Poll question: Why aren't YOU reading BlueIris's poetry breaks?
Readership and comment levels have dropped off considerably in recent weeks, and I've been curious about why.

1. My dear BlueIris!
I am, sweetie...

This is a tough crowd, though...

I'm sorry...:hug:

:P I LOVE it when you post Stephen King. He's wonderful in every way. I read sometimes but I don't always respond.

4. You know, it BAFFLES me how much energy & inspiration
one man can have. He's done fifty-odd books, poetry, plenty of articles and reviews, plays guitar for his band, and does those hysterical cameos in his movies. Not to mention the work he does for the Democratic party.

Good lord. :D :wow:

5. I haven't seen them.
I think they're dropping off the first page by the time I get home. :(

10. I've read and enjoyed a lot of the poems, but I don't have much to say about them.
I'm a writer myself, but my thing is (fictional) prose, not poetry. I haven't written a poem in about 3 years, and I very well might never write another one.

BTW, I voted "I like beer" because, well, I do. :P
