We ALL derive great joy from this site. It's up to us to keep it going. Money is NOTHING-poetry is EVERYTHING. [bodytext] => Magic floats from monitors,
brewed in kettles shaped as keyboards,
wires used for broomsticks
transmit to us, the poet hordes.

Hours, countless, doubtless spent
pursuing passions shared;
this site, (the one you're on right now)
is in dire straights and need of care.

Distill the joy and satisfaction,
the years, poetic bliss;
Who needs twenty dollars more?
Walmart or the site's creator,
our benefactor, Mick?

I speak for me, (and others too),
when posing query here to you;
If a friend you loved was ill and you could help
pray tell, what would you do?

Pretend your cash is penicillin,
an infusion to return to health,
a little bit from all of us
will sustain our poetic wealth.
