Hi all. This unblog started back when I was living all alone.
It used to be that I was free to choose its style and set its tone.
My goal at first was just to have an outlet for my lonesome thought,
But one with rules to keep me mindful of the discipline I sought.

I thought that I could share with God my thoughts and prayers in writing here,
To document in formal verse what otherwise would disappear.
As such, I planned to only post what I considered free of rant
And somehow worthy of a read, if only for a kooky slant.

This all worked fine until I moved and found myself with little time
And readers I had entertained (or tried at least) with months of rhyme.
I felt an obligation to preserve the unblog's posting pace,
Instead of leaving it to rot (if things can rot in cyperspace).

When Ryan came to town we played some pool and talked about the 'net
And how it's hard to keep in touch and how I hadn't emailed yet.
He said that rhyming worked for him, but I had been so slow to post
That I felt guilty writing something maybe once a week at most.

So enter extra authors, where the goal was now community,
Which never really happened since you all were just as slow as me.
And now I have a 'blog that doesn't have the style or tone I'd choose,
And I have fans from church whose readership I'd truly hate to lose.

So unblog is reverting to the boring thing it used to be,
And future posts (if any come) will all be written just by me.
Expect a dearth of rhyming in the next three months or so at least,
And more if I succumb to complications from a rampant yeast.
