Just wanted you all to know that “Dark Matter” just crossed the 150,000 lifetime hits mark. As the Web goes, that’s not a huge number; it’s gratifying to me, though, thinking of 150,000 views of these poems…All a poet wants, I think, deep down, is to be heard and read.
Thank you all very much.

Congratulations, Tony!
I passed my 60,000 mark a little while ago, so I know the thrill of the big round numbers. Though not quite as big and round as you. I also just added some apparatus to my WordPress site to make it easier to find various pieces of poetry of mine, which maybe will raise my noticability. Writing more would help, too. 🙂
In any case, congratulations. I think you need a new goal, as do I. You should try for, say 75,000 readers in a single year, and I should try to reach 40,000 readers in 2013. I sense a lot of poetry coming on.

Thank you so much, Andrew. I will think of one — and congratulations!
