Hello George,
Glad you enjoyed "Your First Hut is the Cheapest" and "Ikea". As you may have noticed I don't write much that is "worthy" but I do have several rather irreverent song parodies posted on the site.
First - thanks for your kind comment on my last post.
"We laugh...we jest...
To forestall the final rest!"
Second: love your line "I'm glummer than a raindrop falling on a hearse" (above) in a very funny poem. Priceless!

Hello George,
I've just been reading through your poetry and love your writing style. It is a little surreal at times but that is what makes it so appealing. I particularly like Frank, stop it. How did you come up with that title?!

Good work George enjoyed them greatly.

Hi there George,
And welcome to WOL. Love the gentle, self-deprecating humour in your poems - and don't we just need humour in these bleak times? I have found this to be friendly, helpful place to hang out. Hope you enjoy your time here. Maybe the best way to get something out of this community is to offer a few crits on the work of others and check out the discussion forums. Have fun!
Regards,
A.E.

Hi George - your comment on "Dog Dancing" is much
appreciated from a poet with your own range of
imagery and humour.
