on Dolly was a damn fine lamb by <{Baba^Yaga}> 7 Mar 2003, 7:51 AM
I think she looks good for her age.
(actuially i like this poem)
this really dosn't say anything.

could be stronger and more precise...
on Grampa's Proverb by OneFingerAnswer 7 Mar 2003, 7:41 AM
"a" rather than "his" perhaps?
on some deleted poem 7 Mar 2003, 7:47 AM
OK
on Over Wait by flatliner 21 May 2003, 10:34 AM
"too easy to drift". true. it's too hard to pay attention when something doesn't say anything at all, rambling ambiguity rambilng redundantly in nothingness but repetition. Yeehaa maw. chicken feet.

I agree. the third is the best
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.
on Lately by lastobelus 14 Mar 2003, 9:16 AM
I believe that you could tie in the crumbling of crackers with the sand sifting.... just a thought. Other than that, I would suggest that you tighten tha language a little bit...Powerful images and overall well done. 8
on van Gogh's Irises by lastobelus 14 Mar 2003, 9:19 AM
2nd line (in parentheses) is redundant with the title.
also, I suggest cutting "Some kind of" to strengthen the image of forgotten flags--and then ask yourself if the last two lines are truly needed for the meaning of the poem...
a valiant effort...you have a good grasp on imagery and "fresh" language.
on Love spank by Shardik 7 Mar 2003, 10:13 AM
know? you mean "no", i am certain.
on who? by Crakyamuni 7 Mar 2003, 10:12 AM
hrmmmm... syllables, OK... content - iffy, not very funny, really kind of mediocre.
on Loud Taps by celiff 7 Mar 2003, 7:52 AM
how kindergarten like. I bet kids would love this--nice rhythm and simplicity... bad title, though.
on Aries, the God of war by Shardik 7 Mar 2003, 7:50 AM
Hoving?

No entry found for hoving.

4 suggestions found:

loving

moving

roving

homing

shoving?

you've masked the meaning too much, i think.
on some deleted poem 7 Mar 2003, 7:53 AM
martinis?
parhaps you've had a few because your meaning is muddled and now i'm befuddled.
I didn't read it--but it is not a haiku.
on The Stand... an off rip by horus8 7 Mar 2003, 7:46 AM
much shorter than the original book. They could've saved a lot of paper.

I see a pattern here - thematically and form wise.
I'm also curious as to how so many of yours keep coming up--it would explain how your numbers got so high.
on The unlucky Janitor haikus by Bachus 7 Mar 2003, 10:15 AM
different.
on No more tears, or trail by Bachus 7 Mar 2003, 10:16 AM
not as good as it could be. this format may be too limiting to what you are trying to say.
