WARNING: what you read at noon is NEVER the same poem or post a few hours later. I can't help myself. I like to noodle.
HELPFUL SUGGESTION: if you like what you've read (and even if you didn't), come back in a day or two. It'll be better. In fact, if you hated it, you must come back and read it again because it will definitely be better.

"I find that I am so excited I can barely sit still or hold a thought in my head.
I think it's the excitement only a free man can feel, a free man at the start of a long journey whose conclusion is uncertain" -Red in The Shawshank Redemption, Stephen King

unlike tom, I do not sing. well, actually I do. but only in my shower and I sound FAB U LOUS. (great accoustics plus no one to burst any bubbles)
I'm going to a poetry meeting this afternoon with ten copies of something because I don't know what, and either I'm going to read it or someone else will read it or no one will read it. I'm a wreck. I've never read my stuff in public before (while I'm present, in the flesh) (you poor bastards are the only people that I've shared this with directly).
Needless to say but I'll say it anyway, I'm scared to death and rewriting like a lunatic.
And now I have to go to practice for a couple of hours. An old lady on skates. This day is entirely nuts.
I hope I don't fall on my ass and compound my misery.
