THIS SITE IS COMMERCIAL FREE

HELP KEEP IT THAT WAY!

Hello! This site does not bombard you with blinking advertisements for the lowest mortgage—or confuse you to click here and there and everywhere so you can trim your thighs, buy this or that with a money-back guarantee.

What do you need all that stuff for anyway?

No, we simply publish your poetry
and offer writers a few links of interest.

When television first came out, advertisers began to discover that the most annoying commercials stuck in the minds of the public much more effectively.

Just your luck!

Fifty years later the same body of communications research (believe me, it is a science), is now being applied to the internet. A new medium that once held the promise of diversity, ease of access and equality of content is now being swallowed up by the same old. What's wrong with that, you ask? Nothing . . . but some places do need to remain commercial free. This is one of them. We feel that minds are a terrible thing to exploit. How about those advertisements embedded in the floor of some supermarkets? Cute aren't they? How easy is it to think clearly when at every turn we are bonbarded with buy this, buy that. Gimme gimme greed greed; let no desire be unturned.

Yeah, stuff is nice . . . , but there should be places where advertisers do not reach—like your underwear. Who knows, maybe you're already wearing some labels and logos. What have we all become?
