Lots of meaning to ponder over here. Poems left unheralded in newsprint, but alive + inflammatory in other spheres. Another fine posting Maureen. Be well. Brian

Better than "Poetic Lascivious" for which they set the writer on fire.

Poetry transcends not just print but hearts, cultures, even time itself~

the title fits well with your theme. Indeed, the news makes my blood boil...and sometimes there is a lot of poetic license involved in reporting the 'news'--more like yellow journalism to me. Nicely done, Sara

Mo, I conducted a small poetry workshop a few time and awarded a "CERTIFICATE OF POETIC LICENSE" to the participants.
