Sleepy Time Bear is a twitter user well known for his universally beloved and beautiful romantic modern poetry. In omnipresent flashes of digital hate-release, he spreads fondness on the TL, bringing joy to anyone who comes across his Celestial Seasons avatar.

We talk about erotic poetry and the language of love, from the anonymous, steamy, adulterous lais of Marie De France to Heloise and Abbard and William Blake; an appreciation of The Ladies, just 'understanding' things, making theorycels angry, and some great advice from the bear himself. He has been described as an 'instant anti-depressant'.

"A woman's photos on her phone are better curated than any 'exhibit'"...so true.
