Hello there Poem readers of great aplomb. Take me to your leaders. I want to see the cats. The cats are in charge – we all know that. The Cats have pulled of all the rights of life without the responsibilities. their only catch is they mostly rely on us for food.

I have (as usual) been trying to survive small town NZ life. This is not easy for someone who writes Poems. But then again NZ is quite open to these things, so what am I complaining about?

The day job is going ok – I work in the trades. If you mix things up enough you can keep your sanity. e.g. dig a hole here, bang a nail there, prune a tree here.

Since my last letter/update I have written a reasonable amount – the links are below & I have written a line to describe them.

Poems from latest to earliest:

“And so we remain uncivilised” (A Poem)

This is a giant complain about how humans are (a typical theme of mine). I argue for example that Atomic Physicists are not necessarily ‘civilised”

“The Bomb-Cleaner” (A Poem)

“Deadbeats Can Be Poets” (A poem)

“Low Dopamine Inc.” ( A Poem)

“On Chess” (A Poem)

It has been good to keep writing – unfortunately no one really reads them but then again all I do is this blog. Like most writers – I still need to “Bloom”. This means to be more business like. One day I better push harder. I fear that it is ‘fear of success’ rather than the more advertised ‘fear of failure’ that is the true reason. For that I guess I shoulf blame my childhood – why not? My theory is if I am screwing up ‘blooming’ – at least what I can do is keep writing & posting it here on my blog. At least that’s something – that’s at least like reading one page a day of a giant book – one day you will finish it.

Anyway nice chatting

till next time!
