Poetry News

THIS JUST IN ...

I am very upbeat about a recent rejection letter I got. The poem R.W.W. is on the death of my son Rainer back in 1998. There was a note scribbled on the form reject saying the poem was lovely, wish it didn't end with a question though. Not the first time I was told that and since poetry is what, 80% revision? I am working on a new last line and will resubmit it.

Poetry and Puppy

Poetry log.

Willow Springs still holding some work. (Lucky lucky lucky).

Have a haiku in for consideration with Snapshot press for their calendar project.

Dog log.

Otty is fantastic. Four days into his new gig and he’s already getting the routine down. He’s a quick learner and takes to his kennel with no fuss when we have to run out for Tony Paco’s chili dog sauce or my son goes to his swimming lesson. He is doing his business outside – mostly.
He runs after his toys in that jumbly, almost falling sideways way that makes him even cuter. Archaic phrases like pell mell come to mind.
