The Failed Poet
I have poems to write and stories to write but have been having a bad week. I need to do this to purge my feelings and am going to share "To Win Just Once" by The Saw Doctors. "Same Oul' Town" is a gorgeous album and was playing as I put these words down feeling like a failed poet.

This is a new one for the After The Parade Vocal Challenge.

On Comedy
Introduction I canโt write comedy. My friend Bill OโNeill is starting a Comedy Section in the Vocal Social Society but I probably wonโt be able to contribute any fiction for two reasons.
