Volumetric efficiency. Now, why is it not part of a book? Grappling with not becoming what you despise most I assume. Grapple on.

Ever had a stricture? Annoying they are. The cure is quite embarrasing. It gives you first hand experience of a menstrual cycle. minus the cramps.

Rarely. I don't often read what you write. This was worth the side trip. I'll swing by again sometime.

Sorry there, god-o-rock. This tied my shoes together.

I am quite utterly in shock! What was that? You people are whacked!!!

Hey, I know I joke around a bit, but I've decided to try and write a serious poem for once. I'm quite pleased with the result. I hope you will enjoy it too.

This poem was so sombre and chilling that I almost committed suicided. It's not really your fault; I just get like that sometimes (especially when I have been listening to my Type-O-Negative CDs). Anyway, Then I read the last line and it cheered me up no end.

Your life must be a living hell. Thank you for sharing that with us through your poetry. -10-

Hopefully the person/persons you wrote this about will be casually browsing through poemranker, and when they read it they will realise just how wrong their lifestyle has been all these years. Then maybe, just maybe, they will change their ways for good, possibly to those more accurately mirroring your own.

I really hate it when you get a shopping trolley with a broken wheel!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The other day I was just beginning this dream where me and the mebers of ZZ Top were in a train carriage, and we were on our way to solve a mystery of some sort. Then, just as I was thinking this was shaping up to be a really fantastic dream, my alarm went off. I tried to go back to sleep in order to complete the dream, but it didn't work.

I guess we all need a special place like that!!!

God would never swear you idiot.

Very nicely done.

You must really care about this poem. I've seen it at least four times in different incarnations. This is the best edit yet, I believe. Clear and more powerful (a subtle inevitable kind of power) in the end than I remember the original to be. (But I wish people would leave old comments. I think the history of a poem is sometimes as interesting as the poem itself).

Britain is the Greece to America's Rome.

How many times are you going to re-write this poem? You don't even keep the comments (the number of comments being the true measure of an excellent poem).

Have you ever played "Monkey Island 2"? Captain Dread is the epitomy of all things Jamaican. "You can't go there, that's the forbidden dodecahedron", etc. -10-

You are my favourite slut bunny.

I don't understand this at all, so I will therefore give it a -10- in case I appear a nincompoop.
