Poetry Day: Marcylius the Cad

Posted on October 3, 2024 by Charles Yallowitz

Poetry Day: Man of Verse or Volume

Posted on September 26, 2024 by Charles Yallowitz

Poetry Day: Lost Flights

Posted on August 22, 2024 by Charles Yallowitz

Poetry Day: Look At Us

Posted on August 15, 2024 by Charles Yallowitz

(The desire for attention is stronger today than when I wrote this poem.  Sad thing is that it seems to be more financially sound to do this.) Stupid stunts and sickness Done in the camera’s eye And posted without fears … Continue reading →

Poetry Day: Lonely Lyrox

Posted on August 8, 2024 by Charles Yallowitz

Posted on August 1, 2024 by Charles Yallowitz

Posted on July 25, 2024 by Charles Yallowitz

(Before I wrote the stories, I made a poem for Ichabod Brooks.  He was Ichabod Jones back then.  Also, he was in a science-fiction story where Earth was toxic, except for a few people who could return to the surface.  … Continue reading →
