Due to my recent comments...

I am forced to make an apology to my fellow poets Jess and Eumoplus. I will not stutter like the Fonz and say "I was wwww- wwwrrr- wwwrrrooonng. " I was wrong!
I confused their right to comment on the poem's content with a personal attack on another poet.
Such was not the case! I can only admit that I was bitten by a bug of self-righteous morality, and rushed to defend an out dated and indefensible code. However... From now forward, I will ask no quarter and there will be none given! I will play by the new rules. ~ Geezer

Due to my recent comments...

I am forced to make a public apology to Jess and fellow poet Eumoplus for exercising their right to voice their opinion on religion and beliefs. I was wrong! I'm not going to stutter like the Fonz and say
"I was www- wwrr- wwwrrrrooong! I will own up to being a self-righteous moral jerk. I rushed to the defense of an ideal that is outdated and indefensible in the cold light of day! I make apology to the site and my fellow poets. However... from now on, expect no quarter asked or forgiven, I'm playing according to the new rules! ~ Geezer.

We DO have a Forum here...

For those of you that have noticed, but figured that it wasn't any of your business, it is yours and ours ! This is to inform the uninitiated, the little icon in the black band at the top of the page is for all of the poets here at the site. Not just a few certain individuals that hold positions on the council.

Reviving Chats?...

Have you got that certain time of the day or night, that you would like to share with me?
I have been seriously thinking of reviving our chat room!
Maybe give it a new coat of paint and get some fresh faces in there.
Remember how much fun it was to throw some pixie dust at each other and
mess up Paul's office? We had some serious chats, some that dissolved into chaos
and those that made us all think and learn new skills!

Dear poets...

I am ashamed of myself for not being here more often. I have been struggling with some demons that are very hard to exorcise. I wish to apologize to all those I have let down and I especially want to apologize to Beau for not answering her messages. I love Neo. for all the fine poets and opportunities it has given me to share my works with everyone. Please be a little patient with me and I will try harder to be real part of Neo again. Thanks to all, ~ Gee
