I was born yesterday.
I blinked,
I took a drink,
And now it’s over.
There must have been
A moment or two
I should remember,
But the cancer
Is all that is left.
Where did I go?
Not even the mirror
Convinces me
I exist any more.
My name is Michael McMonigle, the main author of this site.
I am also Morrison Rouse, your editor and host for this language party.
This website houses many of my poems, critiques, criticisms, observations, and other short pieces. My hope for Rantings, Ravings, and Writings is that you find something (a idea, a passion, a word, a memory) that stirs you.
I am interested in all comments, thoughts, and suggestions. I hope you enjoy!

Gone.
