Stay off the acid kid.

Thank god someone knows what a prose poem is.

Needs more emotion, less rambling.

My dear it's merely a matter of T's and D’s.
You can choose to be chaste
or choose to be chased
but rarely is a woman both of these
for most men are lead from their waist.

Powerful stuff but "rubbing herself till I cried." was kinda creepy.

what are Sea flowers?

Maybe you mean Sea flewers.
on The Big Stupid Dink :) :) by Bethy 23 Aug 2005, 1:53 PM
Kind of an Erma Bombeck rant. Dink will get a laugh no matter where you use it.
Most men will turn Big Dink into a complement. It's just the way our egos work.

He didn't deserve a poem anyway.

Truly an epiphany.
on Dear Lord, by INTRANSIT 25 Aug 2005, 10:25 AM
The last line might need an extra syllable I'm not sure but try sounding it out with "mankind's tide".

on Apollinaire: Mirabeau Bridge by Sasha 27 Aug 2005, 7:22 AM
I've never been the best at punctuation but shouldn't there be commas or something between "over/joy" and "come/bells". Was this a lyrical style poem? Sounds lyrical. It's probably the refrains that do it.

"on the new sheets on my bed."- try "under the sheets of my bed."

"my heart pounded, my chest heaved."- try "heart pounded, chest heaved."

"You can't stay, there's no reason."- "Don't stay, there's no reason."

"Hey, I said,
you forgot your milk."- try "Hey wait" I said,
"you forgot your milk."

That should fix up the rythm some.

No end rhyme in stanza 1?

Great little story. I hope you dumped the milk on his sorry ass, or at least threw it at him.

Don't use "hath" in this poem.
The rest sounds good.
on Jack by Dovina 29 Aug 2005, 4:56 AM
I think a period after "snowflake" and losing the comma after "warm" and "returned" might clarify things.

Is the last line missing a word or maybe "ed" at the end of "dwell".

It's a good little love poem.

Jack is either a rebound lover or Jack Frost?
Hell Jack could even be the dog. But if you were to tell me that Jack was the name of your vibrator I'd piss my pants laughing and proclaim you super-genius.
on The Trees in Spring (edit) by Sasha 29 Aug 2005, 2:21 AM
"Thus Adam who had bitten into God,"
By bitten do you mean "pained".

A suggestion: "Thus Adam who bit the hand of God,"
on Quevedo: Psalm by Sasha 29 Aug 2005, 2:53 AM
A Psalm and a Sonnet. Unique. Although I can't see how this supposed psalm praises god.

Nice trans. though.

Isn't it ironic, don't ya think?
on The Right Thing To Do by Bethy 31 Aug 2005, 9:18 AM
Really sweet of you guys.

Really.
on Dying breed by INTRANSIT 31 Aug 2005, 9:32 AM
I was going to say this is one of the best things I've read in a while but then I noticed you misspelled "bridges" and now it's all just rubbish.
So now I have no choice but to reduce your score to a measly -10-
on matrimonal enemy by hendrimike 31 Aug 2005, 9:43 AM
I don't like the word "Mini-van" in any poem.
Somewhere between Monty Python and Sponge Bob Square Pants.

In some of the lines the cannon ball seems to reveal his gay side don't ya think.

The "Aye!" made me laugh out loud and for that a -10-
