200 per page Copyright 2002 by:MARK V SHELDON At 25 per page There is not much room to see The talents of the seasoned sage Or novice yet to be... At 35 per page The improvement's minimal For they still roll off of the screen At rates quite criminal Although 50 per page Comes across a doubled chance The poems die at such young age And vanish at a glance 75 per page Merely hints at what's revealed This number is too small to gauge What works remain concealed At 100 per page Verses fare a better time Still, it's not easy to assuage That cut-off line of rhyme Now, 200 per page Is the setting truly hip To free each write out of its cage For Passions make up P.I.P.!

Sandpiper: I'm pleased to share the page with you. ![]() Krystopher Morris: Ah, young grasshopper -- you flatter me, but there is plenty of wisdom for us both to master... ![]() Daniel J D... Do you mean... life...? But seriously, I'm simply referring to the settings on the main window of Open Poetry #23 (et. al...). At the top of this window is this very cool little selection box which allows each reader to customize how many poems appear on their monitor, and I'm simply recommending that every one of us keep it at "200 per page" in order to give everyone equal opportunity to be read since, as I'm sure you know, these blue pages scroll VERY quickly, and frequently many poems get "rolled over into oblivion" if people are only seeing 25, 35, 50, etc. poems at a time. So, I thought I'd write a poem about it... that's all... (or is it...? ![]() -MVS "AS ABOVE SO BELOW" |

Riley, I like your setting. ![]() Noah, despite your 25 per page selection, you always give everyone equal time, so you're an exception. Christopher -- indeed they are, but they hold true across the timeline... -MVS "AS ABOVE SO BELOW" |

A New Year's resolution? A wonderful thought here, Mark, to resolve to be aware of 200 other heartbeats daily. May ripples of LOVE |
