About Me

Suppose you sat writing at your desk / Between days, long before dawn, / The only one up in town, / And suddenly saw out the window / A great star float by, / Or heard on the radio sweet voices / From wandering Venus or Neptune, / A little hello from the voids. / Who would believe you in the morning / Unless you'd practiced for years / A convincing style? / So you must learn to labor each day. / Finally a reader may write he's certain / Whatever you've written or will write is true. / Then all you need is the patience to wait / For stars or voices.Carl Dennis, "Useful Advice"I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4
