Where do I start
This ongoing story of blinking dark
My two year-old machined crashed in July
I’ve battled and struggled to get by
In and out of black I’ve seen
Infinite variations on my screen
By the hand of brother number two
I’ve finally another computer, almost new
No more sudden or continuous blinking blinking
No more going insane and thinking I’m sinking
For three months, a poet blogging monk
Now I’m back in gear, full of spunk

G'day, and welcome to my blog site. My name is Ivor Steven, I live in Geelong, Australia. I'm an ex-industrial chemist, and a retired plumber, and a former Carer of my wife(Carole), for 30 years, who suffered from severe MS. I Write poetry about those personal thoughts, throughout and beyond my life as a Carer.
I've been blogging for over 2 years, and writing poems for 19 years. Of course a lot of my poems are about my favourite subject Carole, but since I've been blogging my writings have become quite varied, humourous, mystical, observational, and even a few monster/horror poems.
