http://mulberryfairy replying on Sagadahoc to Hudson by http://mulberryfairy 11 Aug 2003, 8:42 AM
Thanks for your detailed feedback, I used some of it in my revision. In this poem, the Sagadahoc and the Hudson are rivers, not counties, but I've altered the poem slightly to make it more clear because of your expert truck driver feedback. Man, I would love to be a truck driver for a month or two, think of all of the stories you can tell, and all of the music and books on tape you could catch up on. I had a boyfriend who was a truckdriver years ago, and I appreciated his tales from the front, what an interesting subculture. I can understand your screenname better now, too. Anyway, there is something called a "startle reflex"- it is what makes babies spread both arms suddenly, so it is not that the passengers have startled reflexes, the jolts have aroused their startle reflexes (like when you are sleeping and think you are falling- My startle reflex always goes crazy on bus travel). As far as oral possibilities go, oral is the only kind of sex that would be hindered by a period, don't you think? These two would definitely have all other forms of intercourse in spite of period blood. Thanks for your compliments, too.
I love this poem, because it's actually about you. It's real, not just some opinion or current event analysis. Reading this I recognize why 99.9% of the shit on here is shit, it lacks meaning. Nobody likes to got to the place they're from, or maybe they're just to stupid to know how. Saying that I think you should offer this poem as a stand alone and though I agree with you're editorial it detracts.
You're right it was good. I was expecting something simple so didn't quite follow it the first time. Second read was much better had an understanding of everything that way. Thanks for suggesting and sharing.

Love the Tommy and the use of "What's the deal with that" I Don't know enough about Haikus yet to really comment, but I'm going to learn!

Childish, in every aspect.
I feel the love.

ugh. I love the idea, but it's more a curse/swear at this point. Can you expand it and add a little more poetry? But I do agree, Fuck Bush.
No kidding.

Burp.
Like how you snuck in all the syllables that you couldn't fit in your haiku, into the lengthy title.
Sounds like a counting crows song, which isn't bad, but could use improvement when it is unaccompanied poetry.

I think the dictionary preferred plural of buffalo is buffalo, but acknowledge your poetic right to say buffalos (even though buffaloes is the second place plural form) in order to point out the cowboys' ignorance.
What brand of cereal do you prefer? I was thinking granola to go with the parfait, but correct me if I'm wrong.

Thanks, I did alter it there.
Yes, much improved, a few typos in there, but definitely better. See BabaYaga's comment below though about the love toy, that doesn't work for me. I have a decent (I think) affair poem too, check it out, it is called "8:45am dentist appointment".
I hear you, I have "naked" love toys, but they are battery powered.
