I think Jim should have to post his EPIC before we start something else, after all, it was HIS idea.   He's had plenty of time.

Kris:

So what you are saying is you want Ron to remove the Poetry Workshop from the forum for a couple of years.  My anal retentiveness prevents me from posting anything that I don't think is ready to be posted ... I'd be happy to post samples if that is acceptible to Nan.

Jim

P.S.  No problem with sonnets, Nan.

Hmm, I wonder if Ron would be so kind to "guest teach" us the next class in writing better prose. Will it help if I say please ?
Please Ron ? I really would like to learn more about prose/short story. I promise....no spitballs during your class.

Nan,

I'm in on whatever it is we do.

JB,  

All you need is a series of those poetic "cleansings" and you'll be just fine.

That was SOMEWHERE... and it was round trip ... I said a one way ticket to ANYWHERE... hehe....what's with the toenails?? LOL

Hey, back to the subject... let's work with Alliteration... whaddya think? maybe do a series of classes on different poetic 'tools of the trade', so to speak...

Perhaps pandora could be persuaded to participate with these pragrmatic passionate poetpeople... alliteration is possibly pandora's perfect excuse for pretending to perfect poetic pieces. How 'bout it, Teach?
