Reading makes a person graceful, the line of clasical Chinese poetry goes.






Li Bai, famous for wine
women and songs
Du Fu for the spirit
Of endurance during turmoil,
upheaval and war.

Both gentlemen wandered
Luoyang, Hangzhou, Chang'an -
marching towards history
as soldiers, generals
for Chinese poetry!

They certainly had their own style! I rather enjoy the subtle defiance in some of the poems.

Love ya!

You Look FatCalgary by RickthePoetWarrior

Using Calgary as a backdrop the author satirizes the self-serving nature of the public as it continues to fatten itself, not only physically, but egotistically as well.
