Nope, only a poet/jock/skeptic/actor I'm afraid.

I actually meant that in jest! And anyway, it's a pretty common error.

It was nice.
line 6: A[n] irridescent...
third stanza looks out of place with the repeated phrase: I lay back into the sheets...

Couldn't resist nitpicking. Is "ofcourse" actually accepted as a word.
Thanks for the compliment. Many of the best sonnets break the rules a little. What about the "Till then" you forgot to mention that too.

Oh a warning. If you nitpick little things like spelling in peoples comments and replies (unless for comedic reasons like when for instance a girl writes calk when what she really wants is cock) then folks will stop bothering to talk to you altogether. Which may or may not explain your popularity in your personal life.

You are here because someone told you you need to ask forgiveness for practically everything you do. Now that you have an answer, I hope you'll consider getting off your knees and going outside.

Yes, I understand that. As far as Mary Magdalene goes, I'll go ahead and guess you love the redeemed Mary Magdalene, and not Mary Magdalene while she was actually whoring. I don't think it's fair to call her a prostitute after her redemption.
Supposing you DO love the unredeemed Mary Magdalene - well, I just don't think you can love someone whom you want to redeem. I think that means you love some idea of what she or he will become, and not the person as she or he is. You're welcome to disagree. That's also one of my biggest problems with Christianity - probably coming from the Christian belief in a soul that somehow exists above and uncomplicit in sin. Like THE REAL MAGDALENE is a nice, beautiful person just kind of floating around while the Unreal, Earthly Magdalene does all this whoring. I just don't buy it. Like I said, feel free to disagree.

There's no concrete evidence to support Mary Magdalene was even a prostitute. It's just as likely she was the mother of The Christ's child that is if you choose to be at the other gullible end of the spectrum. Hey, I've come to realize that just about every Indian (is that the right term) I've met has had a better english vocabulary then most southerners. I myself don't know a damn word of indian.

That's odd. You'd think if I were 18 I'd have denied being 26, a disgraceful age if there ever was one.
Of course, what it really comes down to is, I've currently acheived the happiness I grew up thinking I was entitled to. Can you say that?

You're right. How could I have missed such a big part of our conversations?
DOVINA: You're getting off topic.
ZODIAC: I think that about covers it.

The poem ofcourse is great but you've used 10+ syllables in a few line. Don't they break out of the pentameter?
And just couldn't resist nitpicking on this bit of a comment by you.
"actually excepted as a word"
Isn't that supposed to be 'accepted'?
