Wild Wednesday

Okay…I have been thinking of the options for Wednesday.

I have had a few suggestions for what I could do…

And I have a few Ideas…but I am still on the fence because it feels like I am setting myself up for extra work…

I love the idea of doing some of the random things on the blog…but I am overwhelmed by the amount of work that I have as is.

I will keep Wednesday for the random stuff that pops in my brain.

I just don’t guarantee that I will do it every week.

If I do a video Book club discussion on Fae Corps Publishing’s YouTube Channel once a Month would anyone be interested? It is another thing I am being pushed to do that I am not sure if I should.

The current suggestions for Wednesday is to do a discussion on other people’s poetry…or a book club… or go back to the Webcomics… thing….or basically do a journal day(not really sure that is a great idea)…

Well…I started wild Wednesday so I was not limited on topic…to get some leeway for me to do blogging about… and I am finding out that though I have an open day for discussion…. I have no idea what to say.

Part of the reason why is because I don’t know what I have that anyone wants to hear. My poetry and my art are unique. So I feel like they are things that are interesting. Everything else is stuff you can find in other places online. Why would anyone be interested in my view on the normal?

This is a sincere question for me. I love doing the blog but I am struggling with the everyday thing. I am seriously considering dropping Wednesday unless I have some reason to post.

A day for me to discuss music

Lyrics

K ready?
One, two, three, four

[Verse 1]
If I were a fish and you caught me
You’d say, “Look at that fish”
Shimmering in the sun
Such a rare one
Can’t believe that you caught one
If I were a fish and you caught me
You’d say look at that fish
Heaviest in the sea
You’d win first prize
If you caught me

My 2 Cents –

This is just such a cute little song. And the trends with it brings a smile.

So many topics…. what should I talk about?

I will admit I am out of topics…Whew. This month is whupping my backside…and I don’t know what to say!

So, I was going to ask what I should do for the next volume… but I finished Immortality before I could get to today. Facebook suggested that I do Quiet screams next.

I actually want to ask a question. I had a live poetry reading thing in my local library. And I was extra nervous because of the parking situation with the library. It requires parallel parking. I can not parallel park. So my therapist suggested that I ask a complete stranger to do it for me. Is that normal? I feel like that is not normal and would create more anxiety. What do you think? Is asking for a complete stranger to park your only vehicle a normal thing?

So I wanna talk about my favorite Poets…since it is National Poetry Month.

I have always been fond of Edgar Allan Poe. His work speaks to the Goth heart in me. His story 0f not making it during his lifetime also hits notes of poetic tragedy and genuine goth nature…(I know I am weird.)

Another I have always loved was Emily Dickenson. Her work is almost opposite in a lot of ways to Poe. Flowery and light. Almost as though she were making the words themselves her lover.

In my teen years I discovered Irene Hunt’s Up a Road Slowly. It introduced me to two new poets. Sara Teasdale and Edna St. Vincent Millay. I was enamored by the idea that poetry could be just randomly inserted into books. I did not realize that would not generally happen anyway.

In more recent years thanks to YouTube, I have discovered Blythe Baird and Rachel Wiley. I adore their poems.
