Hi Friends,

 

I hope to make some good friends here and post some good poetry for your entertainment.

 

My favorite is dark poetry in free-style form, although I do like to experiment with everything from classical forms to the off-beat.

 

I take critical feedback very well because I realize one can only get better by seeing his faults.

 

I used to play guitar, semi-pro baseball and do giant slalom skiing, but a few injuries cut my athletic carreer short and now with rather limited movement, I'm trying to be a good poet.

 

I live in Potomac Maryland 

 

Please drop by and visit me often.

    Excellent

    Your theme was entertaining and made some great points
    in a smooh-flowing, well-worded poem. I liked the philosophy
    in this poem. The begining of suffering is desire and life is suffering (Buddha).

    Thanks for the read,

  • Excellent and Irreverent!

    Excellent work as usual, Dave.
    Well-structured using direct phrases to get your points across.
    I like this poem, as I am also irreverent.

    Awesome work!
