I have had several online conversations with individuals, many from the UK, who blame the USA for the troubles in the mideast. I have to remind them that these problems started a long time ago (they need to consult the old testament) and these people living over there for the most part live in the 6th Century. I also have to tell them that it was the UK who is responsible for having set up multiple countries through colonialization. Pakistan and Inda once were one nation and England ruled there. But, nope, to these idiots its all the fault of American CIA ops.

I would hope that anyone who reads my poetry understands that I write what comes to my mind and it doesn't mean I'm the reality of the words. I mean that just because I write about alcoholism does not mean I am the character in the poems. I write about those I've known and those I know and a very wide grouping that is of sinners and saints, those who know who and where they are going and those who are completely lost. I am empathic. I write in the first person because I feel the reality of what I am writing about. Like Dean Martin pretending to be drunk while performing I am not what it may seem. Just a thought as I know some out there who read what I write see the words and not the art or the understanding of the problem I am commenting on, nor do they understand that the comment is for the purpose of illustration and not my own personal reality.
