Some of my favorite quotes:
New knowledge is the most valuable commodity on earth. The more truth we have to work with, the richer we become.
-Kurt Vonnegut, Breakfast of Champions
People are beginning to see that the first requisite to success in life is to be a good animal.
-Herbert Spencer
For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted.
-Jesus of Nazareth
By and large, language is a tool for concealing the truth.
-George Carlin

My Poetry
-
something strange swam in soup
cosmic chimera cooked casually -
we are gathering
garden stones -
Tis youth that shines on our great destinies,
And winds of hot amour address our souls.

ticket2write : Sonnets and pantoums on July 20Thank you for your comments on my poems. I value your opinion. Form poetry is to a poet what weight training is to body builders. It strenghtens and tones. The "poetical muscle" it builds makes our other writing, even free verse and prose, stronger. The best poets craft their form poems in ways that bring the words and message to light so the reader does not even notice the form. Case in point, most people would not notice that the Dylan Thomas poem, "Do Not Go Gently into that Goodnight" is a villanelle. It takes skill to do that.
