I say this only because poemranker has corrupted me: "Sounds gay."

A jingle has rhythm, usually rhyme, and carries a simple theme. A love letter conveys affection. This carries: don't shake the baby???

Permit yourself to do such a dasterdly act only if you wish boycot. If you want to get rid of a scroungy poem because I made you feel bad about it, then please delete it. If you want to post a new poem, then post it. It's not like you post every two days and need to squeeze another in edgewise. Gees!

You speak, no doubt, of a super man, whom women long for, gush on, then nurse in his paralyzed state til death do us part. Thank you, but your basic binary man, enhanced with compassionate software, outperforms in the end.

I'd hate to give a long thoughtful reply here where Dancing Shamrock will likely soon delete it. I love when you say, "You'll probably answer . . ." because I can usually do just that and fully justify it by one of the various twists offered. But in this case you do not understand bnecause you are not bound by reason.
I would not trust a man so arogant as to say he trumps. Such a man has not learned the contentment of not knowing. - Dovina

Considering the varying results, it made for a worthwhile experiment. I'd give it a 1 or 10 depending on my mood. Right now I'm kinda numb so no vote yet.

I'd probably give it a five or a six. Cute gimmick.

I'd like to know what you honestly think of your poem.

I think a poem has to stand on its up-front understandability, so for the purposes of rating it--if you don't understand it, trash it. That's honest. That's how much value the poem has _for you_.
But just to satisfy any curiousity you might have, read it as morse code.

You probably won't see this but this is like a blend of two of my favorite poets. E.A. Poe and Benny Hill.
Kilkenny? Southpark?
The poem's a classic or should be.

First: Does that ability to echoe word sounds, not rhyme but echoe certain qualities in words together come naturally or is it more of a hair pulling event.
Because this one comes out so damn natural.
Second: Love how you snuck "bore" in.
Third: I bet you're leaning towards the bug being Jesus. I was.
Forth: There's a current political spin to this one, intended or not.
I could spend all day peeling back layers of this poem.
A sign of a great artwork. You really shouldn't give some of these away for free.

This, unsurprisingly, is exactly what everyone always says about nentwined. That's his gift and curse.

Do you remember a recent exchange about "labelling" or are you somehow unhinged?

The hidden part was that I was wondering if she was pregnent and if so it sounds like it's almost birthday time. If not I hope you're going to see her soon anyway.
