Manic In Love In The Men's Department Comments

Chuck, Sometimes only through the reaching, do we give ourselves the proper - - - thinking? Either way, would be O.K., as long as there is yearning for the learning. B.V.A.

Despite poetic license - -Mens should be men's; of course Kohl's department store doesn't know the difference unless thay have to pay extra for the apostrophe and choose to wallow in the muck of their own academic indifference and ineptitude. You, however, Sir, are a master at PUN-ishingly short verse (your longer ones are verse) and the puns are exquisite in their occasional boldness and ubiquitous subtlety. Trying to find a place to include you as a writing friend, but that link eludes me. I like your style and your titles are most intriguing.

It works for me. It's quite a bouncy piece, I enjoyed it. Ez

Free Verse RULES! cause this is what I feel like when I try to FORCE a rhyming verse...clunky...but you did it so well.

Not clunky, just a lot of fun with a lot of work behind the fun. Entertaining! : ]

A wonderful poem, Chuck. really brings me into the pictue in the ame way that Steve Mrtin does in Shopgirl. Thanks, Gershon
