author's note:
Though I appreciate the services that Tripod has provided, I have decided to begin a new poetry blog at http://skyrope.blogspot.com/.
You can hear my own croak throat reciting this poetry at http://soultime.livejournal.com/.
I maintain a web site on Tripod at https://michaelpatton.tripod.com/, and a dream work blog--a "bloneironic"--at http://dreamsteps.wordpress.com/.
