Default Gail White and Toni Clark at RHP

I don't see everything, but when I do I report it. Our two modest members Gail and Toni had short poems at Right Hand Pointing.

Yay, gals! I like that friendly zine.

Congrats. I remember seeing Gail's poem before, I love it. And I love the editor's sense of humor. RHP is bookmarked now.

(According to their guidelines, they dislike rhyme, profanity, and other things I can't live without, but because they made me laugh, I shall magnanimously refrain from embedding natural objects in their heads.)

I too will refrain from embedding natural objects in their heads. But since a blanket dismissal of rhyme and meter seriously ticks me off, I will also refrain from submitting. I did enjoy Toni's and Gail's poems, and I like a sense of humor so long as it is combined with sense.

Gail and Toni,
I haven't found your poems yet but will. If two natural rhymsters can beat the system I am already happy. Congratulations.
Janet

Thanks for the kind words, all. My poem is actually shortened and adapted from a longer poem, which is probably where Rose saw it before.
