About Two Strikes and I'm Out An Introverted Poet's Failed Attempt at Connecting with Both a Talking Fly's Fantasy World and a Writing Machine's Science-Fiction World

Each "pitch" of Two Strikes and I'm Out is a poetic dialog between an introverted poet and something extraordinary (a fly and a writing machine, respectively). The two series of poems explore the poet's introspection on writing and life. Whether you are an introvert, an extrovert or something in between, you'll discover insight from your own inner fly or poetry device. Just remember to refrain from swatting bugs or clicking that glowing off button.
