      This poem is about what you get from it

          You are the reader I am the writer

          1. Have you read Benneveniste? “no I without you” (semantically), so really I respect your lack of transparency, and though you engaged me as a ‘reader’, I am no more informed as a person who feels that barrages have been unfairly maintained against me.

          2. Chrissy says:

            I can’t control how others feel when they read my work. No, I haven’t read that author.

          3. Wow, you are very blasé about others giving comment. Respect!

          4. Chrissy says:

            Sorry if you feel that way, I could be moody. Much respect & thank you for reading.

          5. Moody moody chicken broody. Do you own the typewriters you write on?

            Haha good one.
            I used to own a typewriter, long ago. I use an app on my phone to type fragments of poems and such. Mimics sound and keys. Love it.

          7. New retro! I have a typewriter, Olympus splendid 66. It work and makes quite a lot of noise, but I feel more like Hemingway when I use it than an app.. Blah blah. What’s your favourite author these days? I haven’t found better than Steinbeck over past year. Fiction tires me to think about plot, thereby be a trick to do that.

            Fantastic. I miss mine. But, I feel like those days are so long gone, and I’ll leave the typing for the young generation. I lived through it. I was a teenager in the 80’s so I would type my poems! As for fiction, I read everything and I will disappoint you because I love basically all writers. From Virginia Woolf to Stephen King, to EL James. I like trash, I like smut , I like modern literature and some paranormal romance (J.D Ward, & Charlaine Harris,) In the moment, I’m reading a Montreal writer who lives in Brooklyn- her book is outstanding. I met her at a LIt Festival and appreciate her unique style. The Mystics of Mille End is her novel. A modern young writer who brings her own life experience and home town to her book. Almost finished it. And I’m reading some young poets.

    To remain unprovoked and endure the pain, something I usually wish I had the strength to do. <3
