  • Happy 2022, Madmouth! I have adopted your list 'Bits and Pieces' as a beloved favorite, and found a good bit of poetry in it. Not sure I need to ask, but I'm thinking of submitting a few for publication, so I thought I'd ask your blessing, or give you a heads-up, or whatever, just the same.

    I'd also be delighted if you'd add 'tarted up ethnopoetics' to that list.

    A cold winter night's the time to cuddle,coddle,tiddle and twiddle.

  • A useful expression, if you are into the exotic, would be 'bof', the French eqivalent of 'meh'.
