Christ, by the end...? I was still a communist. My suggestion, keep the last stanza and eat the rest.

Two appropriate uses of semicolons. -10- and -10-.
Shuushin on Uncle Sam Is Dead by Lenore 2 Mar 2004, 6:02 PM
Gawd. That's long. I know, you get that alot.
"stepped upon a landmina." - okay, thats brilliant. The rest, gradually less so - but still a -10- if ever I saw one.

Immediately turned off by seein "Purple" and "hazey" together - but I'll keep reading... hmmm. I like the last two lines - but I still don't know what it was about.
Shuushin on Pop the Pill by etherealmaiden 2 Mar 2004, 6:07 PM
Was liking it until "My reality's blurred " then it lost its charm.
zodiac on Pop the Pill by etherealmaiden 2 Mar 2004, 6:15 PM
I don't think you really pop pills. Sorry. Now I'm asking myself, how would a real pill addict write this poem differently? And I'm thinking, probably by not writing at all. Or by not writing a poem about pill-popping. So, there are all sorts of tricky issues you could put in this poem - touching on, among other things, the authenticity of the authorial voice, the general Barthian meta-ness of writing a poem in which the narrator - obviously not a pill-popper - pretends to be one without really expecting to be believed (and is, for that reason, more believable.) That would really be something. Or you could just write about your own life instead.

I like this. Good job.
wilco on Pop the Pill by etherealmaiden 2 Mar 2004, 8:21 PM
I think this is more about a feeling....wanting to take the drugs to kill the pain...not so much in actually doing it. Been there myself...I like it.

This kind of makes me think that Hendrix and Jim Morrison got drunk together...
wilco on Uncle Sam Is Dead by Lenore 2 Mar 2004, 8:26 PM
I like the ideas....but a little militant...

May I say, without any unintentional equivication, that this is the shittest thing you have done. My three year old niece produces more thought provoking stools. Correspondence may not be entered in to, this is just plain shit.
