i wrote this with my g/f, she wrote the first line, i did the second and so on...
she thinks i f*cked the ending up...
"Stroking his brows of sandy shade,
that earliest smoothness
with mustache and hair graying."
The poem starts here for me.
"A belief, a certainty?"
Everything you are trying to say in the first 2 1/2 lines should be told in this line.
Love the last stanza.
But criticism aside. It's a -10- as is.
Got English?
P.S. The real-life Fraser Allonby got married last weekend. He's now on honeymoon in Sardinia.
I think we are talking at cross purposes. I am using the phrase "it is possible" to mean "it is a possibility as opposed to a certainty". You are using the phrase "it is possible" to mean "it is within the realms of possibility as opposed to the realms of impossibility". Adopting my meaning, I am correct. Adopting your meaning, you are correct. You can't say fairer than that.
Con-grrrrrrr-atttt-yoo-lay-shuns. Do you now intend to sell your time for money? If so, how?
mices is cack. It's on the high street opposite the church thing between Sprint (formerly Harvey's) and The Mitre.
Handed in. Course finishes after my viva.
Did you get rusticated or sent down?
College internet account expired.
Two propositions x any y are equivalent if, and only if, x implies y AND y implies x.
I think it's obvious that B implies A, but not obvious that A implies B. Both hold in my opinion, though I can understand you disagreeing with the latter - since that was your original argument - but to disagree with the former seems a bit odd.
The case of B implies A: If B is true, then B must be possible. So A is true. I don't think there is anything wrong with saying that something which is certain is also possible. Of course it's possible. To say it is possible is a weaker statement than saying it is certain, but it is nonetheless true.
Hee hoo
And besides, what are you doing paying for internet access? For God's sake, man! You're not a tourist, so stop acting like one.
P.S. I've never had the pleasure of visiting "mices walk-in internet shop". What's it like?
I disagree. If B is true, A must be false. If it is a certainty that X is possible (i.e. B), then it is wrong to describe that certainty as a possibility (i.e. A).
the only unsinkable ship is a FRIENDship. HAR HAR.
"When family die its not funny
It makes me feel runny"
Classic. You call for seriousness, and then, on the very next line, say that you "feel runny."
Dynamite parody. 10.
Moist, but dry at the end.
