Drat, I deleted it. That was the poem that could really put
Newspoetry on the map!!!
Which reminds me.
We're a little low on poetry. Anyone who is so inspired please chuck
some poetry logs on the newspoetry fire. I don't want to have to
start posting spam as newspoems. I've got lots of Don Emerick in my
back pocket, but I don't want to resort to an
all-Emerick-all-the-time schedule if there are eligible poets out
there yearning to breathe free.
