Michael Roberts is the author of the poetry collection No More Poems About the Moon (Write Bloody Books, 2009). He is trustworthy and, generally speaking, in good with peoples’ moms. Recently he was caught on camera making change for someone on the city bus who only had a five spot. When people applauded, quietly he declared, Please, let these acts go unrecorded. I wish to be remembered as surly and mean. He once held Stephen Hawking’s book “On The Shoulders of Giants” in his hands and thought to himself, I will read this someday. It was a pivotal moment in the young author’s life.
