Father. Author. Poet, if you’d like to be generous. Athlete, a distant … 7th? Aspiring goofball. And we don’t have to talk about the rest.

Interact with me here or on my aging, old school blog: http://thealmostcrime.blogspot.com.
Yes, that’s right I’ve been a CHRONIC dabbler. Yes, that’s right. For YEARS.
I didn’t do all this this December (+the end of October). Nevertheless, I HAVE been busy…

Ho-ho humdrum! Hee hee heebie-jeebies!

Don’t mind me. I’m having a laugh at some of the spelling errors Kindle found in The Second Coming of Christina.

Have any funny “spelling errors?” Please share! I could get used to this.

I wrote a #poem. Of course I did. Look: you don’t HAVE to read it.

Got it in one.* Forgot my hashtags, though.

*Two, actually. Forgive me the expression. (Had to delete the first post because it had a typo.)

I found this is a book I wrote in … 2014? That I have gone back to edit and publish. Erie.

Cursor because I decided to capitalize things, but the words have been mine for at least a decade.

People don’t like to be persecuted for no reason? Weird.

I guess I shouldn’t talk. I’m not Hispanic, and the quote stank of speculation. Maybe if I was Hispanic, I would suddenly enjoy being persecuted for no reason.

Is it just me?

One eighty-four declined to say
Whether or not they’d go,
Six answered yes. The funny bit?
One person stated, “no.”

#poetry, and honest-to-goodness my chuckle was audible when I saw that no. That is funny, isn’t it? Isn’t it??“Look: I’m definitely not coming. Fuck ya’ll.” 😂
December 10, 2025 at 1:40 PM
😅. That’s a relief.

Oh good. It’s a scrimmage, then? At least we’ll be able to log a W even if we also have to log a L.

Serious question, though 🙋‍♂️. Am I legally allowed to get this “cute” with the title page? It’s a first draft. Please take a look.

So, I love Ms. McKinnon most places onscreen. I just feel like she asked me to suspend my disbelief on page one, after which I had to offer it paid sabbatical. My disbelief and I are no longer on speaking terms and I’m worried a severance package is in order.

Like, ground me in something not weird?

The text makes the title change official. Saga resolved.

I’m trying to be a good little author and concentrate on selling my #books, but you know. If I could distill my autobiography to 56 syllables and metaphors were allowed, I’m pretty sure this would be it.

This #poem is called, “I Have Questions.” I’ll take your questions at the end.*

*So long as they’re different from my questions.
December 2, 2025 at 10:53 PM
Q: Wait, don’t the last two lines have 11 syllables each?

A: Yes. But I really like the phrase “unimpeachably indicted,” OK? It’s kind of the seed for the whole poem. So I’m going to keep my last syllable and eat it, too.

Q: You want to talk about your current creative non-fiction #WIP… thingy?

A: Well, I really wasn’t going to. But since you asked, yeah. One of the things I’m doing is critiquing my own poetry. Hopefully in a candid, entertaining way. Like so:

Today I took a deep dive into the unmatched sock pile, hoping to match a bunch of socks.

But I only managed 26 pairs.

Sold another two #books today! You can eyeball my sloppy longhand.

Not completely satisfied with this one. The punctuation isn’t exactly what I wanted and I left a title off. Anyway, I’m going to stop now because my brain hurts. Hope this floats someone’s canoe…

I’ve really done it now. 😂. Well and truly Sassy on the log. Homeward Bound, anyone?

Anyone can interact with this #poetry. It says so at the bottom.

Did I do a thing?

(I imagine, I don’t know … POTUS reciting this poem to me. And he’s very proud that he remembered all the words. OK? So be kind if you want that invite to the demolished remains of the East Wing.)

“I put the ‘b’ in subtle.” 😂

OK, I’ll bite. First and last pages? Book 1 of 2? Here goes…

Asked and answered.

(But really more because of the content than the transcription, I guess.)

Who’s that idiot with his paddle in the air? That’s me! The USAP* knows what I’m doing … it’s probably just horrendous follow-through technique.

Never too tired for, “One more game.”

OK, I think I understand why #haikus are so popular on BlueSky.

It’s because they’re short! Right? That’s got to be the ONLY reason folks don’t write a #sonnet every day.

Well I’m here to tell you that my personal Kool-Aid is just sugar and water. (It’s safe for the drinking I swear.)
