as much as I'd like to blame them on brain injury, they were more of an attempt to repeat the glory of the first. The 2nd and 3rd "less than a sentence" were extremely difficult to settle on, whereas the 1st was a moment of purity. I felt like an 80's one hit wonder band trying to recapture the glory with the other two. my apologies. Also, I apologize for lying about having an accident. It was a bullshit excuse for bad typing skills.

Hope it wasn't something I said. :)

plagued by typos (such as "traped" and "tstay"), it makes it tough to read and detracts from any poetic quality. cut the redundancies and tighten up your language. try some images--similes, metaphors--fresh ones not "daggar of fate" trite stuff. push yourself. don't be afraid.
on "Crying" by Jaketiger 24 Feb 2003, 12:22 PM
blah blah blah I'm sad. try to use a metaphor or two--some fresh language. you almost did it with the needle in the heart, but instead you missed the target, punctured a lung and are making this gurgling sound. try some concise images.
