Re: Metametahaiku by -=Dark_Angel=-, P.I. 7-Mar-04/6:32 PM
Apparently.
Re: metahaiku by ex0teric 7-Mar-04/8:14 AM
five, seven then five -
do you need an abacus?
I counted this thrice.
Re: Woman in the purple cotton jacket(repaired) by INTRANSIT 7-Mar-04/7:41 AM
I'm fine up to "I wretched", and you throwing a pineapple slice - that's just sad, IT.

The reader ends up feeling more pity for the author. I'm fine with the prosthetic wielding lady, that is at least an interesting vignette.
Re: I could rule myself by fevriere 7-Mar-04/7:36 AM
very nice: "My touch is toxic and abundant", and I like much of the other descriptions, too.

The lack of enjambment... I don't think it does much for you in this case.

And I agree with half of what Zodiac says, and I'm fine with "ouverture"

[slaps forehead] oh yeah.
Re: a comment on Early Morning by fevriere 2-Mar-04/6:11 PM
Roger that(than-Q) - btw, I like that whole phonetic spelling thing - gonna use that someplace (hey, when a guy writes a poem a day he can get pretty desperate - its actually not a terrible idea. I wonder if it's been done? Musta been).
Re: Pop the Pill by etherealmaiden 2-Mar-04/6:07 PM
Was liking it until "My reality's blurred " then it lost its charm.
Re: where to go by AskittlesK 2-Mar-04/6:06 PM
Immediately turned off by seein "Purple" and "hazey" together - but I'll keep reading...

hmmm. I like the last two lines - but I still don't know what it was about.
Re: I Remember Thinking by BrandonW 2-Mar-04/6:04 PM
excellent (period, full fucking stop).
Re: Cutters Part II The Recut (Limerick Triplet) by Shardik 2-Mar-04/6:03 PM
"stepped upon a landmina." - okay, thats brilliant.

The rest, gradually less so - but still a -10- if ever I saw one.
Re: Uncle Sam Is Dead by Lenore 2-Mar-04/6:02 PM
Gawd. That's long. I know, you get that alot.
Re: a comment on Early Morning by fevriere 2-Mar-04/5:59 PM
Yeah.. thanks for that...

I like the accentuation of key words with the capitalization, and if you did that on purpose, then I'm fine, too, with the punctuation.

Though I know that some will be put off by it - hey this is not sculpting (despite the similarities); where we can't ignore the laws of physics and invent materials and have them hover over the piece blinking in and out from multiple dimensions - this is poetry. And we can very easily fuck with those "laws".

So, having said that I like the mechanics of it - I'm a bit put off by the first line, and therefore the rational for the rest.

I just don't believe this dumbing-down of god-like sensations to a human level (and this is from a guy who doesn't believe in god).

I think it's fixable by making it a lesser diety (stick an article in there), and maybe by shading the perspective a little (not sure exactly how to do that). I may be the only one bothered by it, dunno - it still could appeal to a broader audience.

extra points for style.



Re: Timmy by richa 2-Mar-04/10:18 AM
sod[s]?

I like the cadence of this very much - for me it's the subtle rhyme with talk/part, which was worth repeating.

But what is it with Tims and holes?

Re: At The Edge of Sleep by GregDeEgg 29-Feb-04/5:38 PM

Re: terraza pizza by daniella 29-Feb-04/5:23 PM
You didn't like the kitten?? What was wrong with the cute kitty?
Re: The Ghost of Sarah Gyllenhall by wilco 29-Feb-04/10:11 AM
works for me.
Re: simply missing by daggatolar 28-Feb-04/4:09 PM
I really like this:

"Who is after me
My own me after me"

lots of originality here.
Re: Little Tounge by Figure 8 28-Feb-04/7:35 AM
rename it with someting to do with fire and you'll almost have something.

or a dragon. and add another stanza.

btw, "mouth" (as you spell it) should be "muthge"

Re: Seven by toker071 28-Feb-04/7:21 AM
