Re: We 21st Century Poets!I'm wondering what kind of show it would be to involve poets. It's not like we do anything strange or exciting. Nothing TV worthy, I would think. |

Re: We 21st Century Poets!Word, I think it's a great idea. Poetry seems to be a dying art and if there is a place to spotlight poets on the history channel, that would be incredible. The 21st Century Poets. |

And move to the next step, digital, and save to disc, and copyright. Then I move to my website, then I pick what ones I want to add to the public. So, but the vast tool of the net is amazing, so we have a great tool. imagine writing letters to all your friends, and publishers, like the old days. Cramping thought, maybe, so the elders of poetry, kicked alot off ass when they where alive, and thriving. So we have a great tool, in the 21st century, so use it wisely. Peace John E WordSlinger Note to add, There is no returns on your gift. The gift of creating poetry. Enrich your gift..... 850 POEMS!! Guys and Dolls , this poet is an oil mine. ...................lol |

Nothing TV worthy, I would think. Am I wrong? A better idea, I am thinking is to locate a site. probably the same site WordSlinger is proposing , where we could read or vocalize our poetry-- some sort of site lke what the musicains / entertainers have , like "Jango" or "Alighthouse" for example.

Re: Re: We 21st Century Poets!Quote: Good point, Word. You got it. A little melt is like a pause to reflect....to take time to notice the good things and the beauty and the joy that is in all of our lives but often overlooked. Thanks for pointing that out. |

Re: Re: We 21st Century Poets!Quote: John, you mystfy me! I'm thinking of several menings of "to bawg the dogs? " To bag the dogs." This used to be a method ,in old Jamaica, to take pigs and dogs from rural country to a town market. The animals were put in crocus bags and taken on trucks or train ,along with rural farmers and higglers to town. ............lol In fact, you could not transport your dog nor pig on the train or bus or truck, unless you put the animal in a bag.........lol. I had an uncle, a RAF ex-serviceman, who delighted in silencing or subduing barking dogs,by barking and rushing at them/! ................lol. He once bit a dog that attacked him!............lol. Of course, the dog also bit him, and ran! ..........lol. No, he wasn't crazy. Just mischievous and drunk , most of the time..................lol.

The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.
