This blog is devoted to a select group of poets. We're starting with poets from the Ann Arbor area, but, hey, if you're from Detroit, Grand Rapids, Saginaw or the Upper Peninsula, then that is okay, too. We've even been so generous to accept poets from other parts of the USA and the entire country of Canada!
Our goal is to provide you with a prompt every day from which you are to garner inspiration and submit a poem. How to submit will be very easy. Just put your poem or short story in the comments section and hit post. You may not immediately see your post, but it is there under the "Comments" section. You may need to click on "Comments" to see your poem. It is there on another page.
You may need to have a Gmail or Yahoo or AOL account to post in the comments section. Most of you do have Gmail or Yahoo or AOL, but for those of you that don't, it's extremely worthwhile to open up one of these email accounts now! This way you've got a chance to get your work out there in the world.

ReplyDeletebut you always hated those first few weeks
the awkward stares
the guessing
and always gauging, gauging, gauging
how much to say and how much to hold back
i know, i know
but that's part of the mystery isn't it?
it's like unwrapping a present
you don't know what's inside
but you know it's going to be wonderful
wonderful?
wonderful?
when was the last time it was wonderful?
it's wonderful every time
you know...the unwrapping part
