 Vindicating the Kaiser Sonny said that old man Kaiser was so mean that they run him off from the bowling alley for bowling overhand. Not only that, but he ambushed dirt daubers with a 12-guage shotgun because they "carried off his soil."

On the Wings of Tomorrow 2002 was a busy year for Lou Harper, entering (and winning) poetry contests, working with the Southern Oklahoma Writer's Guild as their president, and toiling, toiling as our poetry editor. She's penned several new poems, and we asked for a sampling. Welcome to 2003's first Kudzu Monthly Poetry Feature. Enjoy. You're in good hands. About the Cover Artist Cover art for this issue was provided by Bonnie Everett-Hawkes. Please see her feature article, The Life Art of Bonnie Everett-Hawkes in the September, 2002, Kudzu Monthly.

 Living with Dying In this first issue of the new year, we'd like to note that fiction/health editor Lisa Binkley has been aboard since issue no. 3 and has faithfully provided us with interesting, timely health articles for this column - the only feature that has been a constant here. This month's article is no exception. If you've wondered if you should have a living will, designate a power of attorney, or prepare an advance directive, Lisa has the answers you need. Be informed.
