...I think he has written many great poems. One of my favorites so far, is called "The Seedling" from his book: "Lyrics Of A Lowely Life" (1913) I am excited to learn about poetry and find new poets to check out! Thanks for reading.

Hi. I was flipping through the pages of one of my old notebooks and came across that unfinished poem. It has a date 2-6-13 I do not exactly remember the events that inspired it - either 1%er movement in NYC or something was happening in Gaza... I decided to post it here since there may be no...

Well, I have never really done this kind of thing before, it's obviously not professional, but I'd like to share. When Gemini shows its face in the sky, It will all begin. Tensions high, Dont know why? Shouldn't have paid attention. Planes dissapearing, and the media's smearing, any...
