Favorite Poet: Emily Dickinson, who exhibited, in my opinion, in her poems, her supreme and unmatched mind.
THANK YOU for reading my poems, Please comment on and critique them when you can. Opinion and pronouncement, corrections and suggestions, applaud and denouncement, is each equally important and equally valuable to me, for without the discerning eye, are we not all the same? And, in the name of compassion, I will spare you any further babbling and just vibe you, no matter who you are, happy and fruitful travels on all your future orbits. - billpoet
