So, I tried to switch to tumblr mainly because it's easier to post there...and quickly learned that I just hate tumblr. It's just kind of lame. I had to install a program to allow comments. Get flippin real.
So, 4thursday will remain my home, but the mindset of the Shy Microphone will remain. I'm still here for y'all, just on a medium that I can actually enjoy.
A few preliminary notes for this not-so-triumphant return. Let me make a few things as clear as possible. If you misconstrue these things, you'll simply be ignored.
- All poetry on this site is the property of Gerald M. Jackson. If it appears anywhere besides on his own personal FB page, it is plagiarism. I out a lot of time and energy into my craft. I take it seriously. Even if the piece comes out like crap, I love it to death. Do NOT try to get away with taking my works for your own glory.
- Opinion posts are just that, opinions.
- Every once-in-awhile, I put a post up that is clearly satirical. This is not a blog like Very Smart Brothas. My satirical posts aren't meant to have some deeper meaning. They're just satire. You won't uncover some deep, mythical secret about the way Gerald operates or thinks or the situations he's entangled in. You will not find the secret to life. It's satire. Do not try to be a psychologist with me, you're probably (are) wrong.
- I love feedback on poetry. Don't be afraid to dish it. Do NOT be all anal about the spelling and grammar here. A lot of this is written on my phone or on a wireless keyboard that has a tendency to skip letters and punctuation. Besides, this is all informal. Let's not be trolls, mkay
- Drama is for twitter. Don't bring that mess here. No name dropping, please.
With that said, it's great to be back!
