ROBERT ZOLA
when the last dormouse has been flung
           from the last high window			

a branch:
and the claws of the bird
will loosen
when that woman reaches the fountain
when her shadow
darkens the water
before she sits to read
when i've twisted your bracelet
another 5 times
when the white blind
in that window is unrolled
when that yellow door opens
when your painted mouth
next says perpetual
when the infant near the kiosk wakes
when the tall man
and the small man
reach the gate
or at the opening of the octopus eye
oh the branch is empty

I invite readers to write in response to Mr MILLER)

JEFFREY MICHAEL MILLER
Poetry Frauds


My name is Jeffrey Michael Miller and I'm the author of the poetry book 
entitled From The Inside Out by Publishamerica. I want to take this 
time to talk about some self appointed poetry guru's who freely hand out 
misleading information. Some of these people that I won't mention by name 
parade around on every website and forum they can find expressing all their 
ideas and notions about the world of poetry while they themselves are the 
very things they are warning you the readers about. 

These very same people who give you information on how to become 
successful in the world of poetry are nobodies themselves with bad 
reputations that are documented on websites around the internet for 
being frauds for the most part. Some of these people have been accused 
of stealing the work of others and they have been ostracized and disowned 
by their very own publishers but they still  come on sites like this hiding 
the truth about themselves and making it look to you the reader like they 
are successful and sought after poets with good and informative information.
 
Do yourself a huge favor and ignore these people dishing out this garbage 
advicewhile trying to make other poetry groups and organizations look bad 
in the process. The reason why some of these people are so very mad and 
spew this kind of nonsense is because they have never won one single 
award or recognition from the organizations they are trying to ruin the 
reputation of. Their work was not seen as being good enough to merit 
a recognition or award in the free world so these people create their own 
forums with horrible reputations for all kinds of abuses and nonsense to 
be spread throughout the poetry world like a bad virus. 

They award themselves poet of the month on their very own forums and 
it's absolutely laughable and they do this because nobody else would 
award them poet of the month if they didn't do it themselves. If you took 
the time to look into some of these names you would find case after case 
of allegations against them so research the source of these poetry articles 
before you listen to the words of these people. 

These people logroll and review one another's books in attempt to look 
popular and their book sales come from one another with little interest 
from the general public.They sell to their own forum members who are 
mislead into thinking these people are prominent poets when they are in 
reality laughing stalks of the art. 

Don't be fooled by a snake dressed up in bunny rabbits clothing my friends 
and look into the source of the poetry information you're receiving because 
the garbage from so called poets out there is rampant. Self promotion and 
delusions of grandure are the only things they really know about and poetry 
is far from their knowledge base. 

If you prefer to listen to people who name themselves poet of the month on 
their own forums then please go ahead and do so but to me it stinks and is 
far from legitimate. Just remember that I warned you when you finally 
realize who you're reading information 
from. 

Always take time to know the source before you get wrapped up in someone's 
pretty and deceitful words. The poeple pointing fingers in reality should be 
pointing to themselves and not deceiving the readers. If it walks and talks 
like a poetry duck, my friends, then indeed it is a duck.

DYAN SANDEFER
Lawman Never Knew What Hit Him
			
boyish face, dimpled chin
deftly belie iron guts.

bullet-proof vest, tight pants
long leather boots 
women find so sexy,

mounts his bike with raw
authority, display of conquest,

Hung with paraphernalia
to fight evil, impenetrable,
or so he thought.

became the myth,
Seduced by his own swagger,

entered his pants
exited his heart,
a common barmaid bullet,

left the death of family 
before her work was done.
