I am logged in! It is a miracle.
I like this idea of impromptu typewritten poems. I have been recently inspired by my first cousin, once removed, as I discussed on Strikethru.
Might try one myself… and on a Hermes Rocket (I have two!) Where is the complete Olivander list of typewriters? With pictures??

I used to do one of these improv poems as the first thing run through each new typewriter. Haven’t done it in a while.
My typewriter pages, with a (mostly) complete inventory and photos is here. You can also get to it through the Machines of Loving Grace link off to the right.

Loggin in to this joint is amazing. I feel like I’ve just been given National Security Clearance.
Maybe that’s exactly what you want me to think.
This poem is delicious. I slam out poetry on my various typewriters every day, but they are all slanty-girly cursive. That pica just kind of thumps the reader in the chest.
More of this!
