Thomas Edward Wright's Profile:
My mom made me practice the piano and learn to type during the summer of '67. My athletic and other academic pursuits got in the way until a couple of years ago when I bought a piano and found that I love to read and write. I enjoy watching my three kids re-invent the wheel and spend inordinately too much time hitting tennis balls to our two labs. A Midwesterner, I love nature, and a good beer. I read The Hobbit to my son. What a great way to spend time together. My wife and I are catching up on local history, and trying to find the best bottle of wine without spending more than $12 (inflation). That's about it.

With Leaves StirringMell W. MorrisHi Mello- How's the creaking neck? We're ropin' rain and girding for the white cover. Like to see your stuff in print. Granite Kinda Guy2005-10-06 20:39:45

Senyru 818Michael J. Cluffit was early, and the morning streamed in through the fog, through the window above the steaming radiator. His olive coat, nothing if not alive, hid its stains well. Why he wore grey, not gray, ties, that was about June. You had to underestimate him to think him worried.2005-10-06 20:15:54
Senyru (train watcher)Joanne M UppendahlI walked the tracks as a kid. brings back good memoirs. t. :)2005-10-06 20:00:58
Clearing SkiesDellena RovitoThe water blue [colored-you don't need this] sky is the backdrop, [another word?] cloud puffs in [] watercolor [] painted for today. Flirtatiously, the sun peeks out[] from [we know it's behind] the feather [use one or the other here, not both] lightness of accumulated clouds. Emanating from [its exalted spatial being-ness ] [what?] gold[] radiates momentarily upon creation spreading warmth, deliverance from the chill of winter's cold. The great beyond appears free and limitless. Drifting on and past my stage of atmosphere the clouds creep by. The picture has continuously changed, dark, light, and bright. Spot light off, spot light on. The deep dark gray clouds move on.......... off into the far and away. Some tightening is needed beneath this belt.2005-10-06 19:58:18

EncyclicalMark Andrew HislopNow that the Spanish are free, we can speak Serbian. (Just before Spain in the alpha-betical) Before we get to Somalia, do you eat olives?

The Climbing LevelsMark Andrew HislopAdam. Not Atom. You're reading the wrong ledger. I'm thinking of - well, it's not cricket. Or peanut butter. You're on fire. Keep at it. tw.2005-10-06 18:28:20
Twenty-Three Lines for SchefferMark Andrew HislopAll the chicks were wondering what that was... I told them it was Hurricane Mark. They said "Which one? Which one?" I can't tell sometimes. You could be twins. You're certainly 'Mysterium-ish' - I wander... "that thing that splits the globe in green," is a shoe looking for a horn. all the best thomas the nano migrating back to the source2005-10-06 13:30:16

Italy is nice this time of year. yes.2005-05-31 20:03:38
Hybrid HaikuJoanne M UppendahlTitle and last line... but you've captured the essence of life. (See Upon a Lion, Laconically) Nature's first green is gold, Her hardest hue to hold. Her early leaf's a flower; But only so an hour. Then leaf subsides to leaf. So Eden sank to grief, So dawn goes down to day. Nothing gold can stay.2005-05-29 19:09:31

Every Other Night, At The Paradise CafeRick BarnesRickBarnes: novel use of "pedestrian" ( v. intr.) powerfully and well told "story" I too would have been iterating and interpolating to fill the gaps in her life. She wasn't a co-ed with an anaconda in her bed? tew2005-05-17 08:36:05

Plug UpDellena RovitoThe mop plugged the sink and nothing drained down. Incoming water spilled out and over [her rims?]. An abundance of water was flowing dirty into a universe without [] boundar[ies], Seeping [] everywhere gravity l[ed] the force on it[]s downward course, everything in its path swept along [in] the flow [another ending]...

Ever Overhello haveanicedayThis was going along pretty well until I hit the "it" at the end of two lines. I think that needs to be addressed. "It" stops the flow of the piece. Otherwise, a lovely sentiment and construction that fits the piece. Overall one of the better submissions to date. tom2005-04-22 09:34:50
The Thought Of YouNancy Ann Hemsworththe patter of rain on the skylight lenses you into focus as the hands of mind fondle the soft thought empty arms yearn to bring you in close to smell the earth in your hair ears long to hear the soughing of your breeze rainbows of memories draped over the night 2005-04-11 09:24:33

HerzogRachel F. SpinozaMany come, few see, fewer conquer. Where he pointed, we looked. Where he stood, we under-stood. When he left, we wept. He did for us that which we needed done. And his time is gone, though not his deeds. In his place another shall dig and bury us. And we will be grateful. And not dirty enough. Put the infants in your mind to those breasts of thought. Watch them grow.2005-04-11 08:52:41
Remaining SuperiorMell W. MorrisMell- At least you are in a good State of Mind. Blah-té is Paté The queen is a bee. And such. Sundae. With a cherry. t.2005-03-20 11:01:11
Especially in springJoanne M UppendahlI should try, but I shan't... This is the vacuum into which we've all been sucked, The dust that we all breathe, That covers our eyes, That clogs our noses, That fills our hours. That drives our pens. Isms. The idea that it means anything. We're living that lie every day. And from that we have Theisms. And from the Theism the -ists. And the a-ists. And thus this. Dys-Carnally, t.2005-03-20 10:56:02
A Leaf Blooms In MaineRick BarnesEver the wordsmith: Barnes' barn never de-horsed, His poems, filled with fillies, Eat they from the hand? Sugar cubes no doubt. Laced with a fourletterword. 2005-03-20 10:34:40
