POETRY IN MOTION
Poetry is the emotional release, even for epic poems such as The ILLYAID and for poems such as the CHARGE OF THE LIGHT BRIGADE. There is so much energy, emotion, and angst that goes into writing poetry that the reader comes to know the heart if not the soul of the writer. Enjoying a poem is easier in this light as there are many who would not go out of their way to buy a poetry book but love a good poem.

BOOKS, BOOKS AND MORE BOOKS
Anyone know the biggest library??? I certainly don't know how many books I have but it is fairly extensive. I have had someone call it eclectic. I suppose that is good. I would like to think most people's are eclectic, especially those who presume to spout an education. It is amazing that you can have an extensive library and not be eclectic. My brother, a classical musician, had an extensive music library but not electic, hence he had no clue who Fleetwood Mac was. Not that anyone needs to be either way. We are Americans and free to know or not know. Ask me about a major film star is and I would problably give you someone from the 1980's going backward. I have no clue who is a major film star now, except perhaps Colin Firth, Meryl Streep etc. both of whom I know since prior to the year 2000. Anyway. Books, music, films whatever we espouse in whatever manner defines us and parts of what makes us us.
