Rhyme and Reason: July 2011
http://rhymeandreason3.blogspot.com/2011_07_01_archive.html
Thursday, July 28, 2011. Verse of the Day - Walt Whitman. I'd like to think my soul came out at night like Walt Whitman's but to be honest after a night of writing dry legal content, I fear it's shrivelled up and died in a corner of this silent house. So do we stick to these designed roles? Do I walk everyday into the same wordless lunchrooms and see the same people cowered over their sandwiches? Or can we seized the abstract, do the unexpected and finally change who we are? Night, sleep, and the stars.

Rhyme and Reason: February 2012
http://rhymeandreason3.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html
Wednesday, February 15, 2012. Ennui by Sylvia Plath. I can relate to Plath's poem as I feel bored today, listless at being part of a factor process that fills space and time because we have always filled time and space. Not with energy and light but with material as dull as heavy gray clay. And so it goes on. Ennui by Sylvia Plath. Tea leaves thwart those who court catastrophe,. Designing futures where nothing will occur:. Cross the gypsy’s palm and yawning she. Jeopardy is jejune now: naïve knight.

Rhyme and Reason: Verse of the Day - Edna St. Vincent Millay
http://rhymeandreason3.blogspot.com/2012/05/verse-of-day-edna-st-vincent-millay.html
Saturday, May 12, 2012. Verse of the Day - Edna St. Vincent Millay. It's been some time since I posted on here. It't not that poetry is superflous but there's the small matter of life. But poetry can take you places you want to be again in life such as the half remembered cliffs on a May day. See this photographer at http:/ www.flickr.com/photos/alphageek/show/. Afternoon on a Hill - Edna St. Vincent Millay. I will be the gladdest thing. I will touch a hundred flowers. And not pick one. With quiet eyes,.

Rhyme and Reason: January 2012
http://rhymeandreason3.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html
Sunday, January 29, 2012. Arizona poets - Alberto Rios. The Chair She Sits In - Alberto Rios. I’ve heard this thing where, when someone dies,. People close up all the holes around the house—. The keyholes, the chimney, the windows,. Even the mouths of the animals, the dogs and the pigs. It’s so the soul won’t be confused, or tempted. It’s so when the soul comes out of the body it’s been in. But that doesn’t work anymore,. It won’t simply go into another one. And try to make itself at home,. Hey there- Lo...

Rhyme and Reason: November 2011
http://rhymeandreason3.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html
Saturday, November 26, 2011. On the death of Ruth Stone. Ruth Stone has died and I didn't know much about her when she was alive. Except that she was very old. According to the BBC, her best-known work, including The Solution and Simplicity, came after she turned 70. In 2002, she won the National Book Award for Poetry, for In the Next Galaxy. She was 96 when she died. Stone's second husband, poet Walter Stone, took his own life in 1959 - the year of her debut - leaving her to bring up three daughters.

Rhyme and Reason: Claude Mckay on Summers in New Hampshire

Friday, July 20, 2012. Claude Mckay on Summers in New Hampshire. It's been a long time since I last thought of the lost poetry blog. I was surprised to discover I had posted this summer, although only just. It's funny to also note that the blog carries on without me, racking up hits from old posts. Does it need its initiator at all? Summer Morn in New Hampshire by Claude McKay. All yesterday it poured, and all night long. I could not sleep; the rain unceasing beat. But lo, there was a miracle at dawn!

Sunday, November 18, 2012. Les Buffham wins two awards at Western Music Association event. I realized a couple of minutes ago I hadn't posted on this blog since July. Is poetry really dead in my life or am I too busy? A combination of both, perhaps. And while this site did rather well without me it has crashed of late. Buffham was apparently named Male Poet of the Year, while his song, “No Wilder Place,” cowritten with singer Mary Kaye, was named Song of the Year. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Memoir book ...
