Tee hee - think I've been a paid up member of the 'bitter and twisted club' for a long time - I just put a nice veneer over it. Glad you liked it and thanks for reading.

Hi Steve
Thanks for the feedback re Hypocrisy.... I dislike Political Poetry with a passion however this was fired by the smug comments from people and groups, that I would need to recount my fingers ever I should shake hands with anyone of them.

Cheers
Gus

Sorry I didn't make it to the Bards last night - I did try ever so hard but had a catalogue of disasters. The M58 being closed at Orrell was the final straw. Will try to make it next month. Hope you all had a good night.

Hi Steve, thank you for your comments..I am aware of the potential to 'do men down' in poetry..however, I am only talking from one person's perspective ...not all men are bad ...some are quite nice really...I'm almost certain of it. Sian x

Hi Steve

further to our chat I was wondering if you could kindly take a look at a short story I am writing - it is from a maleperspective and subject close to my heart so finding it very difficult. Need some honest criticism to develop it. Let me know thanks

Hi Steve,
thanks for your comment on the taxi poem.
It's not you being thick, i had a tendency towards 'telling' too much in my work and in the attempts to stop myself from doing that, i've gone to the other extreme of taking out too much. I'm learning along with everyone else but now at least i can take the criticism for the most part :-)

I'm removing the poem to work on it but just for the record, the drivers are actually waiting for punters, silver foil balls are what they throw at each other and the emissions are the farts which never go unnoticed.
Billinge rain you already know, but outside is where we gather to smoke with no shelter.
The original title was love affair and the last line was supposed to be a twist at the end eg. a fare.

I'll work on it and post again at a later date.
Less than six months ago i would have tossed it in the bin and probably had a paddy and removed my profile too but i'm learning and growing now as i go merrily along.
Writing isn't my first love, i have several other things on the go, but i've reached the point of no return and so now want to get right the bit i do.

I'm working on a poem for my first anniversary on this website. Hopefully it will be funny but also have some insight for the new ones who like me, entered it without much knowledge of literary terms and the mechanics of poetry etc...
and without malice for those who might have upset me along the way.
Touchy sods and sensitive people, writers aren't they! :-)
Sorry for the long winded response.

Hi Steve,
thanks for your comment on my poem,
'pondering' the back yard'
Yes it reminds me of my picking the seeds with a pin too. Got the holes in my tongue to prove it.

A fantastic honour to join you on stage Steve!
Poetry (for me) is all about passionate performance, good writing and mostly having fun, as that makes you live longer. I am no page poet, no critique, I just know what I see and like, you being an instant hit.

regards
P

Hi Steve,
my terrace is a quasi, with a red brick porch.
I don't think the house bricks would ever come up red no matter what they were scrubbed clean with. :-)
You're right about the sun though, it can be felt in the porch.

Are you going to the Bolton slam on Monday?
I'll be there so it would be nice to meet you but if not, i'm definitely going to the Wigan one in April.

Hi Steve - yes, I did post something. It's back on now, but tweaked a little. It didn't 'feel' right after I'd originally posted it.

Your contributions are adding some much needed life into the site. Well done.

Hi Steve,
thanks for your comments on my profile poems.
I wrote them ages ago and blogged them at the time. Occasionally, i post some old stuff to change the look of my profile.
There are so many new poets here now though, i could probably get away with blogging an odd one now and then.
The book poem was once used as a philosophy. With the idea of a life being like an open book or in this case, a fallen one. Also in the literal sense of having to pick it up out of some sense of curiosity or to find some deep meaning message in it. :-)

You're welcome to my encouraging comments, although i doubt you really need them. You seem to be very well versed in the art of writing anyway but it's always nice when it's appreciated.

Thanks for your kind comment, Steve. Funny you should mention that song, as I did pretty much walk behind him when I married him, but was walking well in front if him when I divorced him some months later!

I learned a valuable lesson; first love is more romantic in memory than reality! LOL

I wrote that poem in my late teens; I can barely remember the feelings anymore unless I re read it! The past is another country; they do things differently there...

Thanks Steve.
A couple of years ago, a senior police officer based in Bolton described alcohol in the local press as "...the most dangerous drug on sale". If he is right why do the authorities permit so many off licences on our high streets ? Because they don't actually give a toss about ordinary folk who have to live with the problems caused by alcohol, but they do give a toss about the vast profits that their pals in big business make at our expense. Legalise all drugs, bloody hypocrites!

Hi Steve - I have lived in Wigan for around 12 years or so, but I have also had the misfortune to attend one of the 'Egg' nights in Liverpool. You know the one. Self indulgent vocalists hog the 'stage' and wallow in their own delusions.
Both me and another Wigan poet, John Togher, arrived too late to perform. I wrote a little piece about it. Come Strut Your Stuff - We will, if you give us a chance!
I'm over it now, and I've performed there since. It's actually not THAT bad...

Thanks for your comments.
PS - I remember Sam Brady!

Hi Steve
Thanks for reading and leaving comments on the cat poem. It has an unusual structure I guess. Quite suitable for these unusual animals. Liked your comparison to soldiers on the city walls. We once had a castellated fence which was even more fitting. I think you have to write a poem about this.
Winston
