They will not often be very large, and until I can't stand it any more, they will have a haiku discipline, but not be haiku.<BR/><BR/>It came from engaging in a blog that was ascerbic and combative and coming to realize that I was not going to engage. So I fashioned the habit of replying in poesy. I aim at poems quick enough that I can steal the time at work without feeling too bad because I work long.<BR/><BR/>Now I realize that flexing poetic muscle gives me wide varieties of topics and I am approaching three hundred poems since August.christopherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04201537517464996231noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2377252801421681569.post-52978829339866491322008-12-26T18:05:00.000-08:002008-12-26T18:05:00.000-08:00Your poetry is purple and indigo blue Christopher....Your poetry is purple and indigo blue Christopher.<BR/>-------------------<BR/>On Tracey-Ann's blog I find this post.<BR/>Did you write it?
