If you say to me that you love I to me that it is not the truth. When you say to me that you hate I to me that you have found your heart. If you cry when you sing I to me that it is not the truth. If (ay olvideras) time me but no longer (ay) long time. We looked for the way to live by the day and if we were, it is in error. Everything that step, us (olvidera), and, I that it is not the truth.

I have no spanish. :)

I'll check out some sleep and a meal. Do they rent those? :)

actually, nothing was showing up in "recent" unless you edited the piece -- a side effect of my "plagiarism" patch. That has since been fixed.
yeehaw =)

I wouldn't say *that* per se. :)

It's a fine line, in my opinion. I left others he did. Seriously, I recommend you read the original, and then change half of the last line and see if it looks like anything but a small penis pasted on in the bottom right corner of a large poster. "not greater than the sum of its parts"

I have to admit you know your stuff. =)

It really is pretty well done in a "I'm going to be as difficult as possible with the least amount of effort" sort of way. really annoying. I'm going with Negativland's idea of "Fair Use" here, unless someone wants to break out lawyers. (http://www.negativland.com/fairuse.html)
This actually has (in my mind) significantly different meaning that the original. I don't approve given the context of what you've already copied and how you've copied it, but I think this is valid. [yeah, like you fucking care, right?]

I'm going to have to say that just changing "into the ocean" to "sucking cock" is not enough.

six poems and one user with the word "tug". not *that* obsessed.

I don't really feel the "poem" nature of it, I suppose -- there's nothing that breaks naturally into a cadence or rhythm. I think it makes excellent short fiction, though.

sorry, this was the only one supposed to be flagged... got a boolean backwards on the display. :)
on Gone Away by Christof 18 Sep 2002, 3:55 AM
very nice. :)

It warms my heart that you've found poemranker to be helpful. :) I really should make the "editing" system a little more of a system, though. versioning or something. bleah.

a sad/sweet sentiment. I couldn't get into the reading of it, however.
on dps 2 - new ver. by decadentlaurel 16 Sep 2002, 11:24 PM
I've grown fond of version one; this one doesn't appeal to me so much.

I don't understand how "i to look away again" fits in. I don't know what exactly you've changed, but my only stumbling block at the moment is "i to look away again"
I don't understand the "shape" of this poem. A slide? A method of distancing?

Ignoring the shape, I like the simplicity of statement. The rhythm is really strange, but it works.

and now I'm curious what it was called before you retitled it, with all this discussion...
