I have found Poets Online to be a very useful resource of writers of poetry and sharing new poetry they consider of acceptable quality and appropriate to the prompt . I have responded to a few of the prompts posted there:

In God’s Image

Hydrocarbon Holocaust written under a pseudonym and published on the Poets Against the War Site

My Jesus
Rides Shotgun


I would encourage anyone interested in an opportunity to be part of a group of poets working on a common theme during a limited amount of time, or just looking for good a source of information take a look at Poets Online. Be a contributor, they have a new prompt every few weeks. If you don't get it published there, you still feel like people have had a chance to read it.

  One of purposes of this blog is to make links to some of my poems that have been published on line by other Journals and Poetry Sites:


Prairie Fellows has just been published in the June 2003 Edition of Prairie Poetry. I composed this after trading lies with a friend of mine from North Dakota who had lived and worked in Medora, and has a daughter married to a fellow from the high plains.



Exception to a Ruler was posted on another site when the Poets Against the War group was collecting poems to protest the Iraqi invasion . I composed it as a comment on the special exception quality of the recent effort. The title is a play on the slogan of Freedom Radio at Democracy Now brought to you by Amy Goodman who is a long time peace advocate.
