What matter? Are there other books except dictionaries? Perhaps you could throw a couple my way (preferably not in the face or groinal area)

I spent four days in a town next to the Great Orme headland named Llandudno. I recall walking on the stony beaches after 'gentlmen, time please' was called at the bar. The night was soft and relaxing, and the girl was too. I don't remember HER name, but I do remember the sound of the birds on the headland calling into the night.

Don't evade the matter, Roisin. And do consult a few other books besides dictionaries.

I so agree. Although I do not find the grammar in this poem bad at all.

As I was saying, the grammar is not bad in my opinion. In poetry, we often make the grammar awkward for the sake of ryythm or flow. May I ask why you have brought up bad grammar? More importantly, your first comment shows that you do not know what this is about.

Hmmm...how can I be sure of your age? Or in fact your gender? This internet business makes it impossible to prove either (except maybe by web cam) but even then there are no certaintys. How strange the world has become... this argument, be it amusing has no place in the real world. Face to face it, I am 22 and a female and not lonely...maybe think too much and am a little unemployed and hedonistic at present with a slightly messy love life but a pedar, I think not. (I am now dribbling though at the possibility that you buy into my deception and will continue to give me masturbatory fodder)

A pederest is defined as a male. If you would like to accuse me of being a kiddy fiddler then consult the dictionary once again.

I guess its not very linier, more felt than understood.

claiming to be female is exactly what a pederast would do in your position. This is the very thing that now makes me sure you are some sweaty, beer-swilling, male cyberstalker of boys. If you are sure enough about my gender to keep courting me, then at least make sure of my age, puppy.

I'm sorry. I was actually just typing the exact phrase that was on the television in the other room as I was reading your poem.

Why on earth should bad grammar be acceptable in poetry, I would say the opposite, as poetry is about the most beautiful use of the language bad grammar should be less acceptable in poetry, at least poetry that aspires to be good poetry.

Yes there is an ear in hearing and an I sight the English language gives me such delight I think you are pushing for the comment though.

>> Well, I'm female so definitely not a pederast<< (while I'm at it, allow me to rewrite the line in comprehensible English) You yourself may not be one, but don't take your gender as a dead certainty.

It's about the way I ask.

Well, I'm female so definately not a pederest...Why do you think I may be making a sexual play for you...perhaps spurred on by your seductive word play. I am not lonely, maybe bitter but not because of 'poemranker.com'. I am not attempting to be bigger than myself and do not see how you can accuse me of such a thing- explain as you will? I am either as big as I appear or wrong- I allow you to disagree with any logical fallacies within my argument but slander of this type is meaningless. (Yes I hope I am self-possessed-blimey if I was possessed by any other being I may have cause to worry).
