I want to assure you I meant that in a completely humble, non-arrogant way. Take every comment I make with a grain of salt, because I am highly uneducated.
My post-secondary education consisted of Art school. As for the English language and grammar, and literature and poetic devices and meter and such, I am mostly self taught.
Oops, I just blew my cover! The gig is up! You'll never take me alive, copper! Nyaaah!

The only critique I have for your writing is the dearth of concrete imagery. Something to bite into, the juice streaming out in molten arcs.

slightly abstract, but the poets will get it
This one's worth a quarter for certain. And I'm a cheap bastard. What the hell, here's a ten.

Great stuff, man. That's about the extent of my music criticism abilities.

I played bass guitar in a band in high school. The band had one gig, then broke up. They all wanted to play crappy cover tunes.
Thanks for the movie recommendations. Doubt my local video store carries them, but ya never know.

So, hows "sharkmouth" coming?
Heh.

Thanks for the critique. I've revised this piece several times since this draft, but since it's in the top twenty, I don't want to wipe out all the votes.

the story of an altarboy who wore white too long. Then one day he got gangrene and his toes rotted off, each little piggy one by one falling and collected in a basket that he keeps in the back of a cupboard. Just don't let the earwigs in. They have a knack for pinching what little memory is left.

Hmm, I see you've been around a while. But I don't think I've read any poems of yours before today. Oh here's a Ten --> 10.
I saw an amazing movie last night.: "Frida". Ah, Salma baby, I don't know wether to salute or cry. Or both.

Hey do you ever stop writing? Didn't think so. Is okay if I tape this to my bathroom mirror and repeat it to myself every morning?

Green teeth. Exquisite.
I raise my coffee cup to you, sir. Salut!
This is what happens when I'm away from this site for a month.

nice minimalist piece ** I've been away far too long ** and anarchy has descended on rancid mustard wings **
also, I'm getting published ** hooray, I am semi-semi-professional **

replying on sharkmouth by Bill Z Bub 9 Jun 2003, 11:32 AM
That'd be awesome.
