Trust in your instincts
Sensing the progress you make
Step by awkward step

I wrote this in reply to Annette’s soulful haiku yesterday – https://annetterochelleaben.wordpress.com/2016/01/12/soul-to-sole/ – thought I’d share it here too 🙂

This is the blog of a woman who is seriously on the edge and I mean right ON the edge…no, not there… just a little bit further… further than that…no, further still…just a tiny bit more… just move slightly to the right a little…no, that’s too much…just move a tad to the left…that’s right, just there…now you’ve moved too far to the left… Damn, what part of the ‘on the edge’ do you not understand? Oh, and her matricidal boy genius, come devil spawn.

Always a pleasure 🙂
For the record, two people have inspired me to immediately write a poem in the last week. You are the second. Billy Collins was the first. Not bad company 🙂

There’s a great line in a John Hegley poem:
I believe that rules are there to suggest the possibility of breaking them,
but I don’t believe that rules are made to be broken
because that’s another rule
I have the same feeling about resolutions 🙂

I was born a socialist and Collingwood supporter Al. The first one you will be familiar with the second one needs www searching if you need new knowledge, Collingwood Football Club, both lean to resolving never to make resolutions!! And I like the sound of John Hegley, a socialist perhaps?

Well he has been to Melbourne Al, I am pretty sure he is the John Hegley who did stuff at our world renowned Melbourne Comedy Festival back a bit, now that is another good reason to include Melbourne in a visit to Australia.(most comedians are devout socialists I believe)
