Michael Farrell

Michael Farrell lives off Gertrude Street in Fitzroy, Victoria, Australia. Michael Farrell off the ground alas. Michael Farrell has had no other imaginary friends but Gertrude Stein. Michael Farrell has published a ‘Long Dull Poem.’ He wishes there was a Tender Button for Cocky’s Joy. Bios are not literature.
