The Elephant in Your Room
If you imagine the incomprehensible
made evident,
looming in your living room
like a parked car,
immoveable in its essence;

I am a conundrum and an unraveling knot, a hidden metaphor and an open book. Squeeze me and I may cry, but probably laugh. I like to write poetry so that I can reach not only into my own soul, but also find a resonance with other souls in my writing. I love chess, all kinds of music, great poetry, soccer, great movies, my beautiful wife and my three beautiful kids, their spouses and all future grandkids. I love Sofie, our new Golden pup, and I love really good, expensive red wine, when I can get it at other folks' houses. I'm way too funny for my own good.
On Gather, I'm Looking For ...:
reading poetry, exchanging ideas on the craft of writing; pastime of reading and commenting on member's contributions, connecting with serious writers and poets
Edward--I enjoyed reading your posts and particularly the one on Dylan. I wonder whether you might want to view my site and contribute in some way--you sound like just the type of person that can help build the kind of critical reflective community we are hoping to create with BabyBoomReview..www.babyboomreview.com--at any rate let me know your thoughts..Best regards-- Laurence Peters
