  the grammar table, set up in upper west side manhattan by ellen jovin, is the place to learn about the oxford comma, gerunds, conjunctive adverbs, et al.. "on rainy days, the competition between word proselytizers and the word proselytizers can be intense.

  'i'm often in competition with jehovah's witnesses for the space,' she said.

  earlier in the week, she found a favorite under-the-eave perch had been snagged.

  hoping they might take me through the day and.

  A Writer's Graveyard

  immersed in dickens and hawthorne, i cannot easily shake off the dusty antiquity of a bygone era.

  however, its scant reality inhabits, not the present, but my sad hearkening back to the shadows of long ago.. hot blood pulses anew within fingers i thought stilled forever in a writer's graveyard of unwritten verse.

  it is a reluctant awakening to a life much sadder than that endured by storybook friends who cannot see me, know me.. permit me, therefore, to reenter that precious twilight betwixt my present and the past, the faraway there of dearly departed poets.

  a walk in the moonlight will do me good.

  i shall understand inner turmoil in a new light, that proffered by the softly suffused illumination della bella luna.

  the black shadow of the walking dead, cast upon a meandering path by the gracious moon, will be my companion.. treading my way slowly, reverentially, to the frosty view above that patiently awaits me, i stop dead at land's end.
