Why a social network for poets is not a good idea:

Come now Sam, Ed and Cathy. You set me on fire with the incandescence of your eyes is surely… well, it's ah… well it's… striking, possibly some other word beginning with 's', oh yes sinking, that's the feeling it evokes, sinking.

Idiosyncrasy

Is it not a rare treat to indulge upon that which we fear most? Is it this sensation that endures man to so boldly press his nose into that which he does not rightly dare?


I was reminded of my callow youth, when I once collected magic mushrooms from cow patties.

Oh, Sam, do not take offense because I now understand your Magritte avatar. It’s a quiet admonition.

And there sat Sam, looking cool and calm,
xxxxxin the heart of Eratosphere's roar;
xxAnd he wore a smile you could see a mile,
xxxxand he said, "Please close that door.
It's fine in here, but I greatly fear
xxxxyou'll let in the cold and storm --
xxSince I left Plumtree, down in Tennessee,
xxxxit's the first time I've been warm."

-- The Elation of Sam McGee, Robust W. Service

Sam, I don’t have a facebook account, but when I tapped on your link I managed to see the top of your head wearing a blue blindfold, for warmth I assume, in the center of the screen. Bravo. I assume you are smiling but I couldn’t tell.
