I heard it is National Poetry Month in the US and so I will need to step up to the plate before the month is out. Must be because it's also my birthday month. There is also a new Poet Laureat in the US and whereas I have forgotten his name I know it's not me. How could it be? I haven't touched a poem in a long time. But it's been on my mind though. It pays $35,000.00 a year and you get an expense account of, I think, $5000.00. That'd be okay as long as it's part time and I can continue to work. Otherwise I'd not be interested unless I could weasel out some kind of graft or similar type of corruption that would help it pay better. I'll work on it and start boning up on my poeming in the meantime.
