first person singular

Who me?
I love locution, grammar, etymology... etc
I judge people based on the softness of their toilet paper
Get giddy with new notebooks
Fall fast and hard for viridescent eyes
Horrible at underlining
I synchronize my breathing to the wave of the wiper blades
I sing loudly while driving solo
I was always a puddle jumper
Soaking in the cloudburst droplets
Get wet
Addicted to endorphins
I won’t pass up a Magic Hat 9
Won’t always color in the lines
I want more hours in the day to read
I want to do and be everything
I try
But not hard enough,
I feel

Hi -
I love what you have done to your blog...its much more pleasing to the eye...
I also like this poem...Especially the third line...The only thing is that my toiley paper softness varies on a cheapness basis...
Hey Frillytoothpicks! I just saw your comment now asking about the 1000Authors blog. Just send me an email (pjohnson06@jhubc.it) and I'll add your email to the list of people that can post on there. It's been slow getting started but I think once more people start posting this can be a great project.
Btw, are you friends with Dickey? I saw a comment from Dickey on one of your recent poems .... I haven't hung out with him in forever but one of his high school friends is a friend of mine from college.
Anyway, great idea putting up a poetry-blog site.
Take care,
Pete
