Bio

Hello.... My goal is to become the worst poet in History. Truth be told it is an ambitious goal, but I am determined to fail. So if I can learn what everyone is doing right and do the exact opposite, I am sure I can succeed in my failure. Yes!!

  • Hey Shawn,
    Thanks for getting back with me, I'm really excited about this group! I do actually live in Portland, just moved here a month ago! Thanks for giving me a heads up about my outdated profile :) Anyway, I'm excited to join the fun, but wondering if its possible to be late to events... it looks like you all meet up on weeknights, and I work pretty late/commute pretty far... If being late is alright with you and the other poets, let me know, and i'll try and make it to the next meeting!

  • Happy birthday yourself, Shawn! I have his collected poems, so I'm sure it's in there. You're more than welcome to borrow it, if desired. I know you're not able to attend tonight, which is sad, but good luck with your night's work!

  • Hi, Shawn,
    Glad I won't miss the first meeting! Looking forward to seeing where the Caravan leads.

  • Hi Shawn - I thought that image with the bee was really moving, it won't leave my mind. I look forward to the whole poem. I am also very moved by old people, the hidden personal history and wisdom they represent - I have a section with an old lady that just died in my novel "everything" that appears to match the mood of your projected poem. Also, I have to confess that I had not connected you in the meeting with you on this board until just now. :)

  • Hey Shawn,

    I really like your poem! What I like most is that the rabbit and peanut are such great friends. Plus, your images are really vivid (chalky sky, dragon flies, Jordanesque...excellent). Thanks for posting.

  • Hey there Shawn, So to post your poem, just go to files on the left side, and once you click it you can upload your poem. Please post your Peanut poem soon!
