With words my mind is filling, now overflowing and constantly spilling. Started this new found passion can't control, images steadily pouring from my soul. Just as I put down my writing pen, i'm picking it right back up again. Not sure it's a blessing or a curse, concentration on anything else has gotten worse. Thinking this must affect all artist the same, can't be good this early in the game. Gripped by a strong hand of conviction, obscure is the line that separates addiction. Numerous thoughts must have been suppressed, now escaping like convicts under duress. Finally putting words to paper was all it took, gave life to the idea of writing a book. Acknowledging how wonderfully we are made, by sharing these thoughts on a printed page. Appreciative of this awesome sensation, your enjoyment being the sole motivation.Mark Elliothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18304017956167817892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3889371113323991600.post-51320629571153243712009-05-17T20:00:00.000+01:002009-05-17T20:00:00.000+01:00Mark,

Sensationalized then hypnotized they're making us fools. Overly critical and overtly political is what you peruse. Never do they offer their personals to be put in the news. Oh they've been caught occasionally by snooping camera crews. But it's anonymity baby this time they choose. Somehow your exact quote is what they lose. Making the headlines while giving you the blues. Yet we yearn for the heroics of sports cause we can't fill the shoes. The criminal mind we can't excuse. White collar crime while making a dime often times manufactures a bruise. Nestled neatly in between are cartoons movies and zoos. Yes it's in the news and soon to be refuse. That is until it's found on a counter or draped over a stall in a restroom. Be careful what you say and do, don't drop clues. Or you could find yourself "In The News"!

It's like looking into a mirror of poetry. I'm just getting into blogging so I haven't created one yet but it is at the top of my list. I was interviewed on napervillemom.blogspot.com there are a couple of samples there from my book. It has a variety of poems in an attempt to make it a wide appeal. In fact one listed "Open To Interpretation" was written because of how people try to classify poets (put them in a box) but people like us are creating not stagnating.Mark Elliothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18304017956167817892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3889371113323991600.post-65399692685292376032009-05-14T20:59:00.000+01:002009-05-14T20:59:00.000+01:00Hi Mark,
