Dovina on There’s A Voice Deep Inside My Head by celticskatermatt1 11 Nov 2004, 12:19 PM
Little said for so many words.
Dovina on Remembrance by Caducus 11 Nov 2004, 12:08 PM
A fine Veteran's Day sentiment. "Passels" seems unnecessarily erudite. "walls of names which each had a face" -> Walls of names that once were faces.

For general readers, the last paragraph is not needed. The value of this poem is how it relates us to our own similar feelings.

Rather than admitting any possible use for my admittedly far-fetched metaphor, you have chosen to misrepresent it, setting up a substitute straw-man for your arrows. Go ahead, for whatever use that is to you. I fail to see how it is useful to me.

What appears dim to you appears bright to me, and not weak either. The poem reflects a strong feeling I had while walking along a dusty road on a cold winter day. The connection between dark colored objects (pain) and their white coverings of snow was just as strong.

You nerd! QUESTION: What's long and round and got a head on it?

Not good. Very basic and lifeless as a corpse.

Respect for trying.
some deleted user on Remembrance by Caducus 11 Nov 2004, 6:51 AM
Memorable and palpable well done.

Poetically not brilliant but it made me feel for you.

Well done for copyrighting your colossal pile of dross. You may wish to scroll down to the bottom of the page, peer through your preposterous beardage and see that all poems are the © of their respective authors. You're truly a simpering halfwit.

absolutely divine, for every time we remember, they die again. As one who lost his brother in nam, I truly appreciate this...thank you

He reminds me of the way fuzzylogic attempted to be high minded without doing any research into what the site was about before commenting and then handing out guff like it was Christmas. There must be some way of shooing these people along; perhaps a gigantic internet shoo horn?

Bob Shank: http://www.poems-and-quotes.com/author.html?id=51265 Your poemes are an epic tale of failure. Your beard is a sure indicator of your failed street poetry. You hat however is about as beatnik cool as you can get.

LOL.
Stephen Robins replying on An Afternoon Walk by Dovina 11 Nov 2004, 3:37 AM
But according to Choad the connection is so very dim and weak as to be preposterous. Please explain.
