It's a shame that I rarely get to see these image based poems of yours silent. For some reason work blocks the source.

To succeed or not is irrelevant. There is no such thing. Making your unknown known is what is important.

dear Grant

i am really grateful that you mentioned that the poems as jpgs are being blocked by your work computer network.
they are but images saved at  www.photobucket.com

on a few rare occasions i have had the same complaint by other readers.


glad that this one reached your eyes
and thanyuuuu for your effort to keep trying.

Silent - do you post your work this way for any reasons, other than purely artistic ones?

dear Stella, James,Tiko & Tom

thank you all for stopping in
and eaves dropping in on the conversation

and for leaving such fine notes of reply
on your napkins

the waitress was kind enough to bring them all over to my table
with a refill of decaf

and Tom an extra thanks for the pick.

dear Roger

over the years it has been brought to my notice that my poems are grabbed from the page
and posted in other people's blogs, websites etc etc

before i posted them as jpgs they were all tooo often re-posted elsewhere with typos,
and if you can believe it also changes & sometimes new type faces and new layouts as well
and frequently with out even a reference to the author

so i found it more reassuring to offer them first in a way that would help to retain their authenticity

many years ago i was also creating visual art........and i preferred to explicitly exhibit my paintings without a frame
yet i gave much attention to matting & framing my limited edition prints ......but of course prints get sold most often without framing
and it could be quite an eye opener to come into exhibition spaces , public as well as private, and see how
the choices varied with framing the prints and how it had an effect on the overall caché of the aesthetics
of the original work.



thanks for asking

Just an fyi, I can't look at your poems because they all look blurry to me.

thank you Karl

what screen are you using , hand held, laptop , desktop  ?

no one has ever pointed out that problem before
they are standard jpgs

but they would become blurry if the entire page was enlarged too much
