I have so many blog posts in the works & ideas, it makes my head spin. Also, my beloved cat, is trying to stress me to death. Again. First time was in October 2017... but, that's another blog idea, I'm sure. đ Things are heading in the right(ish) direction now, so I'm back to work! … Continue reading Beautiful Procrastination

BOOK REVIEW: Dead of Night by Chris Mc Geown
Dead of Night is another book brought to you by a fabulous person I âmetâ using WordPress. Chris Mc Geown over at Short Poems and Other Nonsense is an amazing poet. He crafts poems so dense & moving in so few words, I can barely express my awe. Chrisâs sister, Laura McGeown (I think I … Continue reading BOOK REVIEW: Dead of Night by Chris Mc Geown
Yahrzeit & “Apathy Blanket” (Poem)

BOOK REVIEW: The Complete Works of William Shakespeare â Poetry
I had every intention of writing & posting this last week. Then, my Dadâs car crapped out & I had to be his driver. I wouldâve rather re-read The Complete Works of William Shakespeare, to be honest. Shakespeareâs poetry isnât as well known as his plays; not by a long shot. However, many of us … Continue reading BOOK REVIEW: The Complete Works of William Shakespeare â Poetry
