Betwixt and In Between (Free verse) by dougsoderstrom

There was a time in my life, When I was betwixt and in between, So............ confused as I was, I decided to do nothing, And that has made all the difference. Doug Soderstrom, Ph. D. December 27, 2004

You are the most wrong person I've ever encountered. Questions:

1) Where did you get your doctorate? I looked online for a while, then I just decided to ask you.

1a) Was it one of "those" colleges?

1b) Did you just decide to call yourself "Doug Soderstrom, Ph.D."?

2) On what existing philosophical or religious tradition do you base your beliefs in both telepathy (http://tinyurl.com/3m62x) AND the phenomenon (note correct spelling) of "whemying" (http://tinyurl.com/55duc)?

3) How can a professed DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY not be cripplingly ashamed of posting something so megabuncombe as this so-called poem?

4) And anyway, "that has made all the difference" from what? How did you know?

4a) Do you think "betwixt" and "in between" have distinct meanings? What are they?

5) Did your grad school not check spelling or punctuation?

6) Can I see your dissertation?

7) Are you not colossally gay and a little inflated by your ubiquitous bumblings on cheap Episcopal websites and online op-ed pages, both of which being the kind that advertise the South Beach Diet when you open them?

7a) Did you know what "ubiquitous" meant before just now?

8) Do you think that's what real Ph.D.s do?

8a) Or websites, for that matter?

9) If I were you, I'd blender my own arm. I know this isn't a question.

10) How do you explain other poemranker users to yourself, especially that they trump your poems every time you come back despite not having Ph.D.s like you do?

10) And incidentally, how would a Ph.D. instructor in Psychology at a respectable learning institution with real classes describe the condition of coming back to poemranker after your last trumping? Make sure to use the terms "colossally gay" and "just plain sad" in your answer.
