that started with a discussion of its history and talked about them asking Oppenheimer where it would be safe to do all this research for creating this bomb, Oppenheimer said to go to New Mexico. Then they showed this shot of New Mexico on the screen... All I could see in this massive rock structure was a tall thin person with a pic that he was excavating something there, but that he was wearing a gas mask and was in a shower after dealing with the radiation from the nuclear testing that they decided to do there. I am positive that no one sees what I see in this rock, but I swear it looks like an art form when I see this side of this rock.

Happy Birthday!!! Circle Brewing Company may be closed, but I still have some Doppel Blur from a keg I bought on their last week open, so I’ll make a point to pour a glass to toast to you today. Have a great birthday!

under the Naples pier the beach just past sunset with the moon the beach just past sunset with the moon
It’s funny that I talked 11 years ago today about how I didn’t have a good enough camera to take the beach photos, but some of these photos became book covers — the pier photo was the Down in the Dirt v127 book “Treading Water” cover; a beach photo was the cc&d 1-6/16 issue collection book Clouds over the Moon” cover.

video It was 30 years ago last night that I decided to become a vegetarian (and right at the anniversary of “Vegetarian Planet” hoodie winning at a vegetarian Chicago New Year’s event). Facebook reminded me of this post from 3 years ago today from a post 6 years ago today, because my highly appropriate hoodie is appropriate for this anniversary.

Janet & John Today is the 30th anniversary of Janet choosing a vegetarian diet. She asked for a special meal so I made a vegan turkey roast with cranberry sauce and butternut squash mezzelune in a thai curry sauce. Dessert will be a vegan chocolate mousse made with avocado and coconut cream instead of egg and milk.

Poetic License Now only a half week away (and always on the first Sunday of every month), come and join us for the Zoom meeting at the “Poetic License 1/5/25 Global Open Mic” — the Austin, Texas ‘Recycled Reads’ G to PG-13-rated pre-pandemic open mic that is now GLOBAL through this Zoom meeting! If you don’t have the address, find it on the Facebook event page. David Leo Sirois, our Zoom meeting guest host this month (thank you!), will start the Zoom meeting as early as 3:00 PM CST, and I (host Janet Kuypers) will be there 10-15 minutes before the open mic starts). And SINCE this is global, let me list local times for the regulars... 3:30 PM CST Sunday is 9:30 PM Sunday in London, which is 11:30 PM in Greece, which is 5:30 AM SGT Monday in Singapore. We all wish our regular Zoom host John F. McMullen a speedy recovery and look forward to his return, but since he cannot host this month (hopefully he can at least attend!), come get your Poetic License & be a part of the “Poetic License 1/5/25 Global Open Mic” Zoom meeting on Sunday, 1/5/25 (20250105, or 5 Jan 2025), from 3:30-5:30 PM CST!
