a word about a word

A note about my poems which have one word on each line. These really do need to be read out loud. I call these my "falling" poems. They're to be read tumbling down the page

A BLACK BIRD AT DUSK

CAAAAW
CAAAAW.

LARGE clear pearl
puddles,
sticks
to eyelash,
spills
in moonlight
down
my
face.

I knew it would come
at dusk I heard a black bird.

EVERYDAY MERMAID POEMS

Just got the first fabric sewn "illuminations" from Deidre Scherer (www.dscherer.com) for the first six poems of the book. I'm thrilled. Can't wait until it's a book. Anyone know any publishers? We're shopping around.
