~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

some etch a story
overly trite or diligently gory

some fabricate from pictures and dreams

maybe tears' lost loves
or just imagined scenes

(maybe even pinched from a magazine)

some write about fictional lives
or from the inspiration of previous scribes

but many will argue it really doesn’t matter
as long as it’s not written by a mad hatter

cause he’ll probably produce a hilarious whopper
conceived and dispersed in his own honor

You have described writers so well. I think I can fit into most of what you have described, except the role of the mad hatter. LOL!!!

Hey Jude,
I believe that most write from their own experiences, sense of humor, imaginations, and desires, yes that about sums it up for me.
I have known some mad hatters in my day that's for sure!!
Miss you.
Peace, light and love,
Amber

Wonderfully written, Jude ... I do write about my personal experiences or people I care about that touched me ... Throw in a few laughs now and then ... or when the mood strikes ;) Enjoyed your poem, Jude ...

Such refreshing honesty comes from your pen, and I love the feast of comments and agree...the madder the better, and humbug, ha!
Blessings,

For me, I relax, open myself to the universe and let the words pour though me. We each have our groove which is what makes it all wonderful to read.

I only write when the inspiration comes, usually from some special event and circumstance it seems. I will at times write just for the fun of words though. Good stuff, Jude. Thanks for sharing. Love and peace,

Humbug. The mad hatter is the bestest poetest conceitest word smith of all.
I asked the white rabbit. He agrees if he can have his tea.

The madder the better as far as I'm concerned; it's the hotbed of creativity that just might spawn an unobserved or inherent truth. Funnily enough, I've just written a poem called 'Alice at 90' where Alice's prior adventures are now the stuff of her very real days. I love para-realities as you know. I honestly think we write with our navel rather than the head or the heart at times. I've tried to write differently but nope; I just does what I does - even though I often wish I had a different 'poetic voice'. But self-aggrandisement is another thing. I feel sorry for those who get off on it and for those who take themselves too seriously. They make a rod for their own backs. Let's just do what we love and live a little, I say... Which is probably far too much as per u! :) Whopper-on, Kartero. xx

Not yet have I stolen anything I don't think though I think we all may get story "ideas" from things we read or see, I think that may be only natural...well I havent stolen anything from you, at least, thats good isn't it...? -e- (at least I dont think so)

I always enjoy a good whopper. I think there's a place where they honor them. The Friars Club and Liar of the Year, I believe.

Eh . . . For the most part I have written about my life and how I dealt with this life of mine. Boring, I suppose, but . . . Not everyone is perfect . . . I never write fiction and claim it is about "moi." Never.
