POPO2024 Day 3

03

Oh that I had a secretary,
an indexer for my blog.
Tags can only take you so far.
Bad are those 365+ posts
written pre-tagging
of colorings with music;
another 52+ weeks
of movie reviews with
2-5 movies in each.
7+ years of disorder.
Maybe future archivers
will sort it out…

    Those numbers are making my head spin! I like the idea of posting the postcards on your blog. Do you send them out, too?

      Yes, every postcard and poem for POPO is snail-mailed to a person on my list. I scan the images before sending.

        I wouldn’t mind POPO if I didn’t have to snail mail and I could just post them.

          The experience of walking out to your mailbox and finding artwork and “real” soul poems is a joy. You have a year to think about it ;)

    you’re it

    the one responsible for

    future generations

    their desire to know

    the smallest detail

    the intricacies of

    your verses

    when all you want

    is to know is if

    you’ve ever reviewed

      I know I read somewhere that once a poem is released into the wild it’s on its own. This poem is more a lazy morning meander, like many/most of these POPO poems will be. I love that song. There’s a Dave Matthews Band song, “Dancing Nancies” that has cool lyrics like that. Thanks for reading and your comment, Ken.

      Randy, this might be the ONE thing AI might help bloggers with, but who knows!

    Organizing the blog is a huge task.

      It really is, and it’s something I should have done from the start, but at that point had no idea it needed to be done.

        Same with me. I don’t want to go drastic and delete a lot of stuff but organizing the tags etc is a daunting task

    Ah, the perennial problem… and once one finds something that works, it sows doubt about other parts of one’s organizing…

  5. That would drive me nuts. I would go through and organize it all. But I am obsessive-compulsive about my blog.

      The colorings ones bug me the most because every day has a song, and even though I tagged the artist I didn’t put them in the title.

    I had to laugh. I don’t even think I could organize what I had if I had started at the beginning. I’m just chaotic. But it is annoying that I have things in folders that have a different name from the blog post. It’s not just the blog, it’s everything about my life. I only locate things by accident. (K)

      It feels like that here also. In my computer files and in the house.

    My mess won’t be sorted out…they will give up on mine. It’s so hard to get everything straight.

        You have never seen the inside of my car lol. It’s hard cataloging somethings and I have some things duplicated.

      I always think about hiring a college student, giving them access to the blog, and let them sort it out.

      1. I’m not sure this up and coming generation would be up to the challenge…. they just look at people over 50 and roll their eyes. :-D
