Will you read and comment on my latest poem, I mean really comment, if I take out the "not"?

No, half-baked ideas are always good, and might turn into fully-baked good ideas. So don't throw them out just because they're half-baked.

You're saying that because I said I like it.

1. They're related 2. Wrong 3. Brown is not bad, but I'm not, and full has nothing to do with it. 4. Bicycling, loving, cooking canned food, eating chips. Score 5:1

Oh, yeah, sure. It's still a silly metaphor.

Yes, soil has swords. Anyone from North Carolina has, sometime in his life, seen the morning hoarfrost spearing its way out of the ground.

So what you're saying is half-baked ideas are great when, and only when, they become fully baked. Good one.

(1) "sorry" doesn't mean sorrowing. Please stop saying that. (2) We don't enjoy thinking you've been humiliated. We know by now you can't be humiliated, even when you've pooed on yourself and don't know it. You think that's a positive characteristic. (3) You're so full of it, you're brown. (4) I have many more pleasures in life than you do. Want to count? zodiac: Loving spouse. Dovina: Nobody :-(

Half-baked ideas are the ingredients for profound inovations. Even if most of them crumble, the good ones have so much potential that none should be crushed merely for half-bakedness. Roll out the dough, let it rise!
Re: The Cowardice of Francis Evans by Caducus	zodiac 69.132.67.140	15-Dec-05/2:21 PM
Soil has swords? Where? Make it something else bejewelled. Or make a better metaphor for frost than jewels. corvids - no apostrophe. platoons - no apostrophe. Hopefully you're starting to get the problem. Sun has risen, not rose. Not even in joke. winter's - with an apostrophe, because it's possessive. Verse 3 is great. The only part of this even close to what I'd call "the style of I like." Verse 4's good too.

Yes, and there's no reason for sorrow. Zodiac and richa enjoy thinking that I've been humiliated in some past. They hope that by saying it, I'll believe, and by agreeing, make it history. They know that history is not necessarily what happened, but what we remember. I usually allow them this small pleasure, not by agreeing, but by not denying. They seem to have so few pleasures in life.

I said that, too phew

I like the first two lines. In winter, all that lives is not necessarily green. "The sun has risen to fall" When it changes from description to story in S3, it feel like the start of a new poem.

I doubt that if all the king's horses and all the king's men couldn't put old Humpty right that he'd be much use in your noble, but British-like, cause.

Just a little... :-/ I posted this as more of a 'hey I'm alive' deal. Rather than 'omfg new poem'

cranium in the third stanza just doesn't sound right for me...

Re: a comment on I Remember Thinking by BrandonW	BrandonW 216.78.99.213	14-Dec-05/10:01 PM
Well, its all pretty much straight forward.. I don't see how you got lost.. But anyways, those lines are just random thoughts that 'I remebered thinking'.. I don't feel I need then to convey the message.. maybe I'll think about keeping only what is needed.
