Ever pump your fist and sing along to a great rock lyric? Or croon along to a superior bit of balladry? There you have it.<BR/><BR/>Poetry -- good or otherwise -- isn't just sappy greeting cards and love letters. Far from it.

The only problem with this is that I don't trawl back through the old comments looking for new stuff. On my other blogs, the comments are arranged such that I'm notified if someone has submitted to something old. Every now and then someone does this and whomever it is and I have a chat in what is effectively the boonies. It's all good.
