No, I just meant grammatically. In the poem, "answer" is what comes - or, rather, "come". I know the last line is a comparison. A repetition, actually (which I think more and more is what makes poetry poetry.) In truth, the comparison is implicit in the first stanza: Midwesterners think summer following rain isn't strange; since the poem's about Californians, we naturally think that Californians probably do think it's strange. It's not necessary to say so again. Particularly not for a last line. My thinking for the moment is that "or rain's __________ result" should be the last line. I've no idea what the blank should be. 'inevitable', 'unfathomable', 'stillborn', and about a dozen others I've tried don't work - exactly. Something along those lines, though, and you'll be all aces.

Do you think the shape of balls is inappropriate?

It hasn't been a point of discussion since Simone Beauvoir and a dozen others made out what jackasses we all were for persisting in thinking the sun was male. These days, we tend to just stay indoors.

PS-I just read an Adrienne Rich poem that used triple spacebar-hits and line-ends for punctuation. I thought you'd like to know.

Just out of curiosity, what did you make of it?

Are you insane? It's obvious you either are lil_evil_boi or a very close friend of his. Can you actually go through the day thinking 'Hey, there's somebody who really likes my poems! "Speechless", he said!' That's nuts.

If I post a little programming segment and call it "Beak Flapping Flagellation," will you say I'm funny too.

I'll watch it. Next time when I click the wrong box, I'll delete it and try again. I have actually a state of the art mouse. It's a Philippe S+arck design, looks like a metallic beetle and has a blue-lighted strip on its back. The scrolling wheel is illuminated in the same way. It looks like a Flash Gordon car. All other pc components look like 1960's Tupperware

Your comment appears as a reply to mine. That's the same as talking to me. If you want to address the poet, your comment should be placed in the comment box right under the poem.
Re: a comment on Always Forever by Princess_Snowflake	some deleted user 81.69.23.196	6-Jun-05/5:47 PM
Why did you think I was addressing you?? I was reviewing the poem. Unless P_Snowflake is a Dovina alias?

Thanks~ I'll try to improve.

My name does not fit with this poem. You should be ashamed of your failure. This piece does not run smoothly and I actually fell asleep while reading it (not exaggerating). It lacks interest and the repetition does not fit in this poem. Better luck next time!
Re: Soldier by kev_wannabe	sacred_poet_me 70.68.76.244	6-Jun-05/5:39 PM
Comparing to 'Bunnie Crazy In Love' this one kinda suck...no offense, but I find this poem uninteresting and lacks interests. You should try to spice it up a little. This masterpiece shows that sometimes great poets can write unpowerful poems too. But, good try!
Re: a comment on Always Forever by Princess_Snowflake	Dovina 69.175.32.185	6-Jun-05/5:39 PM
o I see, "There's not one moment where I give a shit about you and your dear friend," was said calmly and smilingly. Forgiven, anyway.
Re: Bunnies crazy inlove by kev_wannabe	sacred_poet_me 70.68.76.244	6-Jun-05/5:38 PM
WOW. You're good!
Re: a comment on Always Forever by Princess_Snowflake	some deleted user 81.69.23.196	6-Jun-05/5:37 PM
Am I shouting? I'm not shouting. But you're right Dovina; my mouse squinted again.

"Be cute." is better and shorter.

NAHH...this is not good. Not at all. You should be ashamed!
