Oh yes, you would definately regret it if you didn't do it. Are you going tonight? DO IT!!! Pick something that sounds smart and poetic. Even if they (the audience) can't relate, at least they'll be impressed. I would love to do something like that. I live in Lafayette though, it's a bigger city than I'm used to living in, I think around 200,000, so surely they have somthing like that. I would piss on myself if I ever actually got up in front of the lights. I can't even sing in the car if there is anyone else in there! At least not very loud.
I have a feeling I'm not going to go. Honestly I think I'd rather sit hang out at the diner until some risque hour working on NEW poetry. Besides, was supposed to go with my boss and her husband but I think she's sick today...
That's not dumb that you don't know where it is. Yes, it's in Louisiana. Your night sounds B.o.r.i.n.g. I'm only saying that of course, to get you to go do what you REALLY want to do. Unless, you really just don't want to do it. You must have a nice relationship with your boss.
I think Kali is more your type. And that is a joke. Very impressive poem at ariascorner, and I bet it was because you couldn't think about it. I don't rate other than honestly, mind.
...Published again. Short story this time, and that means every time I've submitted I've had something published thus far.
News, and I intend to post this at my blog (journal, whatever): poetry.com is a fraud and so is Noble House. For sure, no mistake. Which probably isn't actually news... Glenn P.S. I suppose I should say this more clearly. From everything I've seen, you're an excellent poet, without a great deal of self-confidence (which is generally good--see Camus' notebooks, for one). As far as change, it's at best painful.
Hmmm. Although I find Kali fascinating, I am most certainly not one of hers, at least not at the moment.
Thank you very much, though. I actually put a lot of thought into this one - I suppose evidence0flife finally offered a theme that hooked me. It took some effort but I'm pleased with the outcome. It's so nice to actually produce something after so long a dry spell. I hope it continues.
Congratulations on the publication. That is wonderful. I suppose it's a good thing to keep my friends circle full of published writers. Perhaps it will kickstart the competitive streak in me and I'll finally get on with the submission process.
Thanks again for the compliments. Confidence is often an issue but there's always more to it than that. I just have to work through things in my own time, in my own way.

the other butterfly... dreaming of bright yellows, and violets.
you told me you aren't fragile; and i do stand corrected. but you ever notice; everyone thinks butterflies are these lightweights, floating to and fro. Funny thing, they always get where they want to, even other continents. They "look" that way, but they really aren't. nor are you... :) like i said, with me you are free. and I will not leave you...

I dunno. We'll see. I am looking forward to pretending to be single, wherever I end up doing it.

Encouragement is priceless, tho. :)
