OBAMA AS POET, When President Obama was a 19-year-old student at Occidental College, he published two poems in the spring 1982 issue of Feast,
the school's literary magazine. The first poem, "Pop," appears to
capture a moment between the young Obama and his maternal grandfather, Stanley Dunham. The bond between the two ...is reinforced at the end of the poem by the framing and reflective properties of Pop's glasses. Find poetry by President Obama and other presidents at the link below.Read More

I threw them in the mix when we had poetry switcheroo night. No one could guess who wrote them. "Pop" is by far the better of the two.

I am very much wanting to make an artist's oasis. Or is there one and everyone is hiding it from me? Chadley the state capital sounds bleak which is not what you'd think of Oregon.

People tend to think Portland represents all of Oregon in much the same way they believe that Vegas represents all of Nevada. In fact, both places are awash in red-necked troglodytes, which is why I got to celebrate Obama's election by fending off the attacks of a disgruntled war veteran, rather than macking on some dreadlocked, patchouli dipped Demo hottie..
