not sure what you meant by your last comment...

by the way, what is that round thing on your head?

Don, writing comes so naturally even your comments are poetry! ??

-->

"My daughter tells me not to
Eat when I am writing
Cos I could risk a spill-out
No food in mouth for biting

This spill-out food could land on page
(Or keyboard if you're typing)
The page it could be remedied
But keyboard? Hell, what griping....?"

All those comments were true.

Don, re 'Adjectives' you have it there sir.
Ambiguity is, as Bart Simpson said "Your dammed if you do and you're dammed if you don't"
Don it's the bend and reach that defines the purpose.
Or is it?
lol

after going through
reading all your comments
i have forgotten what i meant to say
when i logged in
i missed breakfast!
oh well
thanks for your bi-Polarism
speaking of that
since you traveled extensively
have you been to the Antarctic?

Also I like the fact that you quote YOURSELF.
Now that takes some hubris. but I can like them.
I also have something to say...but
it's not worth repeating. Wink.

In my mind,
words make towers.
Thank you for adding some to these towers.
Picking me up when I went down.
Giving me tips and compliments to aid in my journey
to becoming a real poet and author.
As they say,
some make a big impact on one's life.

Welcome to WOL, Mr. Matthews. You'll enjoy this 'lot'. We're a very mixed bag in every conceivable way, but we are united in the need to write and to share poetry. And we love to comment and receive comments.

We are world-wide.

(This 'lot' - you 'lot' etc. is pure Bermudian slang, for 'group of people'. Haven't used it in years - and up it popped - effortlessly.)

Thank you for your comment on my poem In The Tower.
I do understand what you mean.
I have written a poem called 'Men Can Cry Now', it's on my blog, written back in February.
I sensed a change by something I had seen on TV about men now being able to show their feelings in public. Especially crying.
Thanks again with your support with my writing.
