Something strange has happened to me. As B.B. King sang, "The thrill is gone." I have been a bit taken aback over the last several months as I have discovered that my desire to blog here has waned nearly completely. I may very well post an excited entry in the future, but until then, feel free to take a gander at my poetry blog, Line Upon Line.
