Dear Unregistered,
Pardon this intrusion into your Eratosphere reading, writing, commentaries, and, ahem, all the other delights the Sphere is able to offer. But to keep it simple indeed, Eratosphere needs your help/sponsorship!
Ordinarily--and actually never before until now--I wouldn't post this personal notice to members outside the threads confines simply because there was more or less some measure of the much-needed assistance from usually a couple of handfuls--out of the hundreds active of the thousands registered--of very helpful members. But it seems things have fairly dried up--or rather, only a dribble remains--in terms of such help, even with the seasonal reminders where we bump the sponsorship threads, with as much restraint as possible, a couple of times or so throughout the year. I could go further, but I'd rather simply point you to the relevant assistance threads to read more or to interact with:
Thank you!
...Alex
It's been a while, Unregistered -- Welcome back to Eratosphere! |

Mike Juster on 'Rattle' today
For his poem "Heirloom."
I find the poem impressive in being able to find a simple yet convincing objective correlative and, also, in the way Mike is able to use tet couplets for something other than humor.

Hey, this is attractive and great. Congratulations!
P.S. Oh, after Andrew’s remark, not that I was ever under any doubt that tet couplets could avail something more than humor, but it is true indeed that HEIRLOOM shines as an impressive specimen.

Reason: Coming to, I had to fix last sentence. This after dentist, that laughing gas no joke. Oh the horror of residual dumbness!
