Beata Agustin Date: 2/16/2023 5:19:00 PM Thanks for sharing this. Likewise, thanks for welcoming me to PS. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of God expressed in the Bible's John 3:16, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." The Lord's blessings be with you.

God bless...

Maureen McGreavy Pigeon Tart Date: 10/24/2022 6:14:00 AM I was hooked on phonics too! Login to Reply Jeff Connelly Date: 10/24/2022 8:50:00 AM No wonder we are both fucked up Maureen lol. One of the reasons I don't like "talking" with text is that there is no tone of voice. So I can only ass-u-me that the below comment by Jenna was slightly pissed off because I used the word "decent". Maybe I'm wrong. But it was supposed to be more of a play off on the words: decent and descent. Oh well. Last of my poetic flurry for awhile; finishing up many of the books written in Colombia. Not posting anything again. Fuck it...

Jenna Logan Date: 10/22/2022 7:12:00 AM Much better than 'decent.' He's a risk taker, sometimes a rule breaker who tries his hand at many different forms. That's something too many poets are afraid to tackle. It's nice to know you appreciate Jeff's poetic talent. I do, too.

Rules are made to be broken ;)
