Hi Couch,

Your words often come off sounding like a pronouncement, whether you intend them to or not: "it's not much. weak hook, story, imagery and wordplay. not to mention some awkward lines." Those are merely your opinion, and I take them for that because you are entitled to perceive things any way you choose...but to imply that someone who sees things differently than you do is wrong is simply ridiculous. It is by making such "pronouncements" as though you see yourself as some kind of omniscient lyric god, that makes the rest of us self-acknowledged mere lyric mortals either laugh or cringe. For myself, I tend to laugh simply because your appointment to the god pedestal was a self appointment, so the title is a bit empty.

We are all struggling to get to that magical place where our work gets to speak for itself. Professionally, I am seeking whatever assistance may be out there. I won't hold a reservation for you to any of the future workshops, but I would sure encourage others to participate who also find magic in being in the same place as other creative individuals.

Good luck,
Bobbie
