dear Mishka95673,
i am not so gentle, man,
and neither is my poetry, sometimes.
in truth, some of the poems i've written have been published,
as lyrics, in songs. i was part of many teams.
all we did was add melody and music to the message.
i commercially recorded and released over fifty tunes.
most of what i have posted here on my
MS.ORG POEMS page
is recent and more decent.
i was blocked for many years, but it seems my muse has returned.
spontaneous verse has given me much joy,
but i also savour the poems that require assembly, like puzzles.
sometimes the rhymes just roll, like lucky dice.
sometimes i have to break a word to make it fit where it belongs.
writing is risky sport.
there is blood in my ink.
[font:Times New Roman]If a man comes to the door of poetry untouched by the madness of the Muses,
believing that technique alone will make him a good poet,
he and his sane compositions never reach perfection,
but are utterly eclipsed by the performances of the inspired madman.
