Various Posts, Musings, and So Forth on My Own Poetry

13 poems of mine I recommend you start with (17 Dec 2009). Start with this list if you want to see what I consider my better work. The extra explanations might also help you to see what I try and do with my work.

One last hurrah for the ole Poetry e-mail list, aka "I remember" and my broken heart (20 May 2010). Years ago, I mostly distributed my poetry via e-mail. It was, in a lot of ways, a prescient take on blogs before the majority of weblogs were even about. Now, with little hope of it returning, I have this post to commemorate and even commiserate with the old me, that poetry-mailing me.

So, I've decided to embark on a couple of weeks of poetry experiment-ish...in progress (25 Jan 2013). Haven't written a poem in a while, this is one way to correct that: every day, a 10 line poem, building up to a fuller 140 line (ish) poem (ish) by the end of two weeks.

Limericks, Haiku, and other Short-form Verse

Four Limericks (27 Aug 2009). I wrote four limericks to show the style and bring a little dirty back to it. There are limericks here about cannibalism and a man wanting a designer vagina. You've been warned.

Southern Haiku (23 Sep 2009). A collection of haiku and what I mean by the term.
