my favorite lingerie
let me undress your inhibitions
laugh lines
mean you have lived and loved
forget your insecurities
I wouldn’t have you
any other way
I love you the way you are
your smile has always been
my favorite lingerie
where i revolve
like the moon and galaxy
who quietly anticipate the night
I patiently await the moment
that our hearts finally align
to explore the universe of your hair
to see my future in your eyes
as our souls unlock
every mystery unsolved
for I am a lonely satellite
in search of a shining star
and you will always be the light
where I revolve
Regarding the image: Pretty obvious why I selected this one for the poem, but those lips, that painted mouth…… SIGH
This poem debuted a month ago on Youtube.
rain on my windshield
a road slick with memories
billboards pass silently
reminding me of the unspoken words
that have me seeing red
‘til they became traffic signals
in the intersection of a romance
on the corner of what could have been
and what was never meant to be
oh my
insistent wipers keep saying no
as the rain on my windshield
evaporate, like drops of your love
I will always treasure your beautiful support. Thank you.

The Lonely Author: First Guest Poet
Youtube forced me to remove the music I downloaded from a royalty free website.
Thus, The Lonely Author is proud to announce, premiering today his new hit single, (I am certain it will be a hit because once you hear it, you will want to hit me). The Lonely Author Blues, is composed, written by, and performed by Moi.
All music appearing on this video cannot be copied, reproduced, redistributed, or published without direct written permission from The Lonely Author or it will lead to him sticking his tongue out at you.
Special Note: Blame Timothy Price of Off Center & Not Even fame. He suggested I compose and perform my own song.
Another Special Note: I use the term composing lightly, I sound like I was decomposing.

To All My Followers
Friends, it’s not that serious. The reason for this long ass post are the two dozen times I have been asked on different blogs, if Youtube is how I will be blogging. Without offending anyone, I would like to answer everyone once.
This past November, I came to the firm decision to never blog again. I had over 10,000 followers, great times, and basically I had nothing left to accomplish. It no longer stirred my passions.
Friends in New York and the Dominican Republic begged me to continue. Then, my best friend Titi (who tried to create a Lonely Author app) convinced me Youtube was the next step in the Beach Boy’s evolution.
I started playing around with the idea, and so many creative possibilities came to me.
Youtube offers me the opportunity to move beyond this two dimensional world. I can recite poetry that can be truly heard. I can inject humor, my personality, and multiple images in my posts. I can share more of ME (every tragedy and triumphant).
But beyond that; I can post things to do in Orlando, the things beyond the expensive theme parks. I will develop posts on how to successfully move to Florida and why you may want to. I can take you on my vacations. We can explore beaches, I can suggest resorts and hotels. You can live my exploits with me.
Best of all, now, during my lonely hours; I am speaking to you.
More importantly, instead of introducing poets, authors, and bloggers by a reblog, retweet, or mention on my blog, I can truly introduce you to them. Poetry will be recited by two guest poets next week. Get a chance to meet the bloggers you have followed. Hear them recite their poetry or novelists discuss their latest novel.
I have always been happy helping others, now I have the platform to do just that.
Regarding my Youtube channel. You don’t like the platform? I am not asking you to switch to vlogging. Continue doing what MAKES YOU HAPPY.
Want to support the Beach Boy on this new venture?
1- Like my videos on YOUTUBE (or like both blog and Youtube). Click on the video, hit like, and close it and move onto the next blog you are reading. EVERY YOUTUBE like helps my effort. Even if you don’t watch the video. Friends keep saying they are hitting like, but my first video has over 600+ likes on the blog, only 81 on Youtube.
2- THIS IS FOR ALL MY SUPER HERO FRIENDS; Afraid your identity will be revealed if you comment. Long ago, I created The Lonely Author gmail. I opened this blog, my Youtube channel, Twitter, AllMyLinks, and Instagram accounts all with this one email. I actually do much of my business and commenting throughout the internet with this identity. You can create one for your blog with your blog icon. Then, comment away IF YOU LIKE. You will never need to remove your mask or cape.
3- I have friends in the Dominican Republic who don’t understand a word I say in the videos. They hit play, let the video run in its entirety on MUTE, while they cook, tend the laundry, go to the bathroom, bathe their children. They don’t even pay attention. But it helps.
4- Come discuss your book or blog, or recite your poetry. Your photo or identity never needs to be revealed. I was a child actor, managed call centers for prestigious institutions, none of you know my real identity. Come on my show, no one will know yours, not even me.
What I will do to help you follow me? I will recite my poetry in the first minute of my videos. My blog posts will have a timeline, so you know exactly when the part you want to listen to plays. If you have any suggestions please, feel free to make them here on this post.
Everyone has to find their own happiness, I have found mine. Life is too short. Be happy. It’s a choice, not something we have to achieve or work for.
You want to help me or follow me, great.
You don’t want to follow me. That is good, too. I won’t be offended. Before starting this venture, I put on my big boy swimming trunks. I am a born and bred New Yorker, a real nice guy with the THICKEST SKIN.
If this is goodbye, well, Adios. I wish you all the best. I hope your days are full of sunshine and smiles. May life bless you and your loved ones with infinite love, good health, and happiness.
You may be thinking…….The Lonely Author is out of his mind trading in 10,000 followers for 100. Perhaps, but I will take 100 faithful, supportive friends any day.
Friends, I have found my happiness……….be happy for me.
I will leave comments open. Throw your spears and arrows (no stun guns, please). Ladies, you can throw your lips (just a suggestion……….but a very valid suggestion. Think about it).
Have a beautiful weekend. Love to all.
God bless. ❤️

The Lonely Author on Youtube will be a forum for novelists to promote their work. A corner for poets to recite their poetry and describe their poetry books. Hopefully, the channel will become the place for bloggers, poets, and our writing voices to be heard.
Get to know me, as I take you to the beaches of Florida & the Dominican Republic. Let’s chase humpback whales, beautiful sunsets, and exotic women.

I am in the process of completing my first video, but I will leave comments open for a day or two.
getting closer to you
Doing great. Before I get into harcore blogging, Here are other places to find me.
For micro poetry I have just opened an Instagram account. Don’t look at the amount of followers. It is embarrassing. (I truly am a Lonely Author)
Hopefully, I will have your support.
The Lonely Author on Instagram
I have finally returned to Twitter. (Yes, I was living in New York at the time when I opened it). I will be posting micro poetry and photos of my daily life and what’s going on.
On Thursday, I will inform you of my special project. It is time for me to get closer to all of you. Hopefully, you will follow me there……
Infinite gratitude…….
