on the contrary

On a warm, clear spring day the phone rings,
"I'm terrific, never better, and you?"
"There'll be no weather tomorrow"

No weather, any more, ever.

Nugae stultae [small stupid nothings]

1.STUPIDITY is not exclusive to us Americans. We’re just better at it as we are with most things.

2.LAW and JUSTICE: mutually exclusive

3. RIGHT TO BEAR ARMS : I’ll let the NRA,ACLU and the GOVERNMENT shoot that one out.

4, POLITICS: a matter of who tells the best lies and has the best dentist.

5.DEMOCRATS : REPUBLICANS / YANKEES : REDSOCKS

6. FINALLY:

Let me count the reasons...

First off who doesn't love fiscal responsibility in thier government! Of coarse I do. So does anyone Republican or Democrat I can think of. BUTTTT if I subscribe to the independent ideals of Republicans, including less government and privacy, which sounds great, I am also forced to deal with thier extreme religious influence. They are pro life, anti choice. And although some claim to be tolerant of cases of rape, incest and the health of the mother, many are not even tolerant of that.

I passed you in the hallway again today, it seems you are always some where, standing out from the crowd. Your face beaming with youthful radiance and a nose and ears that are just slightly awkward upon your sweet face. Today was different though, I was compelled, if that is even the word. I had to speak, to know if your voice would register on some lingering wavelength surrounding my soul. "Do I know you?" I naively ask. "Umm I don't know, I've seen you around though." you said as you shyly kicked at the blackened cracks between the tiles.

Hope to see you all there for our Special Event Room

consider contributing. It might not just produce beautiful poetry, but will help us as a community of poets

Thanks, I believe to Beau and Judyanne's critique workshops.

The poem is the poet.

It's not the same as novels, we write truth or silly Pam Ayres nonsense.

I can enjoy nonsense but if we want to invigorate poetry we need to tell the truth, not just make clever play on words.

Especially not be sentimental trite morons.

I don't mean hate crimes, I mean hating things worth hating on this site.

Mi bi-polar enhancement and health issues tend to lead me to express extreme opinions, but don't some of you think the same things, moderated by politeness, concern, misguided nurturing?

The rank stupidity, lack of talent and ignorance of many Neopoets is worthy of harsh, not critique, but criticism.

Just a little reminder
room tonight at 9pm eastern
bring your questions and I will try to answer them
