The style and tang of refraction
Form elusive gifts we can share
In perceptive built illusion
Of improvisational air
That is stammering for relief
Like a question seeking belief
In quixotic . . .

Wish I was a genius
Or at least close enough
Solving any problem
Before I'd eaten lunch
Wish I had a dollar
For each mistake I've made
Rolling in the green stuff
Instead of save save save . . .

I stood amazed and watch the dancing and all the windows get fogged up and Fred was gently teaching a few steps I had never heard of. Fred then asked Wilma to catch him from a dance move where he jumped . . .

Let me put in a disclaimer here so people don't rush to the mirror and say, 'Is he talking about me?' The people this article is about have all received private letters from me with the subjects . . .

I have enough problems without having some idiot decide I'm going to be the one to make his or her day, so they can vent like a clothes dryer. Don't these people know we already have a problem . . .

A cable TV show, 'Future Weapons' shows advances in military weaponry, but some future weapons are so hush hush that I fear I may be jeopardizing my free sample pack of Cialis by revealing a weapon . . .

Some who read this probably won't like my honesty, but I believe there are six reasons that many, especially fellow poets, don't read poems.
1. Self absorption or ego. I don't mean . . .

I just spent well over an hour writing comments to articles to Gather members. Some I know as close friends. Some may become close friends in time. Some of my close friends on Gather are already gifted . . .

I'm all over the map you might say
And out to lunch most everyday
Perhaps you'd call it a holiday
To let my mind drift and stray away
Here in my cubicle of four walls
I can picture . . .

The careful planning was not erased
Seventy one plus two hundred days
Of nourishment that was warm and safe
Then blinding light an unwelcomed change
And I cried then felt touch . . .

My wife does not like shopping with me because she says it takes too long. I agree because I'm rarely in a hurry and I always look for not good but spectacular bargains. I walk slowly down the aisles, . . .

Last Christmas, Gather was not on my agenda. I think I had posted maybe 3 articles between joining in October to Christmas Day. Upon reflection, I did not start posting articles until March. Elsie Duggan . . .

The day it lingered til the sun went down
Except of course in Alaskan towns
I tried correspondence no one read
I sharpened pencils then went to bed
The next day I sat and read some poems
Of those not . . .

Dear Bill,
The other day I went up to a local Christian
bookstore and they were giving away "Honk If You Love
Jesus" bumper stickers. I was feeling particularly

In the past two weeks I have been tagged by three different people. I have been quite busy with my wife off to see her parents in Japan. She thankfully returns tomorrow and I will have to stop my Sack . . .

Well, I guess it's time I bared my soul and told a few of you about my life. I guess the most interesting period would be after my honorable discharge from the Army. I certainly was not the same person . . .

Yesterday I was a bit sick. No, it wasn't mental, or caused by watching hours of Mr. Magoo. My whole body, except my head, got incredibly hot. Believe me, it wasn't from doing the Tango. I went . . .

Friendship is based on a commonality of spirit, goodwill and of course respect. I guess some of you reading this are looking for answers and you can rest assure I'll give you good advice.

Only six companies feed us news.
We need true debate to keep us free
Not the greedy few to steal our dream
True journalism is all but dead
