Some very good lines here. "absentmindedly holding my breath" Was my fave. I often do that, especially for some reason when I'm writing.

"from your lips" of your lips. The rest he will consider trite and unmoving unfortunately. Since he's lipless.

I hate late at night when your legs begin sweating and you're not even moving? I hate that kind of heat.
Re: a comment on Playa been caught in their games. (revised/new) by LuckyJoe	11-Aug-03/11:56 AM
Please, where you were going with it? There is no perplexing riddle to the theme or this poems point. It's your classic under loved housewife/or unmarried longterm girlfriend/lied to mistress blues coupled by the inevitable 'and all this love you gave away for what in return revelation?'. There's nothing to it. Nothing new. You should get risky and write it from the other person's perspective. And I wasn't crying I was doing the Jerk. So what does that leave you with? lol.

Probably one of the best Sonnets on Poemranker, and, as always, very intelligent and observant.

The poem began like that as a birthday gift to myself called "happy Birthday Horus8!" I was so amused by having the gall to write the title like that it made me giggle, but then i went #4 on the best list and it started to get a lot of hits, so I took it down, because, well a couple of reasons, but mostly when I see a good vehicle to advertise on I use it.

Please, don't leave stupid shit on my poetry. This motherfucker and me have been arguing from before you even picked up a pencil, this argument is over a year long, and I will not have you blowing smoke up this piece of shit's ass on my piece of shit poem, God dammit, he's already smoking like motherday's present ceramic sixth grade ashtray thank's to his morning class boob count.

"Look, I am sorry Ms Peabody (Whomever the fuck that is) rejected you" As a young actor/writer/musician, rejection is the least of my worriess and an every day occurence. Why do you constintly change the subject? My argument was on editors that do not edit, idiot, not editors rejecting work. As a debatest, you suck. Also, have you ever seen me smoke a joint or shoot up? No, So... What the fuck are you talking about? Don't confuse fact with fiction i don't assume that you are a lawn mowing daughter fucking drunk do I? That's right... everything other than the point that's what you're good at. LA? What the fuck does that have to do with anything? Paris, NewYork, San Francisco, Bangkock, Shitsville Missouri it's all the same. Besides, neither me nor GW live in La, idiot. I live in Hancock Par and she lives in Whittier. Also my website deals with my music, not my prose or poetry and everything is free, people with an image ego problem put a price tag on their beauty and art, I do not! So what the fuck are you talking about? I work with script editors, film editors, story editors, directors, writers, other poets, musicians, ,producers on all levels every fucking day all week every week and they don't share your deluded opinion, because if they did? I wouldn't have a career They give me their notes, we discuss the changes and change it, EGO? Ha! Sorry friend, Crying? Oh dear, you got me, crying in my weed and heroin? I have never heard such nonsense for no reason ever from anyone other than you. Talk about unecessary cheap pathetic shots in the dark, it's practically comical. Do you do that to your family and friends? Low blow them until they finally conclude that if you're rubbed wrong you'll start digging for weapons? I raised a point that you can't seem to defend without going a hundred other directions. What no pedophillia no boston market today? You must of got your ass kicked a lot growing up and one day you're going to cross the wrong motherfucker motherfucker until then go back to your vodka chick drinks and go impress some college freshmen with your unimpressing pressings "Cry baby". oh and by the way,. Mr. Lish was and is awesome, but every writer/scholar knows that, why in the fuck should I have to confirm that to you? It's common knowledge.

Try actually asking. Communicating is more than insults, tantrums and posture. It takes both subjects to compromise.

Re: The Writing Life by poetandknowit	9-Aug-03/2:35 PM
http://www.salon.com/media/1998/09/01media.html I think you will appreciate this. Every good writer ultimately needs and editor. Even Stan rice had and editor! Reply X  horus8 24.126.113.154 09-Aug-03, 12:46 PM Editors edit not theorize about the benefits of editors. Misses Peabody from NFG magazine couldn't edit a cantalope for breakfast with her staff of flunkys. That is my opinion, and if she wants to disagree she can put her writing and editing where her mouth is, because I have yet to see any literature that would contrast my point. As for the eighties and Lish? Who gives a fuck. And as for Stan Rice... Ha ha! You care more about that guy and bring him up more than I ever have. Cheers. Reply X  poetandknowit 67.40.59.239 09-Aug-03, 01:48 PM Your right, you do not need an editor. You write perfect little ditties. Sorry about the declines from NFG. However, I bet you are declined a lot because no one understands how deep and poetic you are. Fuck them all. You are better than that and deep, deep underground. Maybe I was thinking different for a minute, but no, you are a joke. Reply X  horus8 24.126.113.154 09-Aug-03, 02:27 PM You are an idiot. I do need an editor you ass. That's what I'm fucking saying? An editor takes the poetry and edits it, sends it back to the author for approval, or any of his changes, then vice versa again until it satisfies both all parties included. you know that as well as I do. When you have a board of editors half of which can't write, and ALL contradicting each other's suggestions while even unaware that they're doing that? I mean give me a break... Ha ha, Oh and through the entire process the poet is called on to do the actual editing via vague contradictory suggestions? I believe that to be a joke. I need an editor that edits. You are a joke Mrs. Peabody, not I. So let's review. I need an editor. I love editors, but only editors that indeed 'edit'. If you think for a moment Lish edited from the phone verbally, or by offering his writers a one sentence critique you my friend are the joke because, that man wrote while 'editing', he made the appropriate changes, okayed it with the author in question, and then sent it through. You are a lazy idiot to think otherwise, not that I didn't know that already Senior asswear. Reply X  horus8 24.126.113.154 09-Aug-03, 02:34 PM Oh, and by the way, fuck you. Your poetry sucks. Rest assured in knowing it's not about who's better than who, or "underground" or any of that shit you fucking pretentious jealous twit. It's about the art form and the magic of story telling... You fucking think I care so much about image, and you couldn't be farther from the heart. Any day any time any where you say when, and I will put your argument in the trash can where it belongs along with your contrived selfish agenda. Poet and Knowit? Yeah, how fucking ridiculous does that user name sound, and you call me a joke. HA!
