Eric Rensberger lives, works and writes locally (Bloomington).  You may have seen him wandering around downtown looking distracted.  He has a website at www.ericrensbergerpoetry.net, where you can find the, as yet uncompleted, chronological collection of poems “Account of My Days.”

Eric says, “I find my poems in my body, in the newspaper, and in the night.  I have to take great care in extracting them.”  He reads his poems “Useful,” Trillion,” “2/26/09,” “Moonlight,” and “What We Found” on this edition of The Poets Weave.
