Now is the time, this is the place. Welcome.

Only one? I hope there are many more to come.

Yes, we will. But hell, I like games of chance.

One thing -- there is no need for punctuating the end of every line.

I want to like it. I really do. But there's something about it I can't put my finger on that leaves it just short of what it could be. P.S.: CymbAl. Please.

Can I be on your cabinet? I haven't tried politics yet.

A tombstone inscription you've prepared in advance? Like WB Yeats, “Cast a cold eye / On life / On death / Horseman, pass by!” The “horseman” probably refers to the aristocracy of his time.

A good thought in need of control. Get a grip on that yarn, tighten it up.

Quite nice. I'd leave out "heavenly" on line 3, and "lost" in line 5. Line 6: "As the breeze stirs . . . Omit "The totality of" A beautiful scene.

Calm down please. Let's pour some wine.

Very amusing.

some nice comparisons

molest?

VIOLETSUEDE ALERT. VIOLETSUEDE ALERT. VIOLET SUEDE ALERT.

And where would we be without them? A poignant reminder.

good use of words, however, i respect soldiers more than you give them credit for no vote

This is quite possibly the saddest, and most precise poem I've ever read. I am so sorry.

Hi silver this poem shows just a little part of your heart and i love it. Thank you for your comments on my work and living in Australia is great!! People are pretty laid back down under but you get your share of assholes as you would in any other country or planet Id expect. Its great to talk to someone who loves at least 2 of the same things I do and It would be wonderful 2 keep in touch because I reckon we could learn alot from each other being where we are and all blah blah. So what do you reckon MATE? What's it like in Colorado. Ive only ever been to Singapore when I was young so don't have much 1st hand info on the world around me apart from whats on the box. Anyway this comment has turned into a conversation (one way) so il go but as i said would like to stay in touch. Cool Bananas Leah xx

You fucking retard. I've never read anything this stupid, seriously. Oh, and by the way, your use of ellipses is soooooo cool AND literate! Maybe you do it to seem like a "normal", "chatty", and "generally well-liked guy" instead of "one of the educated elite". Or maybe it's just because you're the dimmest guy ever! Enjoy your life! P.S.-If I were at all inclined to make a conversation out of this, I'd say the primary "forces" "molding" "man's character" are his tendencies to blunder around into things alot and not learn very much from what he's blundered into. This probably leads him to do as many "good" or "selfless" things as "evil" or "selfish" things, since neither is necessarily harder or more distasteful than the other, and since both of those categories are the dampest of turds anyway. So it's not like you're going to get with a lot of nice, non-desperate chicks talking about them! Maybe you should stop! Affectionately, zodiac
