GREAT GRAVATATIONAL GRAVATAR!
A blogger said I looked too fat,
Now what did she mean by that…
My blogging thumbnail,
Seven years in the pale
Says nothing on how I’m now sat! 🙂
–
Technology challenges real
Prevent more recent reveal…
Film undeveloped
And selfies untaken,
The S.L.R. camera
Takes concentration,
With nothing new
To print I’m in trouble;
If she wants “me” current
I’ll make a plan on the double!
–Jonathan Caswell
A NEW SERIES!
A bucket list author assured
Himself that his work endured…
Did awful in sales
But he prevails
By putting pieces out as lures!
–Jonathan Caswell
I had me a book manuscript nearly ( ? ) completed…and suddenly decided not to publish, at least not at that publisher, as nice as the new staff . Maybe I will send it to them but not just now.

ON THE RECEIVING END,

SO…on this blog, BY THE MIGHTY MUMFORD and my other blog, THE MARVELOUS MUMFORD–and maybe some teasers at OUR POETRY CORNER–I’ll be posting poetry from the alleged book until I figure out where and how to formally publish it–if at all. 🙂
–
THE BOOK…is about my recent experience over the last six months or so, damaging, ignoring, losing two toes on my right foot by amputation, rehab. and recovery. The basic premise–with other observations added–is to look at how difficult doctors, caretakers and such like me ( ! ) make such terrible patients, when it’s our turn to be cared for!
–
Other bloggers use some titles repeatedly as categories. Each of mine here are what I plan to use in the book, which is, as you know, semi-autobiographical. These subtitles will be (in this series):
READY…AIM…FIRE!
(Who makes poor patients and maybe why?)
THE HEALERS
(Nurses, therapist, aides from hospital, rehabilitation and home care I’ve known)
–
REHAB RUMINATIONS
–
FOOD FOR THOUGHT
(Various related issues of interest)
–
THE END OF THE MATTER?
MY FIRST PUBLISHED BOOK
Sales of my book are “soaring”
Although, in three year’s imploring…
I sold only one
(I bought it, by gum),
My own sanity restoring.
–
Makes me wonder why
Another book I’d try…
A second tome–
No money brought home–
Maybe I’d be the only buy?
–Jonathan Caswell
My book, SPIRIT-LED LIMERICKS AND OTHER CHRISTIAN POETRY, is still available at amazon.com as a softcover and for their proprietary reader…Kindle-? Barnes & Noble has it for their Nook reader. I got mine from Amazon and used a freely available cloud reader, to read it on my computer.
