since feeling is first
who pays any attention
to the syntax of things
will never wholly kiss you;
wholly to be a fool
while Spring is in the world
my blood approves,
and kisses are a better fate
than wisdom
lady i swear by all flowers. Don't cry
- the best gesture of my brain is less than
your eyelids' flutter which says
we are for each other: then
laugh, leaning back in my arms
for life's not a paragraph
And death i think is no parenthesis
~e.e. cummings

Just as soon as it magically jumps from the poem computer to the internet computer.
Or I get my lazy ass in gear and save it to a floppy.
Not sure which is gonna happen first, but you're good incentive.
