Rider comin' up behind me

Ragged ear pony shows message is important

As he draws alongside
I
indicate food in my saddlebag
hand across the reins
and

jump

Hi Nick, Stopping by with a nice, sweet Welcome to Poetry Soup. I will get much delight in reading and in time become familiar with your verse. As for now, I will greet you with the same smile others passed when I first joined the soup. Wishing you and your poetry the best. I hope you get to meet all the nice poets around here STARTING with me- SKAT :-) Please drop a hello and tell me a little about yourself if you wish.

I went over and read some of your stuff, Skat. The 'Woodstock' piece is intriguing. Your no nonsense nailer is, to me, quite delightful to find in a world suffused with daisies and lace. Yeah, you are a good person to start with on the hello/handshake walk. You will find most of my bio info is in my work. Ta 'til later, Nick

Okay- I put up 'I'm scrapin'. Not the one I had in mind when I made the 'less enigma' statement. However, it is a piece of work that billboards where I am at.

Wondering how you chose your handle, Linda. And thanks for the welcome. I'm not much of a contest person. My effort is directed towards opening up the Word. Shaping the form so it presents a piece with inescapably strong lines. This current work, 'Horde Mind', does benefit from some explanation. 'Howl' has a companion set of notes that reveal the basis of each line and also the shifts in the style. Allen knew what he was doing even at the beginning. 'Ulysses' also has a book as thick as 'Ulysses' that is invaluable in grasping what that Mr. Joyce was on about. As for an explanation of 'HM'- I have one but I ain't so sure it's important to go into it now. I got another thing I wanna put up that will come across with less enigma. Thanks again for the greet, Nick
