Tell him pics or shens. ATOT requirement.😀
Lol, I will. He might just post some. Steve does not care much about the things regular people care about. I've known him nearly 40 years now. We met at the Venice Poetry workshop, where we were the two youngest would-be poets they didn't run off.
Anybody could attend, once. But if the working writers who made up that group didn't like what you wrote and thought you were a hack or a moon child or whatever, they would tear you a new one so bloody it made sure you would never, ever voluntarily come back.
The format was a circle of mis-matched chairs in a bare and otherwise completely unadorned storefront on a seedy back street in Venice CA. Each person, if they had something that week, would read it. Then each of the others would comment on it. But you were not allowed to say one peep back to any criticism, not one. You had to take it like a man, or go home. Best, most productive "classroom" I was ever a part of. :thumbusp:
If you didn't know Steve well, you might think he was nearly retarded. He can come across that way. Fact is, he's brilliant, though. He has one of the finer abstract minds I've ever come across. We bonded, among other things, over our love of Samuel Beckett. And chess.
We went to Europe together. He just stayed a month. I stayed 4 and 1/2 years. We've been friends ever since.
Anyway, this song cracked me up. He sent me another one, and I told him I almost thought of posting that one here, but thought better of it, as it would engender troll put downs. Then we got to talking, and he reminded me of this one, which I thought at least a few here might find funny. <shrug>
I did caution him that he'd mostly get put downs for feedback anyway. He said he didn't give a shit. He really doesn't, which is why he might just post pics of his g/f.
