SAFE DISTANCE EDITION: Stone Soup Croutons, 9-23-20: Diagnosing the Wind

Stone Soup Croutons is a weekly poem I write using lines and impressions picked from Stone Soup's open mic readers and features. I figure out a title (and sometimes the rest of the poem) later. You can read the other ones I've done since 2015 here.

I also have a book out now collecting the best of my first year of poems. Click here to purchase it.

To paraphrase Lorne Michaels, this poem doesn't go up because it's ready, it goes up because it's Friday morning.

 Hello everyone. So Stone Soup Poetry is back. We got to meeting again this past Wednesday, and I wouldn't have had it any other way, given the death of Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Given the outpouring of tributes, it's no surprise this poem turned into another tribute piece for her.

I have miles and miles to go today, so I will wrap this up. Thanks for reading.


Diagnosing the Wind
for RBG

God and Devil play ball
with the earth argue over
the results of everything.
The Devil is the cynic
about the outcome, is
just as upset when he wins,

And Lastly

Patricia Carragon and Dana Baker close out our planned Ruth Bader Ginsburg tributes for the week. hank you for reading Oddball Magazine throughout this tumultuous week.

I Love This

Poet Karen Greenbaum-Maya sent me a poem, and I had to ask Eric N. Peterson to produce some special art. I can't thank these two enough. The Ruth Bader Ginsburg parade continues over at Oddball Magazine.

The Eric Show?

Today our amazing artist Eric N. Peterson is joined by poet Jackie Oldham. Thanks for keeping the RBG tribute train going at Oddball Magazine.
