Please carry on. You’re right in character now.

I almost didn't, then thought I might offend your senibilities with the antiquated Superman or Batman. I try to be polite that way, even while considering all of them on a par. I find nothing collossal about it.

I’m sure you mean the team was desperate, not “were desperate.” And another thing: Saying someone is colossally wrong and a fool over trivial differences among the superheroes is a trait of -=Dark_Angel=-, P.I. that is overused. The team should consider revising such abuse of superlatives because it discredits the times when he says someone is colossally wrong, and the person really is. I remain available for consultation on matters such as this, and more so when spoken to with at least minimal decency. :)

Still a good read. I don't know what you've changed or what a lot of of it means, but it's an Iliad feeling to saunter through it.

How can something be called truly poetic? Is that different trom or better than poetic? This poem has a good theme with a lot of chunky language.

The rules of Haiku are precise, and this is not Haiku. Please call it Free Verse. It sounds like an opening statement in need of support or illustration, and capitalization of "Him." Often, when I comment on a religious poem, people think I am putting down the religion, but in this case I am not, only the way it's presented.

If you’d been paying attention, you would have known that this has already been covered and recovered. Does anyone really not understand the fictitious -=Dark_Angel=-, P.I., his extreme arrogance, the preposterous higher order of human in which he asserts himself as if innately better, his obsession with demeaning the lower classes and instilling what he hopes to be pain? Does anyone not suspect he is the embodiment of thwarted lives seeking betterment through a Superman or Spiderman. Collaborate if you will in producing him. The project might even attract me if the character were not so obnoxious. It’s a fine fantasy you have, but for god’s sake, read the others’ posts. It’s like talking to an Alzheimer’s victim who may or may not remember our last conversation.

,including the other response to my comment, which is the epitome of pretentious self deception.

Is there any wonder that I do not always believe you, even when you say, "you'll just have to take my word for it?" You've changed it some, mostly for the better, but how can I believe when you say, "if you believe . . " referring to half of you flying upward and half downward after you flew through a windshield, and then wrote about it?

I wanted the present tense here to show immediacy - a note being written in the cantina right after reading theirs.

That depends on what you mean by "productive" and "think." Granted, this is a kind of thinking that aims at productivity of an unusual kind.

Thank you. I'm glad you see it that way.

They'd say I'm pathetic and should find moral friends and get over it and besides, I'm a dimtard to even name what he and I did sex.

Call it respect, but I think it was the jitters with a tinge of disgust.

I told you plenty!

I gave you 7 because of the last line, which I take as mockery. Otherwise 5.
on Forsaken Love by Blue Magpie 14 Dec 2004, 4:20 PM
The first three lines introduce a worthy theme, something I wanted to see evolve. But the rest is only music, I'm afraid, good rhythm and rhyme. I enjoy music, but far more when it carries something.

I wish to thank you for causing me to think about this. Please see my recent post.

How can a friend be un-bias (unbiased)?
Do you mean to call her a witch?

Why do I feel no pain over this? Oh yes, it's because my Naturalizer pumps are both comfortable and stylish.
