-- i think that 7 out of every 10 mcn poems are about love - for
all us lobsters and dogs and humans -
love poems are my favorites - i try to write them and sometimes i
succeed - the trick, i've found, is to paraphrase a mcneilley poem -
this works pretty well as long as no one has read his stuff.

poems and a story by Michael McNeilley :
Michael McNeilley was
Founding Director of the National Student News Service;
worked as a reporter and correspondent in Washington, DC; and has
published hundreds of poems
and stories in magazines such as New York Quarterly, New Delta
Review, Poet, Chicago Review,
Oyster Boy Review, Cross-Connect, Sonoma Mandala, Hyphen, Minotaur,

He was co-editor of Zero City, with JJ Webb, in the '90s.
McNeilley wrote most
of these poems in an old house in
Olympia, WA, with a large cherrytree stump
in the backyard where the spirit
of his dead brother sits on clear nights, the ghost of a baby possum
on
his shoulder, and paints moonlight on clouds high across the Sound.
