Notes About The Poem


               

Steppin' Off

Steppin’ Off My Platform I Will Miss you, It’s only so long And not a swan song I have projects awaiting They need some attention An untenable encumbrance Far too many to mention So I’ll be takin’ time out Or bound to get worse September First Steppin’ off

What an ecliptic variety of literary giants you have chosen for your homepage it would make for a wonderful wall poster. Just one of many of your artistic accomplishments we will miss! See you soon, enjoy your hiatus! Bestie, Robert

Anaya, hope you are well of course. We all have priorities that must be addressed if we are to keep our sanity, health, and relationships intact. All is good as you are in my heart and have a spot reserved. Smiling now and always!

My dear friend, Anaya, soulful poetess, I will miss your beautiful presence here but sometimes we have to step off our virtual platforms and attend to other things. Let’s raise our glasses and toast to you, your amazing artistry and your eventual triumphant return. Clink! Cheers! Warmest wishes and hugs my sweet friend.. ~Susan P.S. loved your classy sign-off-for-now.. :)

To:Ink Empress Re: Soul Speak, "embrace myself beyond any conditioned concepts that seek validation from superficial voices and material artifacts" "I was once tangled in narcissistic games of fickleness, and I’ve tasted scathing opinions served on silver platters" I resonate w/your soul. You're a God-send, for the better, undeniable a trend-setter. Those afraid of any change, I see all around us. Poets at first who didn't understand & ridiculed, are now writing beautiful poetry inspired by you!

David, lol. I left out a line, "A virtual community" ha. So I guess Steppn' off the virtual planet could've worked? Ty
