Wilfred Owen was ruined for me by a bearded teacher whom in our third year (Really year 10? I didn't realise attending a Royal Grammar School meant you had the same form structure as Grange Hill) informed us all that Wilfred has a bum sexual who liked to receive it from Siegfried Sasson. Having recently reread Memoirs of Fox Hunting man I feel sure that Siegfried hunted both foxes and badgers but still like to believe that you don't have to be a massive homa to write good poetry. By the way, did you see that your old physics teacher was such a dunce he had to sit his GCSE Maths? I hope you never told people you went to a "public school" whilst at college and instead pointed out you went to a fee paying grammar school.

A splendid juxtaposition. Answering as many questions as it poses, closing as many doors at it opens. A maginicent edifice upon which to build the real foundations of a splendid career in observational poetry. Not many people take on the whole God versus Darwin theme and fewer still succeed in such a candid and abstract formulation to illustrate the stark, and when highlighted, glaring similar differences. The whole poem revolves around the forest/record counter-analogy which is such a subtle play on the words as to probably escape the grasp of most rankers. Although a pithy crumb to offer up to an altar of omni-knowledge, I would like to highlight that there is a word which transcends the two halves of this poem. And that I am afraid is the brogue. Neither the creation, alone, of a deity nor the result of man's need to clad his feet, the brogue typifies the grey areas left untrammelled by your fine words. The brogue is an example of the expedience of evolution confronting the glory of ornate religion combining to suffuse the surface of an otherwise ugly, plain shoe with the beauty of a greater more magnificent entity. In summary I believe this poem would be better had you alluded to the brogues role in whole creation debate. I believe Darwin himself was a man clad from ankle to toe in the finest brogues from the whole of Northampton.

How dare you enter into conversation, With an gentleman so above your station, This is not a meritocracy, I am from better stock you see. Poulaines are ace, for a court jester, Or indeed the Earl of Leicester, But not for me those pointy jokes, Commonly worn by poorer folks, Best left for the poorer squires, Who own not half the shires, Wear them please, you lowly clerks, For those in the pages of Burkes, Kniow to wear a shoe of such decor, That people like you will fall to the floor, And kiss the brogue of a Lord and Knight, Know thee now, the patterns might.

Any gentleman worth his salt, Would not the Wellington exalt, Knowing they're for the tenant farmer, To act as gumboot, pigshit armour. His lordship does not condescend, To wear boots you can bend, Prefering the stiffness of a brown shoe, Coated in a patterned tatoo.
Re: a comment on Brogues are best by Stephen Robins	4-Oct-04/5:39 AM
Wellington boots are an abomination, Making clear your lowly station, And upon further investigation, It appears your overly fond of masturbation, And of homsexual orientation, The National Aeronautics and Space Administration, Do not from the Wellington boot draw inspiration, No, Nay, Nor for education, Unless bearing brogued decoration.

No one cares about your poetry, my comment is the first on any of your work for 6 weeks. Do you get the impression that the we are all getting a little tired of your preconscious, childish ramblings?
Re: a comment on Faith by Dovina	26-Aug-04/4:10 AM
Gerald Bumflange in his widely respected tome, "The Irish had it coming" has refuted previous works by Grenville Cheesehead whom had argued in his seminal work "Bogtrotters, Blights and Blarney" that the Irish were the architects of their own misfortune owing to their dependence on chips. Bumflange argued that if the English overlords has repeeled the smash laws of 1813, which as any historian knows forbade the Irish dried potato subsitute, the whole ghastly famine could have been avoided. Norman Gash in is underated but oververbed book "What have the Irish ever given us except tinkers?" stated that it was all a Fiennan plot to make generations feel sorry for the Irish for being hungry. In summary I beleieve that Bismarck did successfully use a policy of "Blood and Iron" to unite Germany.

Dear Doug, Please disregard the fatuous remarks above, they are a weak attempt to curry favour with you. We all know the only way to curry favour is to get an ethnic to do it. Your bestest friend in whole world, Stephen Throbbington Robins
Re: Tonight At The Dead Man's Ball by dougsoderstrom	24-Aug-04/2:54 AM
Dear Doug, Why'd you delete my comment? That sort of runs counter to the thrust of your liberal minded theology does it not? I don't go around in a huff deleting others comments because I do not agree with them; that would make me a facist censor who would quite happily pogromise the entire site of people who disagree with my opinons. Take my constructive criticism as it is intended Doug othrwise you run the risk of becoming an insufferable Nazi. And zodiac is a jew so you don't want to offend him do you? Take my comment as it is intended Doug. Worried, SW11.
