Day I : Experimenting with Roman numerals .
Ha , just kidding .
So , this is my my first attempt at a blog : apologies in advance .
And , i have written a book ; it may not be very good , at least no agents or publishers seem interested ( perhaps because I am a lousy salesman ) ; thus far it has been previewed by some locals , that is personal folk -- as opposed to those unknown types -- and has received glorious ( they didn't say it sucked ) reviews .
I guess this space is an attempt at working on technique , along with mass wordage and punctuation experimentation -- i get off on long sentences -- and is mostly for fun , as it will doubtless get no readership : so what !
If however you do stumble across this , also check out my flickr page ; it is wicked-cool -- or at least it has some pictures of flowers and some buildings and stuff , too ...

Other than the book , i mess about with short stories and poetry ; most everything is on the strange side , and i have a fondness for worms . Check it out :
out of the dirt
like agony you dance
a fish out of water
contortionist worm
return to the earth
dive, push, thrive in the soil of your birth
complete the circle: beginning; end.

Or this , at least it sort of rhymes , even if it lacks conventional structure :
Take a picture of the worm! See it wriggle!
It delights, it excites, it entices glee!
To most the worm’s a blight,
Slimy to the touch; and squiggly.
But look at us, we love the thing:
It delights, it excites, it entices glee!
To most the worm’s a blight,
Slimy to the touch; and squiggly.
But look at us, we love the thing:
it’s wiggly!
Don't expect many compelling political or social views ; plenty of other folk are better informed than me , and more willing to spread their sometimes inane views around ; not to say some ain't arguably intelligent , but most aren't as gifted as George Will , who loves baseball so he must be a genius besides . Go George !
