When The Mill Shut Down

When the mill shut down
we hit the pavement with a thud
then we all got up and kept walking.

Some to the work house
some to the poor house
some to the whorehouse
and the grave.

The End
No, there's a few more chapters left, such as...

She Sleeps Tight

Sleeps so tight
she has a marksman's eye.
Maker's mark
tattoo firewater spine.
Leather shoes
but nowhere to go.

Dice and coins
scattered in the snow.
Dice and coins
scattered in the snow.

Won't be long,
until I see her face.
She's waiting
in an undisclosed place.
I've been conspired
banned from my muse.

This won't stick
poor boy's all confused.
This won't stick
poor boy's all confused.

In Salem town
she keeps her chin so high.
Darkened breeze
she smiles as I roll by.
Step inside
she looks for tables left.

Wink at time
nothing lasts except yourself.
Wink at time
nothing lasts except yourself.

Like a Steamboat
she plans to roll on down.
To the Gulf
out of this dirty town.
Copper mesh
kept stuffed in a jar.

Sharp cold hit
turning wine to water.
Sharp cold hit
turning wine to water.

We know him
eye deed by his ship.
In a trap
a kind of goose chase trip.
Whiskey fumes
and stale gun smoke.

Sunk and drowned
with all her knives and jokes.
Sunk and drowned
with all her knives and jokes.

Sleeps so tight
she has a marksman's eye.
Maker's mark
tattoo firewater spine.
Leather shoes
but nowhere to go.

-Will Dockery

And so it goes...

Then go look for your argument
elsewhere. You know you want to.
This reads more like the first sentence
of a Will Dockery autobiography than
a poem. Don't stop there. Continue
the progression. Keep up the good
work! I'll be away most of the day,
but look forward to discussing this
later when we both have more time.
If time permits.

Has there ever been anybody so easy to troll as little willie

I remember the paper mill

i don't know why
but something with the way

looked like he didn't really have to
finish
the fifth grade to do what he was doing
ah but those who are like children

will we work at the paper mill, in Oregon,
Will?
or will we all write poems like yours
someday

I wonder what's there down Halsey
in Portland,
who is there
as the water from the Columbia rushes
into the plant
and pulp comes out and something with exponential
force changes this to actual paper

When the mill shut down

Some to the work house
some to the poor house
some to the whorehouse
and the grave.
A lightweight poem about a heavy subject, but brevity can
pack a punch, as it does here.
I know that artistically speaking our culture favors threes
instead of fours, but would it be worthwhile to give a nod
to alcoholism here?
Some to the work house
some to the poor house
some to the ale house
some to the whorehouse
and the grave.
Looking at this, Bill, while the image and sentiment of
adding "ale house" isn't out of place, rhythmically it
throws the piece off for me. As it is, it goes
badda-bip, badda-bip, badda-bip... badda-BOOM with
"grave".
Agreed. There's a nursery rhyme quality to the original
that strengthens the impact of the lines: lending them a
cyclical pattern that's been repeated through several
generations. The addition of the "ale house" line breaks
the nursery rhyme feel, thus robbing the stanza of much of
its power.

That's the Corey touch, earthy and graphic. I like it.

I just caught this message... while it may work for a poem by someone else,
it tampers with my meaning, my poem's meaning, which I really feel is
exactly how I need the poem to be, as is.

Thanks for the feedback, my erstwhile friends.

Tommy passed last week. Gunny is still
hanging in there, but he'll go soon too.
Bill is as ornery as ever, and still calls
Angel Crystal. Leo and Geno are both
looking good, and seem to be doing well.
There are a few new faces around the
Ward, both patients and staff. Otherwise,
it's pretty much the same old same old.
That's about all the news I have today.
Let's hope Gunny doesn't follow you online.

Really? Does KILL file sound violent to you too?
Isn't that virtually killing someone? If I didn't want
to have this exchange with you, I wouldn't be here.
If I wanted you dead, you'd be dead to me.
And I still feel that we had a good weekend that time you showed up at
Doo-Nanny. Here's a photo Patricia just gave me of her and several others
you met while you were down here in Dixie - Kip, Doris and Gary (may he rest
in peace).

You can do that even when he's not pretending to ignore you, but I
take your point. When he's pretending to ignore us, we could even tell
lies about him, but neither of us would ever do so. The fact that he's
a talentless, thieving, moronic, plagiarising, tone-deaf, drug-addled,
unemployable beggar can be backed up with vast amounts of proof.

How's that "not replying to the 'trolls'" schtick working out for
you, Dreckster?
It's working really well from my point of view. I can laugh at little
willie douchebag all I want.
You can do that even when he's not pretending to ignore you, but I
take your point. When he's pretending to ignore us, we could even tell
lies about him, but neither of us would ever do so. The fact that he's
a talentless, thieving, moronic, plagiarising, tone-deaf, drug-addled,
unemployable beggar can be backed up with vast amounts of proof.
It'd be hard to make up a lie about a soap dodging pissbum who ducks
questions and child support and parades corpses around Usenet for
sympathy. I mean it might well be a lie to call Dreckery a pedophile but
it's certainly been proven he's enabled at least one pedophile[1].

[1] Perhaps Drecknozzle could take after his example and feed worms.

As you know, I've never called Dreckery a paedophile, even though he's
stated repeatedly that pornographic pictures of children are "poems".

I haven't even called Dunce a paedophile, even though he's stated
repeatedly that the victims of paedophile photographers are "models",
and described the little girls about whom paedophiles fantasise as
"women".

(The words in quotation marks are the precise words the kooks used
when defending chuckles lysaght's posting of child pornography in
AAPC. I provided Message-IDs only a few weeks ago, but can provide
them again if any honest enquirer asks.)

Perhaps I'm too scrupulous? But I'm proud of the fact that it's
obvious even to stupid people that I've never told a lie about either
of the plagiarising, paedophile-loving, spamming, whining, lying,
unemployable, sociopathic, racist, misogynist, whining scum. To
describe them as paedophiles would require the kind of logical leap
that stupid people would be unable to understand.

Besides, it's a principle of our excellent legal system that the
burden of proof lies upon the prosecutor, and I'm not sure beyond
reasonable doubt that Dreckery's and Dunce's hard drives are stuffed
full with kiddy pr0n. It's possible that they're not.

You left out narcissistic deadbeat in Dreckster's case but I get your

soap dodger any longer.

It's entirely possible that Dreckster showed something illegal and
disgusting to his former bandmates and with the last remaining sparks of
decency shipoped the pissbum off to Coventry.

It's always possible that being seen in public with Dreckster may have
permanently harmed them economically and socially. I know it's a reach
given their lack of taste and discernment after all this time but one of
them may have had a moment of clarity[1].

Then again, having little willie douchebag around is a cockblock of the
first order. Perhaps one of them discovered they had nads and decided to
try to do something about it with a member of the opposite sex.

It's a pity that Dennis Hammes is dead. If he were alive, he could
have added to the thousands of posts in which he expressed his
contempt for Dreckery. He might also have mentioned that "Consider the

Looking at this, Bill, while the image and sentiment of adding "ale house" isn't out of place, rhythmically it throws the piece off for me. As it is, it goes badda-bip, badda-bip, badda-bip... badda-BOOM with "grave".

Probably I'm too set on how the delivery /punches/ as it is, but I might try it with the "ale house" line tonight at the poetry reading I'm planning on tonight at the coffee shop open mic... and see what reactions it gets from the crowd.

And, thanks again for reading and commenting, Bill.

All to the grave is the last line.
The story doesn't continue
beyond the last line of the story,
so All to the grave can't be seen
or heard as rushing the story ahead.
All to the grave ends the story,
followed by a big Gomer wave,
like you're gesturing to all those
referenced in the story.
That's okay if the writer wanted to "end" the story there, which I wasn't doing.

I am mostly the same way, but I usually make exceptions for the regulars here, who often respond in kind.

If you DO get the time, though, here's one I think you might like, which contains one of my (meaning one of my lines) favorite lines of poetry:

"When cheating is for losers and playing straight is for fools, you never know which way to go."

Lol. You remember reading something you never read,
won't admit you never read it, but somehow I'm wrong.
It is what it is, still.

Will Dockery FAQ
<snipped for focus>
More like snipped to avoid reality.
The confusion of fantasy with reality is known as being delusional.
etc. Dockery is an employee of a pizza establishment known as Pizza Roma
in
Columbus, Georgia in a small section of town called "Shadowville."
Will's
behavior proves him to be anything but the typical employee of a pizza
parlor, however. He enjoys writing poetry while both on and off the job,
reading it in front of audiences in downtown coffee shops or local bars,
and
then basking in the audience's reaction, regardless of how positive or
negative it may be. However, most of Will's writings have been known to
be
rather poor or uncomprehensible in quality and, as a result, when he
posts
his writings to Usenet the reaction is almost always in a negative
manner.
Will is also an admitted drug and alcohol abuser, so it can be assumed
that
most of his writings originate while under the influence of one or both.
So
far Will has admitted to abusing marijuana and alcohol but remains
rather
quiet on any stronger drugs that he may or may not have ingested. When
confronted with the fact that he is a possible alcoholic and drug
abuser,
Will scoffed at the fact and stated that police officers frequently use
more
marijuana than ordinary citizens such as himself. These and other
idiotic
statements, along with his behavior on and offline, have branded Will as
a
"pizza boy," and it doesn't look like things are going to change anytime
soon. Later, it was agreed upon that since Will's moronic postings,
stubborn
behavior, and overall insane actions proved him to be an idiot, that
alt.idiot.will-dockery needed to be created.
It should also be noted that the aforementioned drug and alcohol abuse
have
reduced Will's reading comprehension skills down to the level of what we
can
estimate to be between that of a four-year old and eight-year old level,
averaging somewhere around the six-year-old level. If Will is an example
of
anything else, it's that abusing drugs and alcohol is never a good thing
and
that a person can never start sobering up too soon.
2a. What is a "pizza boy?"
A: A "pizza boy," or "pizza boy," or "pizzaboi," as it is sometimes
spelled,
is much different than a pizza delivery driver. A pizza delivery person
works a job delivering pizzas. These are hard-working, respectful
individuals who are in college or just trying to eek out a living as
much as
they can. They are people who have lost their jobs suddenly, or people
who
need income to help feed their children and family of five, or just
everyday
people looking for something different. Many of them are retirees
working a
job for supplemental pay in between social security checks. Others are
in it
for the love of the job, though they are few and far between.
A pizzaboy wants this as their only job until retirement and could care
less
about what the customer receives, so long as he or she receives a tip
upon
delivery, regardless of how they act on your doorstep. Because of their
antisocial nature, some have been known to place bodily secretions onto
the
pizzas of customers they do not like, claim minorities are cheap,
homosexuals are evil (and call their enemies "fags" or "gay", thinking
it to
be a great flame), and are probably are misoginst as well. A pizzaboy is
usually stereotyped by the mainstream media and general as lazy,
unshaven,
unbathed, hairy, rude, greedy, stupid, ignorant, antisocial, and
occassionally bigoted or sociopathic. A good example of a stereotype
used in
the media of a "pizzaboy" can be seen in the movie "Home Alone," where
the
pizzaboy drives onto the lawn, knocks over and destroys a statue, walks
up
to the door, bangs on it callously, then when he receives a low amount
for a
tip smirks and gets the door slammed in his face. Many pizza boys
consider
people who do not tip "stiffers" and a few of the more antisocial and
stupider ones plot "revenge" or attempt to send a "message" to such
customers by delivering the pizza late or in poor condition. Should you
ever
receive a pizza not in the condition you desired or it arrives late, it
may
be a good idea to contact the establishment from which you ordered. A
sad
fact of life is that there are "pizza boys" in every establishment ever
created.
Will Dockery is classified as a "pizza boy" because of his antisocial
(and
slightly bigoted) attitude, his attitude towards customers, his
misoginistic
behavior towards women, his delusional and egotistical nature, and for
the
fact that he just sucks. You really have to see him for yourself;
luckily,
anyone who comes across Will on Usenet doesn't take to long to realize
just
how close he comes to the common stereotype of a pizza boy.
3. Ackronyms
Sometimes you may come across a post in alt.idiot.will-dockery that has
ackronyms in it. Here is a brief list of those which have graced the
APDD. This stands for alt.pizza.delivery.drivers, a newsgroup that Will
hangs around in and is generally mocked and despised in for his behavior
and
moronic postings. APDD used to be a newsgroup full of people just like
Will
several years ago; however, after a brief engagement by outside parties
into
the newsgroup questioning the behavior of those posters, many of them,
if
not all of them, made a mass exodus of the newsgroup. Some of them later
became members of an e-mail list that did essentially the same thing as
APDD
except of course in e-mail.
AIWD. Stands for alt.idiot.will-dockery, the title of this newsgroup.
PR. This stands for "Pizza Roma," the pizza delivery store where Will
currently works.
AUK. alt.usenet.kooks, another newsgroup on Usenet and one where Will's
posts frequently end up being posted to due to the fact that their
content
warrants them being both on-topic in the group and an amusement for all
who
read and lurk there.
PJR. Peter J. Ross, the guy who sent the control message for
alt.idiot.will-dockery to be created.
RAP. rec.arts.poems, a newsgroup of, well, poems -- at least it used to
be,
until the shit hit the fan and splattered into layers too thick to be
removed using general household cleaners. Will enjoys posting to RAP
because
he considers himself a poet and an artist of the poetry circuit. Most
people
disagree with him on that fact.
AAPC. alt.arts.poetry.comments, another poetry newsgroup where Will
hangs
out to play. Frequently there are crossposts between
alt.arts.poetry.comments and rec.arts.poems as both newsgroups have
similar
purposes and content.
FOAD. Fuck off and die. Usually written at the end of a post, but
occassionally somewhere in the body, its meaning is obvious.
WTF? What the fuck? This question is usually asked in response to Will's
postings, as due to his excessive drug and alcohol abuse it can be
difficult
to determine what, if anything, he meant in the post in question. His
poor
reading comprehension also causes this ackronym to be used every so
often
when someone can't figure out how he could come to such a mind-boggling,
head-numbing conclusion.
WTH? Same as what the fuck, only with Hell/Heck instead of Fuck.
AHM. alt.hackers.malicious. A newsgroup of dubious quality, Will's
postings
occasionally end up crossposted to here to give the regulars a good
laugh. A
really good laugh.
WD. "Will Dockery." Used when the poster doesn't feel like writing out
'Will
Dockery' or believes that those reading the thread have sufficient
enough
knowledge to know who they are talking about.
Other ackronyms will be added as necessary or time allows.
5. Names
Amber. Amber is a former employee of Pizza Roma where Will works. Months
ago, Will's manager found her having sex with a fellow employee in the
back
room and blew a gasket. Will claims that Amber wasn't fired for fucking
in
the back room but was fired for something else. According to Will, Amber
has
either had sex with or plans to have sex with every male employee of
Pizza
Roma from the manager all the way to the owner. She is the truest
example of
a whore you could possibly find in Will's area.
Will Dockery. Self-explanatory. Will works for Pizza Roma and loves to
mystify Usenet with the various tales from the store, some of which
would
cause any self-respecting health inspector to vomit. Will has hounddog
loyalty to his manager Pasko and would do anything to please him -- and
we
do mean anything.
Pasko. Pasko is the retarded criminal who runs Pizza Roma. We say
retarded
because that's about the only way to rationally explain away his poor
decisions and we say criminal because Will has admitted that Pasko is a
criminal. According to Will, Pasko buys bootleg copies of movies off the
street from strangers and has guns in his office that he gives to his
employees to take on runs to "dangerous areas." While both of these are
felonies, Will claims that Pasko is NOT a convicted felon and that the
crime
he was in prison for was only a misdemeanor or something similar. But
don't
prod Will for details or he'll call you a "stalker."
Trey. A fellow employee of Pizza Roma where Will works. Supposedly
threatened suicide in the parking lot with a shotgun he kept in the
trunk of
his car before Will and other employees talked him out of it.
Matt. Another employee of Pizza Roma.
Ben. The owner of Pizza Roma, allegedly clueless to everything going on
inside the store.
Rusty. Russell "Bert" Waters, AKA Russell B. Waters, AKA Rusty, is
another
pizza boy who inhabits rec.arts.poems and alt.pizza.delivery.drivers and
who
is on a slightly lower level than Will when it comes to doing and saying
unbelievable shit that makes you wonder if they aren't some really bad
version of the Matrix. Rusty is an overweight, homosexual, white
supremacist
who lives with his parents and works in a bank. We wish we were making
that
shit up.
Wow... that's quite a collection of personal information...

Obsess/Stalk much?

Well, I hope those friends are staying brave...

Anyone heard from Corey? Nothing here, which is surprising, I don't think
he's stayed away from the newsgroups for so long in the entire two decades
I've known him...

Perhaps he's socked up and parlaying it real well...

Happy Holidays Corey, and the rest of the super brave Connor family, where

The Sniper Wore a Starched Collar

In the beginning, the threat was set

and guided by a star called North er make that South,

the thousand mile journey began;

destination, Doonanny. Target:

Shadowville Will, lead crooner at Hog Bottom,

best BBQ and flies and dust in town.



At mile 707, a voice rang out

as that sniper passed a sign

"Best Finger Picken, Drippin, Likken, BBQ in town"

and that sign became a sign

and the voice said: "Drop your long gun,

pick up instead, a cardboard boxed,

throw away camera, titled Kodak and shoot

your target with shaky hands through lens

rather than scope and you will be greeted

as friend rather than foe, even though Shadowville Will

would have a chill, at first, who's on second?"



And so it was, a video of grainy dust to dust grew

as blood spilled, was forsaken

(except the poor pig, roasting on an open fire)

and the journey home brought smiles

to that sniper with starched collar,

knowing an Angel waited with open arms

and legs, keeping the last supper of mutton so far away

from thought, but caution is sent to all:

beware the sniper with starched collar, as he whispers

vengeance is mine sayeth me...

while taking a pee, poo and wipeth

Praise Jesus (my landscaper) and Happy New Year.

"Deny it all you want to, George, but both Jim and I (and probably others) remember the "Pretty Colors"/LSD post."
Yes, indeed. Dockery wrote of waiting for Katherine to come home from work and dropping acid to see pretty colors.
<quote>
It was 1981 in Atlanta, a Friday night, we had just put in a full week at work, the baby was at a sitter, and we considered ourselves rather "hip".
So in that context, I, and we, saw no problem with taking a doise and watching the pretty colors.
So I take it you're anti drugs, Jim Senetto, and that is fine, but not everyone had as conservative mentality as you apparently do.
So, no apology here either.
😀 </q>
It was a rather lengthy look into the life of Will Dockery.
No, it wasn't. Jim's being honest enough; he was talking about the post as he "remembers" it. But he's not telling the truth about the post Will actually wrote.
'Jim and I both remember Will's saying that he invited Kathy to the lumber yard after work to drop acid and look at the "pretty colors" the night she disappeared. I'm sure that others here remember it as well.'
'Will also wrote that on the night Kathy disappeared, he had invited her to join him in the back room of the lumber yard (where he was squatting at the time) to drop some acid together so that they could enjoy the pretty colors.'
'you had written that you had been living in the back room of the lumber yard at the night of her disappearance and had invited her to drop acid with you after work and look at the "pretty colors."'
Now reread the "pretty colors" post, and notice that it says that Will and Kathy had planned to drop acid that night -- but not at the "lumber yard". There is no fricking mention of any "lumber yard."
The passage you've quoted is not the original post, as Will is *responding* to Jim's questions about the original.
So how did that get into the story? Michael Monkey confused what he read with something that happened to Will at another time, and imagined it into the story. He made it up.
In fact, Will was living with his wife and son, and he'd "invited" Kathy to come home. But both Jim and Michael are convinced that, no, Will was not living with Kathy but all alone in a "lumber yard." Michael is convinced because he imagined it, and Jim is convinced because that's what Michael told him.
Michael Pendragon: "In the wiki bio, it seems like you were only living with T, and went straight from squatting in an apartment with her to squatting at a lumber yard alone..."
Okay, that was off, and I'll need to change/clarify that..
In one of his early drafts, Will had either directly stated, or made it appear as if such were the case, that he'd gone "straight from squatting in an apartment (La Maison) with [Kathy] to squatting at a lumber yard alone."
Based on the "off" information discussed above, the "pretty colors" story (the night of Kathy's disappearance) would have been set in the lumber yard.
From there it became his vow to not write about personal things on family and friends.
But the damage, as they say, had been done.
His first 'off the cuff' post on all things in the Dockery life was almost written
with a certain pride, his belief that Kerouac had it right and as far as he was concerned, he would follow that lead.
The rest is the breakdown of such thoughts.
It makes no difference to me that Mr. Dance thinks he has it right and Michael and I have it wrong.
Probably not. But it does make a difference who is telling the truth. And Jim and Michael have not been telling the truth. Not just about this one post either. They've claimed their major source was Will's "autobiography" on Penny's Poetry Pages -- not the present version, but "earlier versions" which Will is supposed to have rewritten and then deleted (but they claimed to remember). Yet, the earlier versions all still exist, and they don't back any of those claims. Once again, they're honest enough about their memories, but they don't actually remember what their sources said. Michael remembered what he imagined, and Jim remembered what Michael told him.
We can't quote the sources verbatim, if that's what you mean.
However, it is indisputably clear from the current version of "Will Dockery: The Atlanta Years" that he had originally either stated, or unintentionally made it appear as though he had, that he went straight from La Maison to squatting in the back room of the lumber yard which would have then been the setting for the "Pretty Colors" incident on the night of Kathy's disappearance.
No, I wasn't sleeping at the lumber yard at that time.
Any incorrect information Jim or I have posted is *based* upon Will's autobiographies, poetry, and discussion
No, it looks like you either misremember what you read, Pendragon. I wouldn't have posted anything that far from what happened, even in my poetry.
Michael Pendragon: "In the wiki bio, it seems like you were only living with T, and went straight from squatting in an apartment with her to squatting at a lumber yard alone..."
WD: Okay, that was off, and I'll need to change/clarify that... looks like a jump cut that left off the last few weeks at La Maison Apartments in which the relationship with T went downhill... and there are a /lot/ of episodes and ideas for poems just in those few weeks that have not been written about, either in poetry, prose fiction or non-fiction.
As I wrote earlier, you appear to have misunderstood what was written, Pendragon.
Really?
Please explain how "Okay, that was off, and I'll need to change/clarify that..." constitutes a misunderstanding on my part.
What you told him the bio said {"it seems like you were only living with T, and went straight from squatting in an apartment with her to squatting at a lumber yard alone") was "off."

"Deny it all you want to, George, but both Jim and I (and probably others) remember the "Pretty Colors"/LSD post."
Yes, indeed. Dockery wrote of waiting for Katherine to come home from work and dropping acid to see pretty colors.
<quote>
It was 1981 in Atlanta, a Friday night, we had just put in a full week at work, the baby was at a sitter, and we considered ourselves rather "hip".
So in that context, I, and we, saw no problem with taking a doise and watching the pretty colors.
So I take it you're anti drugs, Jim Senetto, and that is fine, but not everyone had as conservative mentality as you apparently do.
So, no apology here either.
😀 </q>
It was a rather lengthy look into the life of Will Dockery.
No, it wasn't. Jim's being honest enough; he was talking about the post as he "remembers" it. But he's not telling the truth about the post Will actually wrote.
'Jim and I both remember Will's saying that he invited Kathy to the lumber yard after work to drop acid and look at the "pretty colors" the night she disappeared. I'm sure that others here remember it as well.'
'Will also wrote that on the night Kathy disappeared, he had invited her to join him in the back room of the lumber yard (where he was squatting at the time) to drop some acid together so that they could enjoy the pretty colors.'
'you had written that you had been living in the back room of the lumber yard at the night of her disappearance and had invited her to drop acid with you after work and look at the "pretty colors."'
Now reread the "pretty colors" post, and notice that it says that Will and Kathy had planned to drop acid that night -- but not at the "lumber yard". There is no fricking mention of any "lumber yard."
The passage you've quoted is not the original post, as Will is *responding* to Jim's questions about the original.
So how did that get into the story? Michael Monkey confused what he read with something that happened to Will at another time, and imagined it into the story. He made it up.
In fact, Will was living with his wife and son, and he'd "invited" Kathy to come home. But both Jim and Michael are convinced that, no, Will was not living with Kathy but all alone in a "lumber yard." Michael is convinced because he imagined it, and Jim is convinced because that's what Michael told him.
Michael Pendragon: "In the wiki bio, it seems like you were only living with T, and went straight from squatting in an apartment with her to squatting at a lumber yard alone..."
Okay, that was off, and I'll need to change/clarify that..
In one of his early drafts, Will had either directly stated, or made it appear as if such were the case, that he'd gone "straight from squatting in an apartment (La Maison) with [Kathy] to squatting at a lumber yard alone."
Based on the "off" information discussed above, the "pretty colors" story (the night of Kathy's disappearance) would have been set in the lumber yard.
From there it became his vow to not write about personal things on family and friends.
But the damage, as they say, had been done.
His first 'off the cuff' post on all things in the Dockery life was almost written
with a certain pride, his belief that Kerouac had it right and as far as he was concerned, he would follow that lead.

Sounds like a gay porn flick.
Like I said way back when, everything seems gay to you, Pendragon... your hidden desires coming to the surface, perhaps?
HTH and HAND.
Pen is strange, perhaps a self-hating gay man, closeted..?

When The Mill Shut Down
When the mill shut down
we hit the pavement with a thud
then we all got up and kept walking.
Some to the work house
some to the poor house
some to the whorehouse
and the grave.
-Will Dockery
