A pile of rubble,
A puzzle, broken
Down into blocks
Of hardened earth
Freed
From the architect-
That once imagined.
From the Poet-
That once dreamed.

While this is a topic that I've touched on here before, I thought this Daily Herald item was worth reading.

It's a Wrap...
Geeze Louise, when have you seen such good poetry blogging as Victoria & Eileen have sparked this past week? I'll lift a glass of Beaulieu Vineyards "BV" Chardonnay 2000 to toast this weeks exchange. But hell, It don't take much for me to want to pop a cork of BV Chardonnay.
Well, Tonight I put together a packet of five poems to submit to New Letters which takes me up to 7 submissions for the month.
Northland group met this afternoon. I read the Post Card Poem that I sent off to Ivy last Tuesday. It was well received.
That's about it for the weekend... Been keeping an eye on the playoff games tonight. Hated to see the Cards lose. I think although that series is tied at two games apiece... I think they will endure to play the World Series this post-season.
New York vs. Boston.... what can I say. The curse is the curse. Deal with it. Looking for a Cardinals Yankees series. Ah, baseball is so poetic!

Price
Two sixty-three and change
A shrill scream to go
With a few too many pints
Crimson blood
Soaked Camies
And uncontrollable sobs
That no amount of hankies
Will ever hold
Back the rivers
Of loss
Xeroxed a thousand plus
accolades around blogland
WTG Jilly - an acceptance for Ink Pot. Meanwhile Ivy is the featured poet over at Babylan Speaks for October. Speaking of Ivy.... I'm anxious for my next post card poem from her. This snail mail stuff really teaches patience. Or something...
Oh, I almost forgot! Aimee Nezhukumatathil has a poem translated to Italian. I'm so Impressed!!!
