POEM FOR MARTINE (ghostwriter WordPlaya) Benito Martine please remove your black stockings and take off those uncomfortable boots! After all the night is young, and we have nothing left to loose. We'll take pleasure where we find it, and we will feel neither guilt nor shame. And we will school each other in the art of love, and by the way, what is YOUR LAST NAME? This poem is taken from a short story I wrote, where the character in the story writes a poem to me. I did this because a man never wrote a poem for me. I kept reading these beautiful poems that the men from MPFwould write for thier girlfriendsand I got jealous,so I wrote a poem for myself as if the male heroine of the story wrote it especially for me. Smokey, I'll let you guess who this male character is based on! LOL ******************************************************************************** "All Girls Should Have a Poem" For Valerie All girls should have a poem written for them even if we have to turn this God-damn world upside down to do it. R. Brautigan, New Mexico March 16, 1969

I enjoy writing and since rediscovering the power of poetry, it has brought me much joy! My favorite poet is Richard Brautigan, and I am a big fan of freestyle poetry, as I find it less limiting and most creative. I also like spoken word poetry. ...
