Hi Stan, these both are nice. In the first I like the thought of your poet's 'wearing it on (his) sleeve.' To me that means he's always making a big deal out of it and letting people know how he feels.
Thanks for peeking in on my other fun blog yesterday. The MidWeek Blues meme is pretty small. I started out helping Rebecca with it and still it goes on, not dying but just bareliy alive. I'm up now for both posts and alrady revamped my haiku this morning. ..
How we put on history to suit an idea of ourselves. Hmm....

ReplyDeleteI'm reminded of one of the more worthwhile lines in Robin Hood, Prince of Thieves:

Thanks Jim; I was curious - checked it out - liked what I saw.
ReplyDeleteHaiku - Is it really HIS?
ReplyDeleteThanks Gabrielle; Not by my reckoning.
ReplyDeleteWonderful - provocative and profound.
ReplyDeleteAnd if we don't like the history, I guess it is changed? Ultimately, what is the truth?
