Chas. E Boles AKA Black Bart
About The New Black Bart Poetry Society
The New Black Bart Poetry Society is not a school of poetry nor does it endorse or espouse a particular philosophy of poetry. The Society will entertain most any presentation on the art of poetry, its past, its present, and its future. Explications, delineations, categorizations, taxonomies, and various sundry groupings of poets and their work are of vital interest to the Society membership. See Conditions of Parole for more information.- Follow The New Black Bart Poetry Society on WordPress.com
