oh dear...what do you think is for you proper? Sounds like you think you deserve something better, we have only what we create and if your creation is words, make them come alive.

Whenever I pine for you to be mine
I remember what my father used to say
You can have anything you want but you cant have
everything you want at the same time
If this is what you want
you can't have me
there's probably one too many wants...if this is what you need
you can't have me
and pine, really?

no, not attacking the frost at all...just puting some emphasis on the process of defrosting, and no matter what the item is it's never the same as the original. It always loses something, and I wonder what we lose when tinkering with life.

some thoughts about artificial insemination, a bit of a follow on from Daddy works at the bank. As for the hint/smell of porpoise, do you live by the sea?

As much as I enjoy the short poem, due to lack of true inteligence...I can't seem to get a handle on this one. There's no oomph or moment of clarity, or nod, or small smile, or any of the things that brings instant understanding of what your saying, that should come with shorter writes.
"You wanna go do somethin'?"
sighs
"Nah"
- boredom, apathy...a statement, but is it poetry? hmmm?

swapping to competing existances reads to me like a race, rather than a statement of how it is. fingers driven explains the fingers are being driven by something without his control whereas driven fingers, to me, seems to imply he has control. hyphen dropped as well as line 14... 13 stays, I like it. :)
Thanks for the input - well appreciated as always.

I wanted to be spare - create the energy of serial killing, the need and driving ambition of it, as coldly as possible.
The line is 'creating monuments' not moments.

Iv'e been messing about with this one Dovina, to get the last stanza working as I see it, to no avail. I might leave it for a bit and see if anything shows up later. The rain/sane has bearing though - we are both a little unstable and we met in the rain...ah! so romantic, a couple of soggy fruit loops :)
