Poetry when skillfull done is a way of dressing in a
pleasing form an idea. And poetry without rhyme or meter is prosaic. Poetry can be fit for music, or capable
of bring that innner chuckle. Much of mine is of the latter type. Some however of my poems are serious.
This site contains a sampling from a 3-year period in the early 90's.

It is by ideas that we are separated
from the animals and Yahoos. And by ideas we meassure the person. Poetry is ideas dressed to please. The
production of Wordsworth, for example, has measured him as myopic. I want to be counted as a seer of what ought to be.
There is an alarming laxity in the production of research, education of public and doctors, and standards of
FDA approval for drugs, as well as the monitoring of safety and effectiveness of drugs.For 2 chapters of the best book on how big PHARMA has manipulated the above and much more by Doctor Marcia Angell (Harvard Professor and former editor
of New England Journal of Medicine).
Poetry is a way to dress thought to delight. Satire and humor are lectures dressed to please.
