rasp of gratitude-good stuff !
Well, exactly....Life is so conditional
This stream of consciousness really works here - full of freaks indeed. This works beyond rationality. Spook.
So it is song lyrics? Well funny. I read that, I hear the rhythms, I hear the 'crash,boom,bam', the carnivals and lemonades and Doctors and it all sounds in my head like Tom Waits. It would be interesting to hear you actually sing it to pick up on the Buckley and Cohen slant.
Sorry guys, i don't know why my computer sent that four times....
Bizarrely, I find this quite moving as well as funny.
Oh yes, a witty joke. Except were the fingers rotten as soon as they were severed by the lathe, or rotten beforehand? And how fragile is the earth round your way that it can be broken by a couple of falling digits? Details matter in the haiku form.
Loved it, not sure about the day transpiring though ?
Didn't quite sound right-just nit picking, loved it.
I like this, again your rhythms really give pace to your images and ideas, but I agree about the 'river called emotion' - I don't think you need to spell it out
This is very funny. I know exactly how you feel. We obviously have the same neighbours.
Yes its your hair, its in your eyes so you can't see to write properly
Never mind God - his wife obviously has things sewn up. I like the idea of the birth/death cycle that runs through these - there must be room for Gaia as well?
Since people seem to be "misinterpreting" this haiku, I will explain: The title means "recollection of the dead craftsman". The haiku is about a craftsman who is dead but suddenly remembers that he left the lathe running, so he rises from the dead to turn it off.
The use of the word "pussy" to describe (etc...) it may be absurd, but it fills a gap in the language that no other word easily fills. Being a pussy is not the same as being effeminate or cowardly. Calling someone a dick is equally "valid". About the 'men rant and rave but don't like it when women do it' bit. Where did you get that idea from? Some of the most amusing 'rants' on this site are from 'razorgrin', berating someone's adolescent folly. More to the point, one correct response to a rant is a rant, so I'm not sure why you thought I (or whoever) was 'upset' by responding to your rant with a rant.
And no, the sex organs are not male or female in the same sense that humans are male or female. Otherwise sex organs would have sex organs. Can you imagine the horror?
Now I understand, this makes sense. Need to brush up on my Latin! Still does nothing for me though, sorry.
So misogynist
Would you like to meet the girls ?
Yes means no you creep
the guy didn't ask for any single dutches or blunts...what was he thinking?
i haven't had one since prom night.....
