Ok, I'm going to be sending up a couple of poems. I had to do several
poems for a creative writing course I took recently, and Poetry has never
been an interest or a strong subject for me, so go easy :]

There are two Poems that will be going out. The first is called Matrix
Run, and looks a lot better in the original, since it's centered and has a
nice Digital font used for it.

The second is called Goblinization, and other than a name most of you will
recognize that I cannabilised for the story, it's pretty straightforward.

Go easy on me, and enjoy :]

To paraphrase Mike Meyers (as Deiter, from Sprockets on SNL):

"Your poetry -- it pulls down my pants and taunts me."

All kidding aside, I have a very healthy respect for anyone who can even
write poetry, let alone actually having the courage to share it with others.

Guess that's why my songwriting career is in the toilet.

Bravo.

That courage bit is the biggie.

Being an artist (of any type) is baring your soul to the public, knowing it's
going to be hacked at ineptly with dull knives.

But, someone, somewhere, is going to experience your creation and go "wow."
And then you get to smile :)
