Now Joe I've some questions 'bout your picture
Are you scaring, or sun-blinded, drunk?
Are you looking intensely intellectual?
Or acting as just a big hunk? ?

Hi Joe
You have sparked off a memory of when I first came across you. Different poetry clicks with different people. Yours clicks with me. It must have been something humourous for me to remember......

I indeed have typed on. You have sparked me into writing one about a lonely typewriter in a shop hoping for a buyer. Posting soon.

Your sample Amanda 'Unsocial Media' is so good. And so true....
The she/he/she/he interchange was different. And clever.
The more I read it, the more I like it.....
I looked back 6mths to 'Pebbles and Boulders' and saw why I said 'So good'

Welcome to WOL. I know Montserrat well and once lived there. No independence as yet which is not helped by the volcano. I look forward to reading your poetry.

Hey Nigel just seen this today, the comment went astray from me! So How's this French Poem going? Try climbing the Effiel tower with some trifle, but don't wobble like the jelly or spill the cream..... You had steel ladders ....I ended up with Friday the 13th Ladders and Snakes & Ladders, What a climb!

I suppose I was feeling a bit spikey at the time I wrote that comment, Ray. I’d just had another poem removed; puzzlingly, it was from 2017! Not a re-post, you understand, but the original. It kind of implied that it was Not offensive in 2017 but is now! Odd.

Hi John. I didn't want to get bogged down on the discussion board when it seems to functioning quite well without my further intervention. But I did enjoy your heavily loaded references to "offensive" literary material, and thought it was not only relevant but entertaining in its take on the moderation process, which I have noticed in the past has been levelled against you. But I'm pleased to say you don't lie down!
regards, Ray

"...making sense of the written word..."
I totally understand. I too struggle with this sometimes.
Thank you for taking the time to give me your honest opinion regarding my work.

I think that I was expressing my opinion (re your verse) in a less than precise manner. I was trying to give you a genuine glimpse that I sometimes have of the difficulty I can encounter in making sense of the written word in its grammatical context. Several more attempts made it clear. Tommy ???

Hi Anika - Military Lines - thanks - and keep up with your poetic flair. I find it saves a thousand words in getting messages across in all spheres - me currently in pursuing a solution to deforestation both locally and beyond. Even when dealing with the hierarchy it seems to resonate. Blessings. P.

thanks again Keith. not sure if this can qualify as a poem.
more like a rant. but i think people empathize with the
the statements.
(I forgot to mention the frisking business that goes on,
the stripping of belts and shoes
pockets and pride.

Liked both your poems in Printed Words Ruth
Never Settled, Never Serious
The tourist seemed like a lover
who did not care at all
liked the link up with the trunk to the suitcase
and the circus to the clown
the lion tamer watching
maybe fate to reel him in
when all the travelling is done.

It seems you haven't yet caught up
My first attempt free verse
Writ on the 6th of August
Took long while, (was a curse)
Titled my 'First Efforts at
New-Age Poetry'
It gotta lotta comments
Which, yes, did pleaseth me
Here are the first few lines
What one might call a 'taster'
But then again dk you might
Think it's all a waster
Time.....
"Beauty is a constant.
To roam the path is to become one with it.
We vibrate, we heal, we are reborn
Have you found your circuit?"
Isn't that music to the ears dk? I can almost hear the heavenly strains of violins in the background.
Shit! Who wrote this script dk?.....
