Authorsden is great except for its oft-wacky editor. I try my best to edit beforehand. Anyway, one thing that's so great is meeting other writers. One day I was maniacally depressed (despite the greatness of AD). I thought, I need to write. This is what came out. He gave me permission to post it. I appeared in one of his poems, so it's only fair anyway! Mr. Williamson is a good writer. I recommend reading his work. I'll try and put a picture with this one tomorrow. It is already midnight where I am, and 2 a.m. where Gene is.

 

     My Virtual Life with Gene

 

We write poetry, not for one another, and not to --

he, to the gulls, the sky, the rain

I, to the rocks, the sky, the snow

he, on the coast;  I, in the mountains

he with a scotch and good cigar

me with a beer and cheap cigarette

words well in us like waves, like drifts,

we ride them like tides, like avalanches

we are nothing to one another

but have sworn friendship forever

sharing the sky alone, its suns, its dusts,

its ineffable infinitudes.

Nice tribute. I guess I am jealous. Just teasing. Love and hugs,

Yes, Julie, ineffable is just the right word. I'm nuts about this
poem, as you know. Your writing of course is often powerful, always
beautifully penned, always a joy to read, and also highly recommended.
AF-g.
