Have You Ever Seen A Ghost? (Short Story) - 7/21/2009 1:06:07 PM
I really liked the thrown-together style of this piece--very Beat, and reminds me of Kerouac, or at least how Kerouac wanted to be. I, right now, am struggling with whether my first impressions are better for their clumsiness or whether it is better that I meticulously rewrite each tale word by word. Something tells me that there's genius in "typing, not writing," as Capote once said about Jack K., that gets erased when we pore over our work too heavily.

This is a very touching story, but I'm having trouble following the grammatical scheme. I would like to learn more about modern poetry, as I haven't read much post-Bukowski. I guess I'm wondering, mostly, how the choice was made to capitalize at the beginning of some lines and not others. Also, "homourously"--is that a typo or meant to be a statement about the death of laughter? Any insight into this would be greatly helpful, as I feel very out of touch with modern literature asking this. I've talked to those who have been in close hand-to-hand combat in my generation's war (The War on Terror, or Global Struggle Against Extremism), and it's this type of respect that I hope they get one day.

I hate to be one of the rude comments you talk about in this very piece, and this may be a generational thing, but I feel like these types of feel-good motivational statements are getting to be ruinous. As a solid member of the Mr. Rodgers generation (born in 1984), more self-esteem boosters and being told that somebody loves us isn't exactly what we need. We need someone to tell us to get off our bums and do something for the world, for someone else or just for ourselves. Maybe, when life hands us lemons, instead of sharing our burden with someone else we just need to learn to swallow and take the consequences.

Have You Ever Seen A Ghost? (Short Story) - 2/4/2009 2:16:11 PM
Excellent story my friend, and you write good
As a matter of fact, I can relate to this and think of it as natural
I have had many encounters with ghosts during my life, and sure can tell you some to make your hair stand up.
England is famous for this kind of thing, and I was fortunate to experience the other side as it is called on many occasions
may be I should write about them, never thought of it
Thank you for a wonderful write

The Unforgiving (Short Story) - 12/28/2008 5:49:01 AM
Adults who abuse children, and that was a mild form of abuse, they never understand that the smallest amount of fear and anger pushed upon a child can be traumatic, and the effect of childhood trauma can last a very long time. A very good story, Willaim.

Very romantic, can relate. Prefer the alternate option. Patrick
Time waits for no one (Poetry) - 12/1/2009 2:21:10 PM
Such loving gestures and sentiments in this poem, William. You bring us insight as to how a truly loving relationship deepens with the advancing time and changes, rather than diminishes. Blessed are the couples who meld together over the years, rather than fall apart... literally and metaphorically. Here, warmth and depth increases rather than wanes. Most beautiful rendering.

Time will metamorphose itself from a cute little boy to an old geezer holding a crowbar to beat you to death, and to time, love isn't included in the equation!
