on some deleted poem

You're right.
one of the best things on this site. 11.
Can I get back to you in a minute, I'm trying to understand what's going on with dark angel. I don't want to ignore you
why are you so angry? Tell me what it is you want. Short statements please so i can understand. I'm not the least bit angry with you.
god'swife: yes, negative personal comments are sometimes made. Why are you telling it on the mountain all of a sudden? I know that if I had just joined this site I would prefer to form my own opinion of people instead of having one fed to me.
bacAss: Maybe if you drink some more alchohol, take some more drugs, suck some more old has-been Hollywood rich man's cock, you'd be in a better mood. Or maybe you should abuse your girlfriend in front of your son some more. Hoof's to you, you sod.
Jim Steinman is the genius behind Meat Loaf he wrote all the songs on 'Bat Out Of Hell' and 'Dead Ringer' and also another album which he recorded himself called 'Bad For Good'. If you check out the song 'You Took The Words Right Out Of My Mouth' on BOOH you will find a prelogue that talks about offering your throat to the wolf of the red roses etc.
I think I suffer from wouldn't the world be a better place if everyone wrote like me syndrome. This poem for example, I know what your talking about but I crave the details. I want metaphors, like, niave as turnips,in my poem. Your angel sleeps like......what? I know you could come up with something lovely. The emotions are there but I want more substance.
o'k' I think i was able to gleen at least one request, you would like me to stop warning people that their character is going to be assasinated. But the truth is some people not,you in particular, do make negative personal comments.
Why do I think you were talking about me? Oh, no reason in particular. Just that the archetype you describe up there happens to be quite close to what you were making me out to be the other day. How arrogant of me to think I was still the target of your righteous indignance.
Not bad. Why 182? This number for some reason keeps coming up.Are you referring to Blink 182 or maybe Kurt 182 or something else.Please satisfy my curiousity.
dealwithit: Sorry if this is an inappropriate place to reply to god'swife's (undoubtedly appropriate) comment. I have nothing to say about your poetry that won't be triumphantly leapt on by the soi-disant champion of justice here. So, god'swife. "They're on a crusade..." No. I'm not sure why I have to tell you again, but I'm not on any sort of "crusade", especially of the sort you seem to think. "Don't take it personally, although they will." No. I really don't. Do you? After all, you seem still pissed off after the little tiff we had the other day. Haven't you finished? Didn't you get all the nanny bullshit off your chest when you told me off for saying "pussy"? Do you really have to take it on yourself to go around "warning" people of some mythical "danger"? I won't speculate on why you're doing this even though it's neither your duty nor your business to tell 'newcomers' about your outline for righteous and heinous activities on poemranker, or your profiles of the alleged perpetrators thereof. However, I can't help but wonder what sort of motivation you have if you won't even pin down what I'm supposed to have done. You haven't mentioned any actual things I've said; you've simply made unfounded assertions about my motivation, my mission, what I take personally, what I will do in the future, etc, etc. Is this the way to solve whatever problem you have with my behaviour? No. Of course it isn't. So instead of complaining about it like the overcompensating bully-victim I'm starting to picture you as, do something about it and tell ME about the ACTUAL THINGS I'VE SAID that you have a problem with. Until that happens, you have no basis for saying any of the things you've said on the subject. Of course, I'd prefer it if you just shut up about the whole thing, but since we both know that isn't going to happen, at least meet me halfway. OK? Be consistent with your claim that this is a forum for poetry criticism and not character assassination.
Yeah, that'll get him! All he wanted to hear was that he was right! Go god'swife! Are you really that simple-minded? Do you really think I am that simple-minded? Are you expecting someone to say 'touche' (which they no doubt will, now)?
p.s. I wasn't complaining about you. Never once did i mention you. I hold no grudge.
Yeah this was not really a good one to post as it was based on a specific event in my life and the parts that are obvious to me are probably not to others. It was an attempt at irony as the 'angel' concerned worked in an office called 'comparisons'. But don't hold back be brutal if you must I don't look for tit for tat praise.
Who's Jim Steinam? Teach me teach me.
Even if I understood the reference to me I wouldn't comment.
Yeah like this one too. (what happened to the others).Like the hurting 'good' made me think of another songwriter, John Cougar, I think has one called 'Hurts So Good'.
