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 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!

Excellent
Your theme was entertaining and made some great pointsin 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,
Rich
