hi David,

and thanks for your thoughts.

I think I'm probably guilty of 1 to 3 to varying degrees. #4 isn't a problem for me (I don't think) - if I can workshop a piece about me ex in Charon's, I think I'm relatively safe on that front - *grin*, and I must confess to being ignorant on the concept detailed in #5, so again, I learn something new.

And yes, I'd like to think that as I come to understand the many facets of contemporary poetry, I'll eventually learn to make fewer mistakes.

Again, thanks for dropping by.

Scotty
