HeartBeats on the Oscilloscope of Life

Come inside and Read Me Like a Book.

   1.21.2004  
I've written "The Poem for the New Year 2004" It isn't as grandiose as I had planned, as if I can plan to write. I was revisiting my old "Electric Poetry Group" which used to be a club, and posted it first there on the group. I haven't even visited that section of my website for ages. It's weird to see it is still up on Yahoo's server. It isn't "alive" anymore. At one time I had about 20 members, and I quit posting because I felt as "moderator" I had to explicate all the poetry people posted, sort of like a professor at school. And since that's what I wanted to be early in life, it was pretty neat, but time consuming. Who knows, maybe I'll "invite" some poets to help make it "active" again, but truth be told, there are far too many "poetry groups" on the internet, and most have so many members I wonder if anyone takes the time to read. I have retained my membership in the Poetry Angels group which I recently joined because Meg, the owner of the group "instant messaged" me and asked me to join. I thought that was pretty great, so I joined, but there doesn't seem to be much "activity". I don't know if I'll attempt to gain readership this year through groups. For the past two days, I have emailed 8-10 email addresses for people who list "poetry" as one of their interests on their Yahoo profiles. I now have 43 big hits on the main page to ElectricPoetry. The guestbook has one entry. It's a start. The new site didn't even exist two weeks ago! I plan to "invite" as many people as I can to read the poems on the site, and hopefully by being "active" myself and promoting my work, I'll be creative a bit more this year.

The Book is (forever being)written. The Pages are the pages of time. With the passing of time, Is the turning of a page. Read Me Like a Book again. These are the poetic outpourings of one feeble soul who has had a gift for words and verse since 1967. This is the concerted effort to "publish" the collected works of Michael F.
