I just discovered yesterday you are writing a poem a day too. WONDERFUL:) I have always loved to read your work, Art and I look forward to reading all you have in this blog.
I really like this poem too. It's very "sparse" but the best poetry is...making the best points with the very fewest words.
And I finally see what you look like after 11 years...you and Ryk both have beards, is that a teacher/poet thing? LOL:) (not making fun of you, just noticing)
I will be reading and commenting on some others...keep posting eh?:)
Glad you found this blog. I have the beard because, frankly, for two reasons: I am too lazy to shave everyday (seems pointless to me, too) and I don't like my face. The beard lets me defeat both of those obstacles.
A poem a day is a hard discipline. But, perhaps it is one I have needed. I always feel that deadline pressure. Seems to work for me.
I'll keep posting, but more sporadically, after this month is over.
All my best! I've looked at some of your poems on LJ when responding to Ryk. I really enjoy your perspective on the world. It is different than mine in many ways and lets me see things a little differently.
If you like any of these poems, feel free to link to them. If you want to post them on your site or blog, I would appreciate a head's up. I also want to make sure that you give me credit for my work. It has taken a lot of effort to create these, please respect that.

Hi, Maria!
