The King

I ask not who is king; I tell you all it’s he who stirs the pot of darkest dreams, whose genius then concocts tales that enthrall his faithful fans, who relish silent screams and feeling (underneath King’s spell) flesh crawl! Andrea Dietrich/ Dec. 27, 2009 For Brian Strand's contest: A Literary Love Affair. I really do have a love affair with Stephen King (whenever I open one of his books or watch a movie based on one of his novels) For 5TH POEM ON THE SOUP... Poetry Contest

Dear Andrea, hi it's Flipper. I was going to comment on your Poem "This Night" but I talked about that Poem in the soup mail I sent you.You are the first poet to have the Chef favor 2 Poems in a row and there is 10-15 more or more of yours favored. I only picked your Poems that I know we have all read I'll get after the Chef about talking to Mr. King. Chef could call Mr Stepnen King and talk about the RedSox with him. You have soup mail Respectfully Flipper

congrats on the win, it's interesting to dig out some of those earlier posts isn't it, and how happy I am to read this one because I like stephen king too, and andrea I have a personal letter he sent me years ago, he was quite well known back then but not as famous as he is today, I doubt he is able to reply personally to mail these days!

That is King whose shows I have to watch with a peep here and there. I have only watched two of his shows and this guy has to have a different mind. Weirdness or on drugs. Guess I should watch if he ever does an interview. How does he come up with these strange things? CREEPY. phyl
