i enjoyed this more than anything i have read here in months. thank you.

only one line interfered with my pleasure:

"That it's them sing (not me),"

i thing should be reanimated to:

It's them that sing, (not me),

replying on My Chocolate F-9 by abecedarian 22 Oct 2003, 11:37 AM
what about the varnish? talk about the pines that gave it, and how patient they were to give their blood for the sharpened D of eternity.

maybe you drink a chocolate colored guiness (or 2) while you wait for the chocolate varnish to dry.

the last quatrain--just scrap it, and go from there.

why do we run out of steam like that, i wonder?

i was not disagreeing with you about your critique of the poem.

i was merely noting that you were cranky tonight,.

even out here in the sticks, we know about john bly and his 'masterpiece'. i did not HAVE to post that page. i agree with you that the poem needs a little more framing. but i believe it captures the joy the guy was feeling. i was not arguing taht point; i was merely observing that you are, once again, cranky. you may not feel cranky, but it comes across that way in print. cranker. that point stands.

jeez you are cranky tonight. are you sure you're not holed up in a john?????
