To Whom It may Concern

Your poetry and your content IS one and the same. Let's put that baby bugaboo to rest.

Who's writing it? Your heart, your mind, your alter-ego, your soul, your spirit? It's all about you regardless of the subject.

Yes. You.

And when I write a poem, the content is all about me, my thoughts, feelings, alter-ego, soul, spirit, etc. bad, arrogant, stupid, over[-the top-Anna, etc. etc.

So fuck anyone that says we shouldn't comment on content. Ever hear of the it's all about me meme?
lol.

Let us enjoy our time together and our lives for as long as we have it. And if you adore your poetry,
your misery, your laughter, your tears, your heartaches, your aches and pains, your fevers and your foibles, your illness and your anger, so be it.

Eh?

And judge not lest you be judged...

And in the famous words of Porky Pig:

Thhhhaaaats all, folks !

You got that skippy!

We were supposed to go to an important Middle East Peace Meeting. Now I'm waiting for the cops to write out a stolen vehicle report. The third fucking time!

It's a beatup old 95 Neon, last time, they broke windows, windshield, inside dome light, radio, stole the brand new battery. AND it cost us several hundred dollars to get it out of the impound lot when it was found.

And how is YOUR DAY?

I stayed too long in this place I've left before and come back. One of the worst experiences I've had. But we all have choices.

Come see me in Florida.

USELESS

There are no thoughts my art seeks
no wishes or desires this sorry soul speaks
any longer
it’s all been said . I am done.
useless twists and turns of the tongue
a language that brings us
farther away from who we are:
I am my father’s son.

Bullshit, we're always judging. Whatever God there is isn't interested, nor is going to sit around, judging us, why waste the time? We're doing a great job already.

Christian, Catholic, Jew, Jehovah's witness, Muslim, atheist, Hindu, Buddhist, it doesn't matter. Like the Campbell's soup commercial, "it's in there".... every day is judgment day.

You have been shit on again, no-one as far as I know sits in a big chair and judges us as we pass through, but the bastard that took your car has a few more questions to answer to.
Hold in there Gal, it is life and all the things it throws at us.
No matter who we are or what we have achieved, it all boils down to who cares a shit.
Those religions you mentioned sure don't care what car you had and probably the rest of the world, but if there was a tiny, tiny light to come on, it may be that you are your own boss and what you do, and think of yourself, is the most important thing as you exist on this planet.
In that frame you carry is a caring soul that is the most important asset you have, Yours Ian.T

There are a million reasons to believe in yourself,
So find more reasons to believe in others..

What is it that's so attractive about your car? Perhaps where you park it! Can't the police do something about the villains. You could put a fakir bed on the seat, not visible, or fix a slimy cover on the wheel, or what, I run out of ideas.

Anything that isn't about us, or from our experiences will possibly be looked upon as pompous stuff, as if we were out to impress in some way or other. At least it would be forced, not something that came from the unowat.

I put out my tongue at those who stole your car. LJER. LUvAnn.
