market-dress, singularly
each would now trace
pattern for club disarmament
scalpel postmortem needs be
death to thoughts linger...... me
forerunner needing four wheels
man and dog share alike prostration
the oldest superstition
is dogs can ask
crimson batik dress she loosely opts
navel becomes an obese slave
lapdog is protruding intrusion
truants for invasion
recipe of routs juvenile
cast-outs rebirth of her
woman, you raised the flagpole of his eye
dappled with a dormant hope
ritual man interchanging after much
broom with legs to school sweep
earths grub of culture
brightening flash in film kiln
farm dress...... brunt with vortex
ellipses assurance; in his hoe and hand

Your write is complex in that you very rarely say things in straight words, you then have to explain what you have said.
If you with your word power could combine the two then there would be a poet to feed the world being born not a lapdog.
Your title did you mean "dastardly" not dastadly, the title is very important and the correct spelling is paramount, as there are a lot of people that would not read after that first word.
You keep writing and take care out there, Yours Ian.T

It is a pleasure to write of your words, your English teacher and your family who taught you when you were young they were priceless.
I had my Godfather to talk to, so I had a broad accent as you can do in parts of England, it was a Wiltshire accent, one day I will talk some of the poetry here but with Jess and his Velvet voice I bow to his ways..
There is much to learn in the ways of poetry, and I seem to be running out of time here, but will stay as I am for a while with the odd prose thrown in and new poetry form as they are found and used.
Are you able to get books OK where you are, if not just let me know and I will see what there is in the world.
Our Jayne in Australia had an old dictionary that she loved but it was at the end of its days, I found one the same here and sent it.
So if there is anything you need just call me.
Take care young Man and stand tall with that faith it is good, Yours Ian.T
great
Ian getting your old books on verses will be nice , any ... here poetry anthologies are hard to get, except African poetry, that book i see on your profile is it a collection of poetry

The book you see on my profile page is an introduction to the Spirit world and Sadie's group there.
An adaption of one of the 125 audio tapes I have of me talking to the children from Spirit also the odd talk with the teachers there, They are on my web page under Spirit writings and there are more of Sadie, the Great Bear and the teachers, when time permits I need to transpose all of the tapes.
They are on:- yenti.co.uk if you need something to read, there are even workshop pieces from Neopoet, take care,
Yours Ian.T
