The noted author, d.knape
has had works published in his basement
on a copy machine and stapled together for worldwide
distribution using postage stamps he personally applies.
He is also a director of the National Curmudgeon Society,
promoting the universal spread of Curmudgeonism
to all old men who have nothing better to do with their time.

in order not to scare anyone.

besides master of ceremonies?

love the word Macabre
but what happens to the last part of the word?
the BRE
it is not pronounced?
it is silent.

is it "enquire" or "inquire"?

I don't know that every weed is an Herb.
But...certainly they play a part in the
grand scheme of things.
One man's weed

I like your wording
concerning HOPE
anymore a thing
so rare
there's hope still
in this poetry
the alternative
to despair.

good advice M.C.
women give advice although unsolicited.
men give advice although most of the time it's wrong.

Thanks M.C.
our power only lasted 30 minutes.
The rest of the day we were out.
Then at 7:30pm it came back on,
only to go out again 30 minutes later.
Now at 2am, it came back on again.
so I rush to type this to you
This is the worst storm I have ever seen.
It is now 6 degrees Farenheit.
cold cold cold.

those are "Northers".
Down here in Texas, the weather can change in a heartbeat
in the wintertime. It may be sunshine and 70 degrees, then Boom,
a "Norther" blows in and the temp. can drop 30-40 degrees.

Can't believe they would actually INCREASE

No peace for you.

Yes, like tattoos and earrings
and long hair in pony tails.
The young get old yet cling to
their former ways.
the problem is the tattoos sag
the hair thins
and wrinkles replace what was.

M.C.
thank-you for the like on "The Mirror", Such great poets as yourself, reading my work, is so rewarding. It is a dream of mine to have SOMETHING published sometime, like yourself. I see you have been with WOL since the beginning of time, I am here just a few days, I am in my prime. If you like what I post in the future, please drop me a dime.
