Stinky Boy: Notes of an Online Journal
“Stinky Boy”
Then I had a reputation,
So all the kids would play with me
Cause they didn’t want to be hurt,
Tho’ one boy wanted a black eye!
I made that stinky boy sit down,
And then took a purple crayon
And drew a bruise under one eye,
‘N I blacked out both his front teeth.
What I just wrote reminded me —
When I was ages three and four,
I’d eat blue clay in nursery school.
Don’t think I’ll tell you anymore.

Your growing collection of 'journal-poems', Kathy, is a valued gift to the world. A finished collection is the type of book I would buy for my grand-children - {and when it comes to books, I choose carefully} :))

Hello Josh, and what a supportive comment to come back to see on Day 5.
I never thought about ever dreaming of a slim book of published poetry, so thank you for letting me fantasize for a few minutes this early morning.

Thank you Ahavati. The scenarios have been coming to me as if they know the timing for their outlet is at hand. I have mixed emotions with how these thoughts are making me feel. There'll no doubt be more, but how deep the well only these forthcoming days of the NaPo will tell.

NaPo is EXCEPTIONAL this year. The quality of offerings has surpassed previous years by a landslide. I attribute it to the energy within the membership itself being unified and supportive - as well as understanding and surrendering to the Spirit of NaPo.

Thank you dear... that is why I am here, and why I will be delving wherever it takes me. I know whatever comes, you of all people here will understand. Especially after these first entries that will have started to shed light on early times as it were. xo
