Retired and now making an attempt to perfect my poetry and art. I spent many years in Laboratory Medicine and working with intellectually impaired adults. I lived in Australia for 7 years before returning to the U S. I have lived acquiring a life time of experiences in settings ranging from socially acceptable behaviour in the upper middle class to working with and living with street people addicted, afflicted, and desperate. Life is such a cauldron of mismatched experiences, and here lays the meat of my experience.

The Unfolding This is the beginning of 2009. A year which jumps from chaos to catastrophe. The end of 2008 saw this world consuming it’s self in a world wide economic melt down which was the tailings of year in absolute political anarchy finding the Palestine and Israel world headed for another Mid Eastern Crises. On every level around the world there was unrest. Political, economic and civil strife poured over the news and into each life. It would be difficult for anyone who is even a...

IDOLOGY / in a dream last night I dreamed about a man I called “Kcops a Greek Egyptian person who’s last name was Artsuhtaraz,” speaking with a German accent his purpose it turns out, was to write these words, and to inform you.

Observing the world from a distance for the past seven years it is apparent things were not going well here at home. Changes made after the 9-11 incident and tragic loss threw the whole world into a chaotic spin it has yet to recover from. I was out of the States on that tragic day in September. I got a call from a friend and he told me the news here in Australia was streaming the disaster as it happened. This was at 10:20 pm in Perth. I watched as the second plane hit tower two. I was shocke...

The gerenal message of this poem is clear and embraceing. It is very mature in many ways. I believe you are budding with talent and enthuism while your technique matures. I feel you must spend time and consider a re-structure of how this poem might grow into something you will be happy to publish one day. One suggestion on how to do this requires me to re write a line here and ask you if it might not sound more lyrical if you were to consider it in the furure. I do not wish to change your wor...
Well, you ask for a critique. As poetry goes it is in the opinion of a non academic (me) a wonderfully piece. From the perspective of the Phone Co.s you slander and skin salamanders, as a rant one of the neatest I have come across. Your metaphors and implied discontent, ie; "telephone type of void" and "mistaken representation of Digital happiness" not to mention, "Skinless from the stains of mercy." I don't see you improving anything except you empty glass of wine. Well done, wish I had writ...
All I will tell you is I know who you are. I spent my day in the limbo jungle. Get your credits back if you like but you just wrote the intro to a chapter I have already written. Literally. Thanks and good work.
It is a difficult question, the read is the same for me. Unless your clarifying a subconscious idea to the reader of how the medication is acting! It is a vivid read for me in any case. I at my keyboard can count the gnats floating by. Well done 9 and 9 ratings.
