Makes me want to stand up in a room full of poets and say, "Hi. My name is Dan. I'm a poem-holic."

My wife just gave me an early birthday gift. A 1907 publishing of: Tennyson- Day by Day. I would suggest leaving "group" and indulging until your mind is bulging. I'm gong to slap myself now.

No amount of nonsensical smut -filled commenting could ever bring this poem down.

As always, razor sharp and clean. Amazing what stress does for the inspiration eh?

I'm compiling a list of things nentwined was probably doing with -=Dark_Angel=-,P.I.'s $1 instead of server maintenance during the week poemranker was down. Freely contribute.

How delightfully topical!

I can't get you. Either I am intellectually challenged or this is crap. I rust your abilities, so I settle for the former conclusion. Do check me out. A 5 as a benefit of doubt!!

I liked this poem so much I made it one of my favorites.

Did you change your mind, or did you mean a bookmark? ((as opposed to the poemranker's "favorites" functionality))

Just checking. ;)

Thanks. :)

You've managed to create one of those sayings like twain or wilde and done so in the limits of a haiku so brrrravo its def one of the best on here.

I like it. We need a senryu categoty.
[n/a] nentwined › Adriaan 15-Feb-06/9:39 AM Reply
I'm down with that. Give me a couple of links for examples and definitions, and I'll make it happen.

Done, though I think chances of anyone actually following the difference here are slim to none. :)

Maybe I will try, though.

It's been a long time since I wrote.

Thanks for getting Senryu set up as a category. It makes my inner pedant happy!

Here's a haiku:

Jerk steals user names
calling people gay alot-
Leaves fuck you comments.
[n/a] Stephen Robins › ALChemy 16-Feb-06/6:15 AM Reply
You colossal cunt. "stealing usernames?"

[n/a] ALChemy › Stephen Robins 16-Feb-06/6:53 AM Reply
Well, we've got our suspect.
[n/a] ALChemy › Stephen Robins 16-Feb-06/7:03 AM Reply
If your not that guy who's been logging in with mock names like "zodlac" then you have real bad timing or you are apparently a big fan of him.
[n/a] Stephen Robins › ALChemy 16-Feb-06/7:16 AM Reply
Your powers of deduction are astoundingly inaccurate.

I am clearly not the "guy" who has been logging in with fake usernames. Check user by IPS for confirmation; you will find I have two Stephen Robins and fuzzylogicisatwat.

I am in no way a fan of Zodiac or any of his aliases. He writes appallingly damp poemes about tender issues which have no place being thought about by a man.

Fraser Allonby, the real culprit, is a massive fat man who blunders around like somekind of pederast's stiffy at morning break, leaving colossal signs of his bad breeding and horrendous usage of the nomanitive accusative to impart his appalling ill-thought out verse. Read "Junior Trees" if you would like confirmation.
[n/a] ALChemy › Stephen Robins 16-Feb-06/9:33 AM Reply
Yes, I did some more research and that's why I put the second comment in. It's the gay poem that threw me off at first. Why post it? Why not a Fraser Allonby is a pederast poem? That would have been ten times better. I didn't mean you're a fan of zodiac I meant zodlac one of Frasers stupid alter egos. Obviously you're not a fan of Fraser either. Sorry for jumping to conclusions but this whole gay poem trend is getting old as hell and I was getting a little sick of it.

I liked this a lot!

Could see an easy progression type poem-
next stanza: Benefiting two..
