In the Square
A kite tail of smoke,
Color not insignificant,
Danced-
Tugged the emotional strings
And reached deep down to pull
Cheers by the boot straps
From tens of thousands
Who stood watching
With larynx seated on edge.
Poetry Month Quote April 19
The true poet is all the time a visionary and whether with friends or not, as much alone as a man on his death bed. ~W.B. Yeats

The Pope - Readings & Being Outed
If you are doing the Papal watch - Jilly has a favorite pick - Cardinal Claudio Hummes.
Wow... I saw that Stephanie Young was quoted in the May/June issue of Poets & Writers talking about the monthly reading series she holds in her Oakland home. So, I'm guessing she now has a line backed up to about Boulder, Colorado of people wanting to come and read....
I know it is not exactly NEW news... but I have not mentioned it here. If any of you have not already seen this, here it is - Foetry has been outed.

Poetry Month Quote April 18
I grew up in this town, my poetry was born between the hill and the river, it took its voice from the rain, and like the timber, it steeped itself in the forests. ~Pablo Neruda, quoted in Wall Street Journal - 14 November 1985
Brittan Elementary School / Principal Earnie Graham get Dubious Honor
Stick Poet reported on Mr. Graham's lapse of better judgment earlier this year - I see that he and the school have been selected the winner from 5 nominees (you have to wonder what he beat out) for the "most invasive proposal or project," from a London-based human-rights group.
Earnie Graham ~ your fame just keeps growing!
