Yes, and number one should be aids. Here is your task, save the planet from aids. What will heaven say then but "surely come in" Or ducks, I believe ducks have gotten a bad poetic deal in the scheme of things. Songbirds, crows and the almighty EAGLE are the survey says front runner, but I picked up this information from an inside source... Write up aids and ducks, wait... OH MY GOD... write about ducks with aids, create a whole galxy of ducks with aids, and their battle against Mallardophobia, fowlpes, and the dreaded DuCKBuTTER.

You are the darkest ninja ever, I know you think I'm a total cad, because well, I am, but you have taught me more about writing in two years than I would ever care to list. But here is a try: 1. Nudity, is and always has been sacred, and if not it's still a great way to check for genital herpes prior to intercourse, and or anal cauliflower. 2. Uranus, though impossible to get to, would be beautiful if we could. 3. Tribal drum beats can be used for more than just sex and cooking, it's a great way to get the hippies out of the high traffic areas at hot spots. 4.You are only as good as your butler. 5. You are only as tame as your beard. 6. Johdpurs do exceptional things, even for the hips of the handicapped and or minority polo player, jockies, (a)equestrians. 7. All great writers need gimicks, I have Spuna... you have prawns and other sub orders of various things. shoes, clergy, old people etc... 8. At last, but not least, new age wiccan ass hats and goth cutters and suicide saturated sissies, bipolar bird lovers, and hippies that make beer coasters out of cork? Should be immediately executed with slighly boiled peeled potatoes shot from a high pressure air cannon. Well, maybe not totally 'that' in a nut shell, but that's the joy of reading poetry? It is what you want it to be, unless you're a total dick fluff, and think the clear channel is actually clear.

Your observations were indeed correct though, thank you, well 50% of them were, and the rest are just personal taste issues, but thanks, I'll keep them in mind when I do my second edit. Sorry for being an asshole, but people bother me, especially idiots, wiccans, christians, politicians, lawyers, editors, internet magazine hacks, bad artists, pop stars, basically anyone under the age of 22 and over the age of 35, anyone that takes themselves too seriously, styraight people, puritans, rich people, on and on and on, so far I only get along with the help and extremely ancient homosexuals.
Re: a comment on Emily Mae by horus8	4-Feb-04/4:48 PM
I'm really not interested in reading 'other's' work, thanks, but I find it distracting, and because I'm trying to work and support my family on a simple artists wages, it's not what I'd call using my time wisely. All of your notes are valid, but at that point in writing (the final polish, this was the first write) it becomes 'personal' prefference, style, and touches, and neither here nor there. BuT that'S A GOOD ONE! "me foaming" I mean, because, if you knew me, you'd be able to get close enough to smell the foam is merely twinkie cream, I'm just a dick, I'm not interested in teaching poetry for free, or sharing ideas, or talking shop, or any of that other fucking l2 S7 verse bazooka page one crap, I was doing that 4,000 comments ago, now I've come to the conclusion that it's dull, boring and useless, now if you're an editor, and making a living sure, by all means, but I'm not, I'm a poet, no big deal. I think you are confusing an education and the appropriate language and terminology of writing, the elements of style etc... with having talent? Any fucking moron can learn how to edit, now having the passion and the conviction and the gimmicks it takes to be a poet, two different things. the world of the imaginitive to the world of the "CORRECT" Doesn't interest me, in fact, it makes me '"giggle" like I said any lit major can correct a poem, being a poet, however, is more than that, but that's a great tool to have if you are, not the other way around.
Re: a comment on Emily Mae by horus8	4-Feb-04/4:34 PM
What was that your impression of a brain that works? Indeed, I'll keep that in mind when I'm shopping for my next editor, or if I want to talk about the stitching work, doctor to doctor, on a hysterectomy gone horribly afoul.

Re: a comment on Soft Speak; Hard Emotion by Blindpoetry	4-Feb-04/3:09 PM
You look like a pig in a jam jar, cute. Sure, I'm jealous, but this type of 'creature' always goes to you first... But, will you be having her modeling johdpurs for the good fight down the road, or will you rather end up flashing her fleeing the stadium streaking and cackling out into the night? you've always been a giving poet, I remember that time when me and magical Max the hippie debeaner went out to the track that fateful summer of 62' To bet on your horse "Horn'd Shoe" as per the instructions you had left for us on the napkin in "Stixcker's Pub" but Max, a chronic asthma victim, hacked up a loogie and accidentilly... used said napkin to catch said flung matter. So, what we thought said "Bet the Barn" said "I'm in the barn" If we'd only checked, we might have saved you from your unfortunate hay rolling incident that left you permanently sneezing, and found out that "horn'd shoe"... only had three legs, not to mention, that the jockey was no other than a horribly obese german ex chelo player from that band "the glue factory" alas, so much suffering could have been avoided, I'd still be a lad, and you'd still be... a dancer.
Re: a comment on Emily Mae by horus8	4-Feb-04/2:48 PM
So you're saying this poem will be judged 'on content' and not structure or quality? You are by far and away well beyond name calling lady, you are a world class stink cunt, seriously, do you know how fucking stupid you sound saying that? You are talking TO HORUS8 (the prince of flairlessnes and tasteless writing, but I do still write the occasional 'real' poem as do others like dark angel and poets that use writing to stretch in all directions), not some fucking twenty year old lesbian at a wake? You think I care about what you think about my work? I just sold my first book to a major publishing house Lenore, I don't need your or anyone elses approval or praise, got that, My point is your original comment was so far from having anything to do with the poem at all I can't help but think you didn't even read it? For one, I'm not in the poem either is my loneliness? In fact you said nothing about the poenm at all, only some other shit about all of the pimple poems on poemranker, I don't write pimple poems Lenore, I think your barking up the wrong tree, and you should pull your foot out of your mouth and apologize, not to me, but to honest convicted poetry with sound structure and selfless real life events. That's where your apology lies, there and in your own heart, you are a perfect example of a bitter lonely bitch that's read too much Raven Silverwolf or whatever other stupid mediocre new age bullshit you and your book club is buying into out there on Walden's pond
Re: a comment on Emily Mae by horus8	4-Feb-04/2:37 PM
Also, me? lonely, lighthouse? what the fuck are you talking about? This poem has nothing to do with me? Is my name Emily Mae? Am a fucking Mom? Who taught you how to read poetry Barbara Bush?
Re: a comment on Emily Mae by horus8	4-Feb-04/2:32 PM
There is nothing wrong with this vilanelle, grammar, or spelling, it's a taste full poem, and I disagree, your not a poet with enough credibility to even begin to rate my work let alone a vilanelle, and my harsh name calling was meant to be, you fucking hack kneed dwarf fucker, you'll be lucky if I don't parody your entire body of work using nothing but spoons and douche metaphors for your wiccan vaginal spooge and mindless 'moon mama' poetic homeruns of shit. The scented candle and rubbing oils are that way, love, now move your ass before I take your body of work and turn them all into horus8 torture sessions of ugly older housewives and the men that love to abuse them. Do I make myself clear, I admit, have the shit I write is propaganda and neither here nor there, but to come along and claim this poem is in poor taste is unexcusable, and just a lie, this is a well written poem, you are either jealous, or stupid, or confused, I don't know if you write many vilanelles, but this poem is indeed a wonderful vilanelle, and to say you think it's trite or full of this or that is wrong, it's reserved, poignant, and true, it conveys, to me, what this twenty year old girl that was raped and kept the baby anyway only too lose her daughter later at a year old to a brain tumor? What? And I'm not even pissed because of your blatant disregard to All that's 'feminine' and 'Wiccan' or 'EArthly'. I'm pissed because it's lazy self centered mother fuckers like you that keep this world from waking up, while you point the finger at me and call me the devil, or the bad tasteless poet, in all reality, it's you and your peers that are heartless, selfish, dry cunts hopped up personal enlightenment and enless series of hopeless CONTRADICTIONS IN LIFE STYLE, love, work, you're a joke, a sell out, a blind accusor of what YOu are guilty of daily, not me bitch, I have CONVICTION, I have justice, I know what I stand for, and that's bad news for you and your disorganized body of liberal ferret fuckers, when I have my day? better run, because you're the first on my list of ethnic cleansing.
Re: a comment on Notes toward a possible poem by Nicholas Jones	4-Feb-04/11:30 AM
Hey, we can't help it if you live in a world full of dick mouth? I'd suggest, recognizing the fact, your poetry will never compete with this mans. how you dance around pretending that your opinion is based on talent, or wicca, or a mouthful of cock, is intriguing, but in the end, if you put your poems next to his? You'd be just another shitty new england writer, not that you aren't a fucking steaming mullosk already. Yeah, that's right cunt, I got your number now. fifty years of having me climb up your ass and remind you that I don't care for you at all, and in fact, I never did. that's why it's going to be such a pleasure reviewing everything you do for the rest of your days.

I find it hard to believe that you write, period. You're a horribly mediocre poet with the range of a fart in the desert sun.
