nicholas--there's unplanted topsoil here, until the last 4 lines. stop telling me. you've fallen off here. use your eyes to write with, your nose, your fingertips and toes.

Re: The Eskimo and the fish by INTRANSIT |
4-Mar-03/1:43 PM |
hey, intransit.
some questions for you:
do inuits chant when fishing? does this scare the fish? because of these nagging thoughts, i have issues with the way you have changed the poem. you have taken something pritine and clear, and thrown sediment into it. the chant is too sentimental, i think. if spiritualistic contemplation is your aim, change "auger" back to "augur", and go from there.
your second chant changes him from automaton to thinker, which is not a bad shift, but, i think, shows too much intrusion of mind for a piece that focus on rote. it's a start of a shift, but not an entire shift.
okay, the thoughts came out full formed. trim them.

keen-edged hurt, here.
did you know that these regrow? they will look and feel different--maybe a different color or shape--they will have different sensitivities. but they will serve you well, as you will them. it's not over. step into the current. get washed away in the whitewater. it's the only way to fly.

what happens if you duct tape buttered toast, butter side up, of course, to a cat, and drop it off the top of a building?
do you create an anti-gravity field? didn't someone try this once?
the cat HAS to land on its feet. the toast HAS to land butter-side down.
maybe -=Dark_Angel=- can step in, and offer a ray of light, here? or at least some sort of conditional statement?
