Happy Birthday, Tony! May your day be filled with poetic brilliance and just enough narcissism to remind us all what it truly means. Your words have always danced gracefully between humor and insight—making even our sweetest ruins seem charmingly relatable.From Guggenheim Fellowships to NEA grants, you've collected accolades like some people collect stamps—but let's face it: no award can quite capture the delightful wit you bring into every stanza. Here's hoping this birthday brings inspiration for another year of clever verses that make us laugh, ponder deeply, and occasionally question our own vanity. Cheers to you!
