Excellent. bloody excellent.

know whatcha mean .... us poets eh ? how special we are ! ... 4

and you are truly something....... Now the doggy door!

i demand to know why this tripe isn't on the worst list? it meets all of the requirements and it has a score 0f 2.99 must it also make inanimate objects speak? must it fell another virgin forest? how long must the young woman of this beautiful planet go without revenge? vote for death by queero! vote zero. <brought to you by 'tireless' why travel on rubber? when you can go tireless, and 'rash guard' why go out with a rash? when you can just work for one?

probably the best thing of yours yet for me. yet i am hardly worth a pissed cursive name in a snowbank. 8/10.

lol! more dark angel tom-foolery, or perhaps you left your cupboard door open then stood up to fast? the lord jesu has saved you. save yourself. run. duck. mormon's have drowned more children than john the babtist care for some water?

pragmatic fingernails an interesting phrase but should only be used once ,or if intentionally reversed closer together ... paints a picture of death .... is that right ? .. 4

Yes! This is it! This is the most profound, beautiful, profound comment on America's society today that I have ever seen! How did you think of it, pink_punk_kisses87? It's such a through-and-through masterpiece that I hardly know where to begin... The title itself is sheer genius. Just imagine -- taking a popular catchphrase, "America the beautiful", and putting a question mark at the end!!! What better way to simultaneously subvert the reader's expectations and set the introspective, questioning tone for the rest of the piece?? Brilliant! Now, before I continue, let me tell you that usually I have no sympathy for poemes that deal with "issues". But you have managed to capture the essence of suffering and needless brutality in a way that I had scarcely dreamt of! All the images -- so cliched, yet in your incredible hands, so fresh! A beaten woman - a hungry child - drugs - bereavement - depression - lost love. These, yes, these are the issues of the times. Oh wait, sorry. For a minute there I thought your poeme was good.

restless , or calm ? flows nice ... likewise images .. 5

I would choose the cheeseburger. if you had a cheerleader she would make you give her your cheeseburger. then you wouldn't have any fucking cheeseburgers.

Oh my dear sweet brother how i've missed you. Of all the God's you are my favorite. You don't pretend. I'm off for the weekend. Hope to see you soon.

you had me worried for a minute there, b. i thought maybe p&k's fever had been cyber-contracted... very nice finish. chairs. z

is the f-ing walk shovelled yet? of course it's not. why would it be? balthazar, how many times have i told you to lose those 3 creeps that are always hanging around, and get some real writing done? and go make me a goddam sammich!

Could be a real gem if you polished it. The last stanza i think is the best and could stay as is. Can you describe the smell of her pillow?

I think I saw Gloria Swanson act out this poem in a silent movie once. Sheer and unadulterated melodrama. Not just bad but super-bad.

Genius. Now the window.

quite qute quomment on us way of life ... 4

oh great now my gums are bleeding 8/10/
