@Russell C Smith Three neon sentences stop me this morning:

"We live in a world where frittata rhymes with medulla oblongata.

Ten out of ten people on the planet prefer peace over war.

And yet, war still rages."

One is a brain delight.

Two are gut punches.

Just another Substack morning.

Russell-- it took me a minute to check out your work, and now that I’m in, I’ll probably neglect it most of the time. I’m trying not to spend so much time here. But I am definitely in; you’ve got good ideas AND good sentences, and we never have enough of either. And thanks for the restack, too!

Karl,

It looks like you do dig Noir films/books, and there are some noir prose poems waiting for you when you drop in for another visit.
