Why are there so many people called 'horus8'? I thought it was just some meaningless thing you made up. I think there's something you're not telling us, Mr. Handrinos.

Welcome to Poemeranker. I am -=Dark_Angel=-, the naughty one. You will probably see me again at some point, mocking your tepid, clichéd poemes. Have a good time!

Chives are the very lifeblood of the tramp! To offer chives to a tramp is the utmost folly... Would you offer fuel to a fire? Yes, yes, I suppose you would. Then go, go into the chives lounge with my blessings, and return with an armful of aromatic deformity, and spread it on all who will be spread 'pon.

So are you saying that it was a completely different horus8 who was looking for animal porn?

I'm sorry a2 but I fail to see the humour in little Ganeesha's rather sudden decision to pay a visit to the clouds while simultaneously spreading herself over an entire field. And all because she was trying to save a tortoise who had been foraging for grapes up a tree. Honestly, a2! How do you think her mother felt?

I rather fancy you would enjoy the horrifying short stories of Thomas Ligotti. He's like a cross between H.P. Lovecraft and F. Kafka, but with more insane, screaming mannequins.

Yes you're quite right, nolan. Expression is beauty. Whether it comes from the hate-filled brain-wrong of a racist arse-face who is just trying to express his distaste for a 12 year old African American girl whose Wheeled-Chair was taking up too much room, or it is the expression on your bum just before it implodes in a giant shower of kidneys, doesn't matter. They are both valid sentiments and both worthy of beauty.
It is true that there is a fine line between trying and doing, and in today's "couldn't care less" society, I think we often get the distinction wrong, sometimes failing to see the line altogether, other times seeing it all too clearly and being too afraid to cross it. Under those circumstances, I really think you've just got to take a chance and bite the bullet, so to speak. Take little Ganeesha, for instance:
"Ganeesha is an 8 year old girl living in Rwanda. I read about her experiences on the Landmine Action website, a site dedicated to the campaign against the use of landmines in military conflict. Rwanda is a country that has been devastated by civil war - a war, I might add, in which thousands of landmines were deployed in over 2,000 mine fields, covering an area the size of Africa. Little Ganeesha lived a few hundred yards away from such a minefield. One day, Ganeesha was playing with some rice in a little bowl right next to the minefield. She was just about to run back to her hut to help her mother with the cooking when she heard a faint scratching sound with the corner of her ear. She looked up, her big brown eyes wide open and staring, with an expression of startled innocence on her child-like face. On the other side of the minefield, she saw something that made her heart fill with despair - a tortoise had climbed up a tree to forage for grapes, but it had got tangled in some sticks and was bleating terribly. Ganeesha took pity on the creature an ran up to the edge of the minefield. She looked down at the border line and remembered her mother's warnings, but the sound of the bleating tortoise was too much for little Ganeesha to bear. Holding her breath, she stepped over the line and walked calmly towards the tortoise..."
Of course, little Ganeesha exploded instantly in a giant shower of gore. But I think the message is clear: life's too short to waste time worrying about which line we cross and when. Because if you just follow your heart and stay true to yourself, you can do anything you put your mind to. You can touch the clouds, and never have to look back.

How true.... how true. We do all wear masks, don't we? Not literally, of course. Not figuratively either. Masks aren't intended to hide your identity. They're decorations. The metaphor of masks for "acting self-consciously" is completely tired and wrong.

It's typical of you to avoid the issue, diamondwife. You know perfectly well you don't have an adequate theory of depth for emotions, so you try to turn it around and call me a child molester. Well I've had enough. Don't call me anymore. I won't be calling you.
