Re: The man who loved Lennon by Caducus	Dovina 75.82.85.162	16-Jan-07/2:50 PM
The musical undertones work ok, starting with Lennon (presume John Lennon). But for David to express his love with shillings to buy plectrums (very inexpensive) seems weak. Maybe it’s why she walked away. Bringing back the bass voice in her heels is good. Some facts about this I’m not up to speed on.
Re: Pointless by fadedlove	Dovina 75.82.85.162	16-Jan-07/2:39 PM
These personal diatribes seldom work as poems. "Play the red card, walk away" is what we do when no other reason for refusing sex comes immediatly to mind.

Thanks for reading, then voting.

This ain't ego-talk. I was just trying to cover up the fact that I had nothing useful to say :(
Re: a comment on Wreck of the Poor Anchor by Dovina	Dovina 75.82.85.162	16-Jan-07/2:28 PM
You don’t like everything, as you have just said, and said before. And rockmage cannot even find a simple 3 he left in plain sight on one of my poems. So who is it again who has no talent?
Re: a comment on Bitter by Ranger	Ranger 86.131.61.212	16-Jan-07/2:25 PM
'It' being the word or the poem? If you mean the poem, then it's nothing more than it says; the narrator having a really bad day. If it's the word 'degree', I can't remember my precise thinking (at least, not this late and after a long day) but it'll have been along the lines of 'in her own way' or 'in her own manner'. Or something like that. A poetic way of saying 'whatever', really.
Re: Wreck of the Poor Anchor by Dovina	Ranger 86.131.61.212	16-Jan-07/2:17 PM
I quite liked some of it but then as Stephen will tell you, I'm incapable of disliking anything, and as rockmage will tell you I have no talent, so it's a pretty pointless compliment.

I'm back in England until the end of the week (working again over the Christmas break) but I should be in Cardiff in April. Lots of friends to visit as well, so I expect to be much more well-travelled by July. Uni's going really well and I finally have some direction career-wise (hurrah!). It just requires the year to finish as it started and for the teachers' union to not bring about armageddon. Let me know when you're about again, we'll chat then :-)

Hiyas Ranger! How's it going? Still in lovely Wales? I'm going to be there in April (hoping to get some paddling in Pembrokeshire if time allows; crazy water there)--also hoping to talk Z into Eisteddfodd (however the hell it's spelled) later in the year. Who knows--we may have to track you down. ;-D Kayaking's great--love the off-season. Gotta run, but hope you'll stick around a bit--I'm just back myself; we'll see what happens. Hope you're doing well! How's uni?
Re: Bitter by Ranger	Shuushin 63.167.136.250	16-Jan-07/2:03 PM
I was swinging with it right up until the last line, with "degree". Some trouble with that. What does it mean?
Re: a comment on Bitter by Ranger	Ranger 86.131.61.212	16-Jan-07/1:58 PM
Thanks, I think you might be right about s4. I didn't spend very long on it though, and revision efforts have been minimal. A couple of months lurking around on allpoetry has murdered my desire to write... :(
Re: Push, Wipe, Flush by Dr Toilet	some deleted user 80.225.147.196	16-Jan-07/1:55 PM
Well having seen this and your remarks on my poetry i see what a shyte you are. This is garbage crap tedious boring stupid foul nasty unremarkable boring predictable mornic stupid lousy and no imagination at all. Frankly sunshine i would give up and stick to your day job shoveling shyte.
Re: a comment on Bitter by Ranger	Ranger 86.131.61.212	16-Jan-07/1:55 PM
I think so, although sometimes it's not so clear. Haven't bothered with the internet for a while though, been out of communications. I'll give you a shout on your homepage rather than clutter up this nice tidy poetry site.
Re: Same old rancour (a yellow stream of consciousness) by ecargo	Ranger 86.131.61.212	16-Jan-07/1:52 PM
Hey there ecargo, I wasn't going to sign back to poemeranker but I saw you about and thought I'd say the hellos. Long time no speak, how's the kayaking?
Re: Asbestosis by Stephen Robins	some deleted user 80.225.147.196	16-Jan-07/1:49 PM
I see, you have the gall to attack my poetry when you write such drivel as this?.Dear oh dear this has to be worse than your last effort and i wonder how you think you have any talent at all.Even for free verse this has no form at all, the story is rancid like the words nd there is no scope at all. you have used the old i am going to offend everyone approach that seems to be prevelant on this site and your main aim other than writing is to abuse everybody else except certain people. Maybe as you have already said you have more than one name here, they are all the same person you!. I would start to actually read peoples poems and some classical works too such as Shelley, Keats, Alice Oswald, Jane Griffiths etc and read a few text books on how to write poetry as well and then you may actually produce something worth reading rather than this nonsense and perhaps when you should read other peoples work on this site instead of being sarcastic which is the majority of the postings you have put on here.

You could have just said you were jealous, and be done with it.

I like your pen-name. It's the best thing about this twaddle.
Re: Ballad for a bad Irish accent by zodiac	Edna Sweetlove 85.210.255.116	16-Jan-07/12:03 PM
What the flying fuck is "a seventy-cent hand shandy" ? Or am I missing something just to poetic for words? I assume "Snorkelling Jenny" (double LL please) is a Brechtian reference
Re: A Flower for Monet by Shuushin	Edna Sweetlove 85.210.255.116	16-Jan-07/12:01 PM
Much better than usual. Almost interesting in fact. Still lacking in humour though.
