Like that new chess poem!

It is wonderful, ain't it! Nice surprise from far away.

"Rook" pretty cool too!

Yes Sandra nailed it.

Those top three poems all excellent, I think, Rob. (First one double titled). Tom

Thanks Tom. Double title because I can't make the 'Big' title RED and it's part of her poem.

It's cool that those three represent Canada (mine!) USA and France (the topmost one).

Don Shaeffer's poem on PB today a good one!

He took the photo for the "Beyond the Broken Bridge" cover and has a poem in it too.

Thanks Tom, and for your wonderful support.

Colline's "Degré de familiarité" a piece of good candy today!

Mais oui!

Thoroughly enjoyed "Bar, 1999". You'll be happy to know, Rob, that when I searched for Wright poem, the top two were you, THEN the New Yorker!
I eventually found and read Wright's poem, and also read what Wright wrote about the poem - partly a formal exercise - and appreciate how Stangeland responded formally to it, as well as in subject matter. Tom

Take THAT New Yorker! Thanks Tom.

Lots of fresh stuff... 3 up today. www.pigeonbike.com

Excellent!

Like the middle poem especially, "Morning in Shenandoah County, November" - and the new layout - and "Endangered Species" a few days ago. I look forward to the new posts a lot. Tom

Thanks guys. Trying to keep it fresh. 3 in a day is cool.

Like the dandelion mom today!

After killing about 16 lbs of them, it was a welcomed change of viewpoint.

Today's "Adultery" a good one. Tom

Passer writes cool stuff.

Nice looking mag. Good, strong spread in there, Rob. Tom

Very. :)

:)

verrry cool!

The new "Tumbleweed" poem a very interesting one! I notice how the title not only serves doubly as the first word but also how well it haunts the later lines of the poem. Tom

I love Pigeonbike because RL doesn't mind giving us a glimps of the futher.  In this poem, I had problems with the following lines:

Now

twigs the antlers of power lines
peels the last held leaves
and swerves

Any help appreciated, but you're also appreciated if you don't help.

Thanks T I liked the mystery C alludes to. It's a hard read at end and I think opens up interpretation.

Check out the gorgeous multimedia poems by Lawrence Gladeview: http://pigeonbike.blogspot.com
Tom

All his handiwork in one place. Something different and cool. While there check out Tom one post lower.

In addition to just how plain cool the graphics are with the text, using one more factor in the layout - color - creates many more possibllities of "line breaks", which Lawrence exploits wonderfully.

thanks for directing me there, tom.  very cool!

tom and lynn thanks for the look, the pink border is from an english beat show flyer i snagged off the wall at a club in downtown denver, kinda reminded me of the pink ladies.  besides, the ska punk in me loves the checkers!  thanks guys and more to come.  lawrence

Oh, you like ska... wow, that changes things...

hey man, i have been looking past your metal since we've met, find a way to deal...

Ha! [devilhorns]

Lawrence's new multimedia poem's great too
