Well stated, though I disagree with your conclusion.
Dovina on science by whispern_smoke_wisp 9 Apr 2005, 10:37 AM
Science has explained away none of the magic of love between dog and human. The study of evolution only enhances the magic.

First off there is a reply button next on the right hand side of every comment, use it. Second, its not about what you feel anymore the second you hit the submit button is it? You are being told, very blunt and honestly, that no, it doesn't add to the "continuity and style". It makes what could have been some okay verse, better used as toliet paper than read.

dancin_n_da_moonlite on You Were There by danevie 9 Apr 2005, 9:14 AM
you have the disconcerting habit of having someone remedy your ills in the past tense while you are still in the present-----
"as if it wil all my problems mend" ---- if you can't make your rhyming sound at all natural perhaps you should not try rhyming - this sounds incredibly forced

This is actually a chancrous cock on a string

Mixtapes aren't always for another person. In this case I made a mixtape of songs that reminded me of her. Out of curiousity, is your rating for the poem or for mixtapes in general?
Mix tapes are pathetic. When you make a mix tape, you think, "How eclectic she'll think my tastes are!" You think juxtaposing a "beautiful acoustic guitar song" with a "hard rock" song is deeply meaningful.

It might just be me, but I'm alot like John Cusek in High Fidelity. If I find that I really like someone I generally find that I listen to a lot of love songs during that period and often make mixtapes for that person or of songs that remind me of that person. I wrote this because I was (and still am somewhat) frustrated about a relationship that doesn't really go anywhere. I thought the parallel was interesting because I kept making mixtapes (cheesy, I know) and the songs would transition just like the relationship would progress, but in the end the mixtape and the relationship didn't really go anywhere. It always ended where it began. It's the same way in life, but I also used that because I think it's somewhat ironic how dead it feels to be in love in the spring right now. Birds and chirping, the sun is shining. It just makes me sick. Heh.

Look, we already promised you your ten acres and a mule. We're just working out a few details, then we'll deliver.
Dovina replying on Moments (or) Suicide by Dovina 8 Apr 2005, 5:20 PM
Well, I guess I didn't make that clear. I graded my life on a straight-line percentage basis. Please grade yours on curves witnessed, curves felt, curves entered, or any other basis you choose for counting Moments.
edpeterson on Moments (or) Suicide by Dovina 8 Apr 2005, 4:30 PM
Are we supposed to give a numerical vote on your life, or on the poem? Life: 2.1, poem: -0-
Dan garcia-Black on Moments (or) Suicide by Dovina 8 Apr 2005, 4:11 PM
Are grading your life on strict percentages or are you willing to use a curve?
Dan garcia-Black on Middle-Aged White Woman by Dovina 8 Apr 2005, 4:07 PM
It's good but I want ten acres and a mule before I'll let myself forget what "you people" did to those people
