Let me interject. I've found a strange glitch.
The text bot entitled Joey occasionally signs its posts with the name Mike.
I'd like to suggest that this bug be fixed immediately, since it only causes confusion for the occasional human beings attempting to "chat" with the chat-bots.
Also I need someone to come wipe my ass because I just shat my pants. Offer good for the next three days*

yeah, i personally live to fill your beer glass with ha-ha's. do you want some chips? have you ever written a poem i liked? i can't remember, and i look at them all. do you? probably you'd say no, though, and send me into depression. depression is good, cause it makes me write better and depression is the prime product of poetry pc... i mean, nobody's selling diamond rings off romantic writers here. so, anyway's these two carbon molecules walk into a starbucks...

We're so opposite. Lately I've exposed my entire underbelly, not only here, but to the whole internet world. Photography forums, writing forums, medical forums. I've done that with my real name, and even have now published my real face. I don't know of but one other male in the world who is, on the internet telling about his passage rites. He's a famed and beloved Native American named Hunter Bear.
And joey is depressed. And I'm never depressed nor trying to sell anything now but public awareness that lupus DOES affect men, not just females, it affects full blooded men.
re: Everything Must Go - Bargain Basement Poetry
You see, joey's style is to be always about himself. Never of people, or of making a difference in other people. People need to know they are not alone in heartbreak or in illness. joey is depressed and depressive; sort of a little ball of string, tightly wrappped. When dropped, he does not bounce.
Last week I wrote a "good bye" to PC because I was pretty sure that I was going to die quite soon. That was just before I found a "miracle" drug, a simple tranquilizer, and so my dangerously damaged kidneys now are not spiking my blood pressure.
I'm putting two real faces on two REAL terminal illnesses: "my" lupus
and joey's need to inflict and spread depression toward others.
joey's great aim is to somehow make me feel depressed.
All that results is material for these off the cuff essays of mine.
JOEY (I cap for emphasis, not to shout) bandies claims and dismissals as if he were the arbiter of what is or is not poetry. I'm not a great poet. I'm not much of anything but lover, was, really. Or doer, was, really. Now my little world is about as small and wadded as joey's self (small ball of string).
What tickles me is when he says (and this is "bargain basement poetry" according to joey's negativist title, is that Reid is not even a poet. I don't bristle at that.
See, my life has been rich and interesting and rewarded in many ways.
Poetry for me began less than five years ago. I've sunk a long ways since then,
but soared well with poetry as my introspective and gentle friend.
joey and I are such oppposites: he, precious, snide always (me, sometimes), he as micheal bauer (joey is his pen name of personal import to himself.
My only pen name here "netsky" was chosen because at the time i thought we ALL had to have a pen name. net the sky. catch some with a fishing net, some flying fish at best. I like flying fish, see, they want and need to soar, if only for a moment, in open air, flashing, glinting, "look at me, I'm sucking air in the sunshine, happy!" (I joke gently.
I am a fish. A flying unemployed, slow fizzling fish. But I am flying and I am never depressed and I won't let joeys celebrate nor spread their sick depression onto others.
Lead by example. Joey said in this new thread he made for the sole purpose of highlighting me as a problem:

i think the only real problem i have with him is that he's just not a poet and doesn't care shit about poetry, but here he is,

Yes, here I am. And you, joey, are truly a little ball of string nobody needed to save,
all wound up in lies and contradictions, and best of all, you think you bait me to be upset, or bring forth any sympathy for yourself. Write me a poem in the next form?
Here, this poem about Tasha is applicable to ALL of the life opponents, all the toxic people I've ever meta. Tasha, though, was not nearly as unpleasant as you, joeymichael:

the bargain of the day from the non-poet Reid, soon to be cut out from the inventory.
any bids? It does not matter. I am happy and I am secure, knowing that the last things I ever will have done were poetic, human, humane and honest.
_____________________
Tasha
Let's make pearls
instead of quarrels?
Place a grain of sand inside me
—bide a while—idle wild
while my nature smooths the grit
until it turns a pearl—or pit.
I surrender—see your pearl?
This gift for you—its glow is amber
in the firelight on the beach
all the nights the embers reach
—for butter, salt, a bit of bread.
My life was that—and this is said
with no regrets—except that now
I am devoured
and so propose
we dance on in the moontime pale
strumming pearls of words on strings
forgetting knots and without clasps.
See our words float to the sky?
Many moons—our human sighs.

I write of actors, a tableau:
Reid: erstwhile Apollo
joey: gollum under the bridge
