Writers Are:

Writers Are: We are all the carnal offspring of nouns and pronouns, verbs and adverbs, conjunctions, "INTERJECTIONS," and adjectives; with the occasional preposition thrown in there for good measure. When feeling naked we clothe ourselves in form, meter, syntax, grammar, and style. Fortunately, we do have the DNA of the nine muses on our side. So,to quote a famous movie star, "I've got that going for me!" Addendum: I went searching online for writing journals which accept poetry for publication or posting. I saw on one of the journal websites which accept poetry submissions that they were only interested in poetry which is "intellectually provocative!" So, while the Muse was upon me, I stripped naked, sat down, and wrote what I thought was a damned fine piece of free verse. They have yet to respond to my submission!
