Don-Quixote on A Fractured Egg Shell by newdawnfades 19 Sep 2003, 8:05 AM
HUMPTY DUMPTY JUMPED OFF THE EMPIRE STATE BUILDING scrambled eggs for breakfast, shell fragments saved to be used as toothpicks.
Don-Quixote replying on Unemployment Lining by Jeremi B. Handrinos 19 Sep 2003, 7:55 AM
I think he built his house with crucifixs and golden twine. (if you look carefully, one of the crucifixs has a mexican hobo freshly nailed to it, some sort of ritual or something, i forget.)
I expect you fashioned all of your own belongings from a collection of sticks and wheat.
Don-Quixote on Emotion Expression by Hostileintent 19 Sep 2003, 7:41 AM
open up.. or shrivel inwards, become dry and cracked: a mummy waiting to turn to dust. my mother had the same kind of problem.. unable to express emotion. The woman never looked happy (unless it was a dinner party, she was an A+ actor.. not many had a fucking clue) blessed with eight.

Before I read your poem, I thought war was quite a good idea, but now I'm really against it.
Don-Quixote on Boys with Guns by Hostileintent 19 Sep 2003, 7:36 AM
I have heard of, and have seen such a picture.. not pleasant. the repetition makes it seem like your starting to stammer, as if gripped by anxiety or nervouseness.. at first i thought it out of place, but then you mentioned that you lived in such a place, and it made sense.. was that the purpose? or was it simply done to give more force to emotion? (im all curiouse this morning) overall, 8

?-Dave_Mysterious-? on Boys with Guns by Hostileintent 19 Sep 2003, 7:14 AM
No. Where can I find such pictures?

I assure you I am not -=Dark_Angel=-, though I have collaborated with him on "A Haiku Haiku". -=Dark_Angel=- is about 4'10" with a peg-leg and a tic. I have none of these predicates and therefore cannot be him. As for the charatcer traits of other poets, these are easily estimated from the knowledge that they like poetry.
Don-Quixote replying on Wit and Eloquence by Lifeboatman 19 Sep 2003, 3:01 AM
well.. when did this vendetta start? * i see two reasonably intelligent poets "text fighting" via the internet.. how about you two meet up, i come by with a camcorder, and everyone will be able to see you two beat eachother into bloody slushies in full vivid animation and color! it looks like one of those common bickering sessions i have with darkie.. cept.. somehow more idiotic. -shrug- [note: keep a look out for more fights, this shit is amusing.. sure fills the late hours of my life with entertainment.]
Excellent. Without a doubt, ?-Dave_Mysterious-? is very amusing. My confusion arises from the fact that our Dave does not have the air of a newbie. He seems very sure of himself, and acts as though he knows the character traits of the existing users. Either he has been observing quietly from the sidelines for a long time, or he is an existing member with a new username. Certain similarities with -=Dark_Angel=- but no clear indication that they are one and the same person. Besides which, they have very different obsessions.
Geschäftsreise replying on The Same by newdawnfades 19 Sep 2003, 1:04 AM
Are you interested in a discussion on this? I'm fairly confident that I could convince you that this combination idea (while figuratively attractive) is not literally true.

I don't hate all rhyming poetry.. here's proof. this poem. His Cobalt blue sigh bid me not cry.

suck them vigorously right out of their shells. What's a week on the brink? What's tea time without chiarscurro Elvis peeping at you from over your plate.
