Some constructive suggestions as opposed to the perpetual stupid banter and insults so prevelent here. Naturally, poetry relies on sensitivity and emotions. You cant just crank out poetry mechanically. One has to be appropriately inspired.

Still, people do seem to appreciate the poetry section the most and it is a bit light in content. I suppose I could work on some more. It passes the time, and contrary to what my old pedophile American literature 1865-1945 professor had to say, writing IS NOT a chore and something that has to be forced. Its rather enjoyable. But he had a thing for young boys...you wouldnt believe some of the interpretations of stories that he came up with. They all involved child molestation. I doubt thats what the authors of these American classics had in mind. But I digress.

Yeah, Ill work on some but on topics other than cutting? That may be tough. Plus, its Cutter Carl Sandburg who pens these poems, which makes a different subject matter difficult to justify. CUTTER Carl Sandburg, I say. But Ill think it over.
