The politicians are out there after our vote,
Making lots of promises to keep our country afloat.
But politicians please stop and think ,
Unite, otherwise our country will sink

Po Janet says what's an MIB? It's not in her Earthspeak Dictionary. I would suggest Manifold in Back but knowing Janet she wouldn't know the front from the back of her ship let alone what a manifold was. No Janny I'm talking to Po

Comment is about My body is a pebble (blog)

Original item by John E Marks

This is my favourite of all their tracks, John. It inspired me when I was first out there as a musician. It has a feel like a gypsy dance to me being resoundingly in the minor key! This is a poem which stretches the imagination and flirts with a sort of inevitable sense of fear, magnetically attractive. I like the fact you put this innocuous question in there; It gives it a childlike innocence.

I challenge anyone there not to be drawn by this. Am I a rare spirit being attracted to work of talent?

Hello A Peterson - A well written, heartfelt prayer letter.
I can tell you that He is found by those who seek Him. It isn't Him who is far away. It is us who are facing the wrong way.
He is only a (humble) prayer away.

Hello Ralph,

This book has been placed on my priority list of purchases for Christmas. I have read a number of your poems on WOL and am able to relate to your formative years as they, in many respects, replicate my own. Keep writing Ralph as your personality and courage shine through. Your memory, keen observation skills produce very readable poetry.
Best Wishes
Keith Jeffries

Po - I had a conversation once with Daughter No 2 who said she wasn’t going to vote because she didn’t understand the issues. I told her it was important she did. “Men have died for your right to vote” I said. “They’d Be dead now anyway” she said.
On a serious note, I have little advice to anyone who wishes not to vote. I myself have spoiled my ballot paper before. But if you don’t vote, don’t moan about your lot afterwards.
In one sense your vote is insignificant, in another the most fulfilling act you will ever contribute to society. As the Dalai Lama said “If you think you are too small to make a difference in this world, try sleeping in a room with a mosquito”.
As to who to vote for - do what we all do. Guess.

Seems this age landed Don
Born by quirk of nature

A comfort zone push-outerer

Tag along just for the ride
Have a happy day

This is the plight of the nation. Our country suffers at the hands of parliamentarians. Who can stand up to change the fate of our country? Heroes not being born these days in plenty. Villains are thriving, hero is dying. Country suffers, while villains make bucks?

Reality bites!! Well written hugh.

I'm reading the lines on my 'puter
They're blurry Ruth, blurry as hell
As instructed I'm trying to read between them
And find those that're as clear as a bell

Still struggling here looking for clarity
My screen? it's all white, lines a blur
I'm s'posed to be a top-class Aussie poet
And everything looks fuzzy. Like fur

What's that Thale? Put me glasses on?......

Gone and embarrassed myself to the whole WOL community now Thale......

She says it was a serious poem...sorry Ruth

Original item by john short

Wow! Glad you enjoyed the poem. Never occurred to me that the site needs redeeming. The best thing in my opinion is that it empowers people. Especially poets who are just starting out. They can express themselves and get responses to their work. I only discovered Poesis Novae Litterature through this site. A fledgling ezine that has quickly gone from strength to strength. I try to encourage people to submit their work because a poet who never submits is like a boxer who trains in the gym but never has any matches. It definitely improves your poetry but then again, people have different literary intentions.

Janet's trying to make contact Fred. Just need to tune the frequency a bit more

blip......blip.....That's better. She's saying you sounded a bit echoey to begin with and thought you nearly got zapped at one stage.

She was shocked you called the ship she co-pilots a 'flying saucer'. The statement you don't believe in them is a risky one. You know what happens to unbelievers when Santa comes sleighbelling over their houses on Christmas Eve. I take no responsibily for her actions in matters like this.......

blip....blip.....

She'll forgive you this time Fred. O ye of little faith she says.......

Comment is about I fell in love with an Alien (audio) (blog)

Original item by Rick Varden

It so happened that October’s Write Out Loud Woking at the Lightbox coincided with Halloween … and a number of our wonderful poets certainly entered into the spirit of things. Compere Rodney Wood wore a Halloween hat, Geoffrey Pimlott went undercover, Kitty Coles, who specialises in the ‘spooky nature’ genre, admitted she was ‘spoilt for choice’; and Michael Cutchey provided a spectacular finale, donning Victorian garb – an undertaker if I’m not mistaken – to recite poems by Lewis Carroll, Edgar Allen Poe, and HP Lovecraft. We also heard a captivating set by our featured poet, Richard Hawtree, delivering poems with great humour and brio from his entertaining and engaging Dempsey and Windle pamphlet, The NIght I Spoke Irish in Surrey. Not to be outdone, Donall Dempsey enlisted the help of Heather Moulson to give us an enlightening piece of medical science involving a very long word that means the back of the knee. We are also close to Remembrance Day, and there were poems about war from newcomer Chris Britt-Searle – a remarkable epic with a savage twist at the end - Lorri Pimlott, and Karen Izod, while Anne Warrington delivered a powerful and angry poem about people smugglers and their trafficked victims. Thanks also to Pete Jardine, Nathan Hallam, Frank aka Charlie Cheerful, Ray Pool, Heather Moulson, Tony Demoncy, Peter Taylor, Louise Blake, Amel Oudjida, Eddie Chauncy, and Janice Dempsey. Apologies for not having pictures of Pete – I was busy filming him, of which more in a separate post. Suffice it to say that Pete spent much of the rest of the evening videoing poets in a trial run of something which we hope to take further. Thanks for all your efforts, Pete! Thanks too to comperes Greg Freeman and Rodney Wood. Commiserations to Karen Swaley and Andy BJ Low, who both suffered train mishaps which meant they were unable to join us as they had intended. The next Write Out Loud Woking at the Lightbox will be on Thursday 28 Nov ember – but no open-mic poetry at the Lightbox in December, as the last Thursday of the month is on Boxing Day.
