Then you are a believer. I knew it all along.

I believe in telling. I think it's better than showing in many cases. But since you have expressed a like for this in general, my usual hard heart is softened, and I'll take a close look to see if maybe in this case showing might be better. If Dark Angel were to treast me with this kind of considedration, I'd let him tell me things instead of always having to destroy his ego and make him look like an ass.

To what silly things do you refer? Surely not that you have such a study with which to soil youself.

Did I not say that men ane women are unequal and different? If you want to argue, please do not go wandering off into some spatial unawareness of what the subject is. Many men are good at matching a dress to earrings. Many women can beat a man to death with his own shoes. If there were an internet simili, I'd be tempted right now.

wilco- A phenomenal band. I've now completely eliminated all traces of the O.G. S.o.S. due to my own distaste for it. It was about despair,obvious, maybe, but I'm in some straits right now. I feel bound to this dilemma, but crippled, without any options except blind denial. This vent tent revision is a return to a sort of stream of thought structure, which is very loose and sometimes confusing, but not contrived. I find this process can help me create something temporary but stable(like a tent),and it's rather therapeutic. I'm not seeking kudos here, or trying to contend with the prophets, but life's frustrations need an apparatus. I'm drawing with words. I'm a visual artist by blood, and a non practicing catholic in recovery, as well as an admirer of poets. You write with an honest tone in your comment, thats so rare, Thankyou. Mark

Don't make deals. it's your poem. I don't know about that one part. I'll think on it. I'm just not a big fan of rhyme in free verse.

Better how? Ideas, ideas. The fruit/potatoes stays but I'm going to move it to the beginning of the poem. Deal?

What could make you think "there are no differences in their ability to reason and to think through a given situation"? For example: Most men are unable to clearly think through the situation, "Buying a dress that goes with my new earrings." Similarly, most women are unable to clearly think through the situation, "Beating a man to death with his own shoes." This "we're the same in all the areas that count" foofananny is the number one cause of women's hysteria in England today.

It is precisely because women are less spatially aware that they come to think such silly things.

Haven't seen it. Sorry. If I watch it will you vot on the poem though? '0)

Surely you were not up in the stands, were you? Crakyamuni wants me to think he was, but with such a lame description of how I looked, he only wishes he was.

It did. I'm sorry for the limp lashing I did this a.m. I doubt it phased you, and yet it was unbecoming. I've got things. Not your problem though. I enjoy your work, and I guess thats why it was petty to be as insulting as I was. I got defensive. Apologies.
