Let me just apologize.
I'm not a writer. I don't write poetry. I don't have people demanding that I write, sharing it with all the world.
I wish I were - then I would be a better man. But it's not a gift I was given.
So don't think that I'm sitting here, all presumptuous, thinking that I do this well - that I'm writing for the sake of the people reading because they need something beautiful in their life.
No - I'm writing mainly because I experienced this great big fairy tale this summer. Sometimes something pops into my head that I need to spit out, but not often.
So I'm sorry.
The travels continue tonite.

well...thank you
i wrote that this morning - hastily - after reading something else
but i guess most of it is still true
Good read here.
Thanks for the link, and for visiting mine!!! Always remember- one of my favorite cliches- dance like no one's watching, love like you can't get hurt, write like no one is reading it........ don't underestimate the power of your words. :)
Christa--you forgot about hanging out in your house nekkid!
J Holden--we obviously think you are a talented writer, with prose that shows us where you've been, and we're enjoying what you have to say, so please, keep writing!
Not giving donuts upsets stephanie!
Sometimes I think it's me who is "being all presumtuous," especially, I'm realising today, in the things I say on other people's blogs. I was thinking about how it's too easy to say ugly things, and too impossible to take them back... I regretted what I wrote on Trey's the moment I said it, not because I agreed with him (I didn't), but because I could have chosen to disagree with him in a much mroe civilised way, but I still haven't figured out how to delete anything... made me seriously consider throwing mine in the garbage, just so I wouldn't do things like that anymore. But anyway, whether it's what you mean to do or not, you are giving people something beautiful to read.
And I think that's the very last thing I'm ever going to say to anybody on this stupid thing.
k o w, christa, steph - thank you, i appreciate your words
blue - you're overreacting
the fact that you're realizing some of those things is a positive step in and of itself
i personally didn't find many things that i disagreed with trey on, but we all have our right to opinion
the key is engage in CONSTRUCTIVE conversation - not name-calling
anyway, thanks to all who are reading - all i hope is that i become a better writer, i'd like that
yeah I resumed the discussion with Trey and as it turned out, we actually did agree on some important points, it's just that neither of us had done a particularly good job at articulating our initial positions, me especially... And I don't even know what was with the name-calling. I never do that.
i know, i read
