I spy with my little eye, something green & monstorous. Spinning spinning, smoke pouring out of the gear box. Don't worry my sweet potato, there is no precocious star brighter than you.

The best thing I've read in weeks. You remind me of -=Dark_Angel=-, without the pretentious wings.

Wow! What a delicious twist in the ending! With these Fererro Rocher you are really spoiling us!

Violence is for the daft, it's true my meaning should've been drafted new I tried, and failed so on the heap it sailed because I have no craft, like you

Violence is for the daft.
I miss you. Party's End is a direct rip-off, or should I say, was inspired by this fanastic poem. but then I see my "For Monica..." at the end of this piece. The only poem of my mine the tweed-coated Babbitt ever bothered with. Come speak to me. Here I go, begging once again.

I played live from the tub already a year or two ago. You are too late. I don't believe an organ would fit for you though. Perhaps you can play my sax? Michael Jost took me. They do that show in Venice beach, but it's called www.bathtubgirl.com a real fucking skankfest, plus if i recall the acoustics sucked and my guitar string broke or detuned rapidly or some shit like that.

Not believing in absoluteness of sin is an absolute sin.

dark angel sat on his toilet wond'ring "should I barbecue, bake it, or broil it? whichever I do, with this newly shat poo, I mustn't forget to tinfoil it!"
thanks, I was inspired by z's mayan maid... http://poemranker.com/poem-details.jsp?id=43830
Man. Everyones droppin the V's like a seeder on a farm. And I haven't the cojones to try one meself. Ah well, all in due time. Pretty good for a practice run.
INTRANSIT replying on The 11th hour by INTRANSIT 14 Mar 2003, 10:21 AM
Thanks Caducus. I'm actually feeling rather flat lately.
lastobelus replying on Lately by lastobelus 14 Mar 2003, 9:50 AM
It is tied in! Isn't it? Is that too subtle!? It's intended as the whole snarkiness of the poem, thumbing my nose at the existentialism I can't escape. I'd like to tighten up the language but I don't know how because I'm a lousy amateur and this is already me stretching about as far as I'm able to reach. Any suggestions? I thank you for the comments.
Caducus on a poet in the city by Bill Z Bub 14 Mar 2003, 9:42 AM
You and Intransit are similar in style, just thought i'd mention it before i run like a gibbon and shout red nose day.

Thank you! The parenthetical comment has always bugged me, but I can't bring myself to take it out. The "some kind of" is there purely for slamming, you read it with a silent beat before "some", lean into the mike, and kick the line into the audience's teeth.
Caducus on a poet in the city by Bill Z Bub 14 Mar 2003, 9:41 AM
Stanza 3 is hilarious my pants i have truly pissed. This is a real feelgood poem for the reader, an indulgence of humour and damn fine poetry. ( that gods wife gets about in tributes dont she) =============10
lastobelus replying on Paranoia by lastobelus 14 Mar 2003, 9:26 AM
cummings was my first poet, first literary love. Still shows up in my Regurgitationalism from time to time. Paranoia's easy for me to capture, since I have it.
Robert K Foster on Paranoia by lastobelus 14 Mar 2003, 9:22 AM
reminded me of some of the DaDa poetry--I like the egg in the hair reference. You've captured paranoia here.
