If current trends in abortion continue, do you think there will come a day when all the aborted foeti come back to bite us? Also, do you think that every time we abort something, we are also aborting a bit of ourselves?

Always raising the bar, indeed. If you ever failed me in that, I wouldn't drive constantly onwards for the next twilight horizon-- it wouldn't be as fun or freakish otherwise. The book stanza was the best I think.. reminds me of the condition of my photo album.

Death and rebirth, along with mental abnormality rewired for sexual geniality. It worked.. better than expected.. but still, procastination did no good luke, and the force definately wasn't working. Yet, somewhere along the road of retarded fantasy the grim cancer had had enough deranged psychological-chemo and opted for recession. [imploded nuetron star creating its own oblivion.] Yes, another yappy mood tonight... can't shut up much these days, been a good long time where I've had little to rant about or manifest some story.

And yes, I'm bumbling round like a drunken red-faced clown.

Why not be straight forward and blatantly rude, I just don't care for the sarcastic but subtle taunt. I only bothered to mention her spelling and grammar to be helpful instead of saying nothing and letting her continue making those mistakes. I made no claim to having perfect grammar or spelling, and from what I've seen in the ol' historic commentaries, your not exactly the man to be avenging the downtrodden poets of poemranker. Embarrass and mock me to your hearts content though, my friend, I had genuinely missed the beatings of old.
But childishly satisfying, for me.

I look into his eyes and I'm tossed and bound I bury my face into her breast and want to masterbate and live forever I kiss her lips and pull away just so I can suck ass again.
Duly noted. It's all good sonny boy.
Ah, atleast you've made it clear that I've neglected to keep my quill point sharp and adept at forming verse.
Really? I seem to have been oblivious to my popularity. Had thought that I'm mostly ignored in general except for the occasional flare of frenzied chatter, like the racial debate not too long ago.. Now I'm confused and feeling more pompous Prose, verbose, self-regarding, yes, I won't dispute that-- but again that was how my thoughts flowed, there was no intention of expressing detail or conveying my "insanity" in any fluid or linear pattern, lyrical or convincing. I feel like a queer cafe-court lawyer with this talk of being convincing. You offer little beyond that to correct or improve, not that I feel that you are somehow obligated to extend any such aid, but I am compelled to ask... an anal inclination, mostly.
You ask as if I had a reason or purpose in mind for skewing the rhyme scheme. It just sort of came out that way in my head really, plus I was not aware that some sort of "formal" point had been expected or assumed by default... It jars, yes, thats pretty clear- any suggestions on where to begin straightening its spine?

Just a grammatical pun - thought it rolled of the tongue quite well.My Grandma's name was Hazel - she was my childhood god. She loved me so much but I kind of drifted from her.She died before I could tell her how much I cared about her.I did'nt lose her - she lost me when I ran away.All my fault....that's why I'm sorry.

Envy is the wrong word for what feel when I see religious people comforted through their religion. Envy implies ill will because of another’s advantage. I wish to have their comfort, but know that because of my reservations I cannot. Among my misgivings is the fear of hope such as an ostrich has when its head is in the sand. (Actually, I don’t think ostriches do that.) People want to believe — to hold a position on something. It does not have to make sense. Discrepancies are expunged for them by faith. So religion provides substance for their faith, and in so doing, it gives its parishioners psychological advantage in the storms of life. Your argument for applying real solutions through research and philanthropic funding (instead of spending money on cathedrals and such) makes sense. But people have always looked to gods and probably always will. There’s advantage for them; we might as well acknowledge it.

Thought of back when and salt blue ocean....very nice.
What is wrong with you?Was this an ode to yourself? Either way it really - truly sucks!Are you a confused 13 year old who's been molested by a gang of Eagle Scouts?Try something besides poetry for your venting. Considering this ranting poem,I believe your the mayor of Dimsville!

I thought lobotmised people just wobbled around the place feeling happy. Some people think comfort is just the lack of grief, so they would disagree with the idea that lobotomised people feel no comfort. Anyway, my point was that I don't envy religious people, even if I feel grief, because, like you, I don't share their faith, and it seems silly to envy someone who is comforted by a belief that you think is cobblers. If you were an antelope fleeing from a hungry lion, would you envy a passing ostrich who had stuck its head in the sand? Of course the ostrich may not be as terrified as you, and you're right to envy the state of not being terrified, but to envy the ostrich itself is folly indeed! Praying to Vishnu to heal your wife's buttock cancer may make you think she'll be alright, but it isn't going to do anything about the buttock. You might think religion has done good by giving such people hope, but it is that very aspect of it which can prevent people from trying to find actual solutions to their problems. Rather than relying on Vishnu to heal the buttock cancers of this world, why not spend millions of dollars on research into this terrible, and debilitating disease?

I read it again that way and it makes a lot of sense, even the Yoda voice. I raised it to 9.
