I am a human being that writes to express what I see. I try to make it beautiful and I try to make it real but sometimes it’s not because words are not as beautiful as reality. My words are better heard then read…. but whatever!
I am a human being that writes to express what I see. I try to make it beautiful and I try to make it real but sometimes it’s not because words are not as beautiful as reality. My words are better heard then read…. but whatever!
but words are so often more beautiful than the perceived reality which isn’t reality at al but an insane melodrama ….words are so much more beautiful than that…so that they can draw the ordinary into the extraordinary and make us gasp for more
I will not argue.. however, I would much rather feel the ocean on my toes then read about it
yes well that IS a beautiful selection of the drama….toes like that
so true..
sometimes, reading words can make you feel things you couldn’t if the feelings weren’t so eloquently put together as are yours.
Thank you for visiting my site and leaving a footprint.
Nice explanation about who you are, without giving anything away;) Just like poetry, showing pieces off your heart, without really showing it.
Just want to say I love your writing and thanks for checking out mine.
thank you….. and you’re welcome.
thanks for the visit mr jones
You are a poet who writes truth as you see it.
Thanks for visiting my site and the ‘likes’. I don’t know where half the stuff that I write comes from and I’m always happy when someone else enjoys it.
Half the stuff comes from you. The other half comes from you, too.
Thanks for ‘liking’ Regressive Tax. I don’t consider myself a poet per se — my feet aren’t long enough! This 30 day challenge for National Poetry Month is the incentive — and I’m trying to prove to myself that I can see it through, however painful! ‘Druther write a short story!
Thank you for stopping by and taking the time to delve into my world. Your is interesting 🙂
interesting is a good word for it….
Nice blog, wise words MrJones, and thank you for liking my post! 🙂 You’re on my blogroll!
thank you very much.
Thanks for your recent visits. Enjoying, slowly reading through your site. (From above – eggroll, I know; blogroll, I must learn about.) Still new to blogging….
well thank you for reading .. I hope you enjoy it all
Greetings, thank you for the like. It caused me to come here and read your poetry, which I enjoy very much. If I may ask, what kind of process do you go through when writing? Or do you not have a process at all? I look forward to reading more of your work in future.
uh… yeah. no process. It is a very cathartic experience for me.. If I don’t write I turn into a gremlin… sorry… well I suppose I may explode it on to paper then edit it a year later when I find the napkin again… 🙂
Hey Mr. Jones:
Do appreciate the visit – thanks for the thumbs up!
As far as process – I consider it an “unburdening”. If I don’t get it out, it just weighs me down.
I used to adhere to Kerouac’s belief that the first words are the holiest of words. Now I save and revisit – sometimes it changes, sometimes it doesn’t. Quite a revelation when it does…
Keep on putting the words down!
– Jeff
The beauty of well-written work is that, over time, the voice becomes ‘hearable’–the cadences and tones and rhythms become familiar enough that it’s a little like we can see and hear you in person just by reading you!
so, can you hear me?
Going through your words, you write beautifully.
thank you
I live for words. I want to write better all the time, but I often realize that people too much see what they want to see, even in the words they read. Still, I will try. You do well; thanks for the visit to my blog.
Scott
I love to write. I try to write better each time I touch the computer or pick up a pen. But, I have learned that, too often, people see what they want to see, even in the words they read. Still, I will keep trying; you write well; thanks for the visit to my blog.
Namaste,
Scott
I like your site! Thanks for the feedback; I’ll re-visit and read more.
please do
very beautiful intro.
Mr. Jones just to be sure that you’e not my Dad, where in the world are you?
Tucson, Az……lol please tell me your dad is not here too
lol, nope you’re safe lol. it’s just i know it’s ridiculous to think we might be related on the count of billions of people share Jones as a name sooo… i just wanted to be sure.
oh… well Jones is not my name at all… it is just a random name I chose
really? well then see that how you get into troule. Have you ever seen the movie Date night?
yes…lol … it was just a joke that started on facebook and now it has become my blog name… lol. Oh well, I could go for a little adventure
lol, well just be careful, remember, don’t take candy from strangers, even cyber candy….and don’t eat the yellow snow..it’s not lemon flavoured
what exactly is cyber candy?
lol, no suggestive connotations i promise, really i meant it to be just like real candy, you know sweets and gumballs, that kinda stuff…
Hi Mr Jones, glad you liked my latest post. cheers
Poetry is such an intense writing experience, reading it as well as writing it. Vivid imagery and strong emotional impact. So few words do so much. I’m not brave enough to write it. Glad you are.
THANKS for visiting my “pun-ny” photoblog and leaving a “like.” I just had to leave a like on your “About” page because the one paragraph about you merited it, AND because I couldn’t believe that only one of the other 42 responders left a “like.”

Hi!
Thanks for stopping by. Just managed to browse through a few of your latest works which made for enchanting reads. It appears I have some catching up to do so read on I shall.
I’ll read you outloud then.
it’s so much better when I do it… I know all the sweet spots
Yes, I would not trust the sweet spots to anyone.
Thank You, Mr. Jones, for being the first to like my newly-created little blog. Your prompt interest warmed the cockles of my heart, and the fact that you are a poet cheered up my arteries. I’ve started reading your blog as well, best regards!
Thanks for the likes, Mr. Jones. We appreciate them!
Thank you for stopping by our blog and liking a post. You write and express really well. Will look around 🙂
Thanks for the like on one of my posts. Will check your blog out.
You’re poems are intense and personal but still accessible to many. It’s a difficult balance, well done.
This is long overdue, but I appreciate your visiting my blog. I look forward to coming back to yours often.

Thank you for visiting my blog I really appreciate it.
Pleasure to read you mr jones!
pleasure to be read…
Your insights are interesting and unique. I always admire people who think outside of the box. I look forward to reading more. I, also, wanted to thank you for liking my “Highland Christmas”.
Thanks for visiting my blog. Stop by again anytime. Love to hear what you think as well if you have time to comment. I love your “about” page. It is true I would rather have a face to face conversation then type an email, text or even snail mail to someone. Thanks for the reminder.
thanks for stopping by and liking my daughter’s poem when i was 1
i am glad you did… it gave me a chance to find and read your blog 🙂
Glad you liked my post on “Randa Lane…” We are currently running a series on haiku and how to write them. Would be thrilled if you drop in. Will be exploring your poetry more in the days to come. Thanks again for the “like.”
Thank you for liking my poem! I like yours too. Your writing talks to me!
Hope it continues to
I think you are an incredible poet … I found this site in the most random way … keep writing!!!! flapjack
I would like to hear about how you found it. And thank you for the compliment
I’m the world’s worst blogger since I am failing immediacy … but to answer your question, I found your blog while browsing for the meaning of the word “ineffable” … I love your poetry so much and am so grateful I found it …
please write more mr jones
Thanks for visiting my blog. Love your words. Reminded me of something I read once: ‘You write so beautifully. The inside of your mind must be a terrible place.”
Thank you for the like over at my place, I look forward to a long visit here.
Thanks for liking my post 🙂 and its good to see a human being around 🙂
Take care
Thanks for visiting my blog and liking a post. I’ve read a few of your pieces and liked them – especially No Pretense. I thought it was very evocative. I’m looking forward to what you write in 2014.
Someone else has probably already said this, but words help us to see things we mightn’t have otherwise because everyone experiences the world through a different lens.
Some peotry is better heard than read. I have discovered the spoken word poetry somewhat recently.
I tried out doing a couple on sound cloud. They are somewhere in my archives, in Annie’poetry. I might have reblogged them on gentlekindness gentle mental annie.
The two I did that way were Thief and Noisy clock.
Have you done any spoken word using SoundCloud. It is a good way to do it, if you are not in the mood to put your face on video for YouTube.
I might try to do video for YouTube of a couple of mine as spoken word.
Your poetry is definitely condusive to spoken word. I love your free formats. You are a heartfelt, truthful poet. I am still enjoying reading through them .
Annie
I’ve considered it… I have attended a few poetry readings and I feel a little odd there. My pieces don’t have the same cadence that most spoken word does…I feel like the odd man out per usual
Thanks for your “like.”
Thanks for visiting my blog!
