EXCELLENT. and you even called it the right name!

cute. Yeah, I think it would be fine without the first 3 lines.

It doesn't need the Usama hook, really.

Good use of the form. Think it could mean alot of things other that van gogh (even lots of painters) - and that takes away from it a little.

take the second half of the second verse and put the rest back into the word-pile.

And the last line could work too - just the idea of it; toasting bodyparts.

could make a memorable song - but not another suicide note.

its like they have their own little mind, isn't it.

Reads fairly well - not entirely sure what it's about though. Feels like a venting somehow.

I like this idea of pouncing on something then the pouncer suffocating.

There once was a woman from Taigan
Who drew one hell of a floorplan
She met a man by shore
Though she found him a bore
He paid her again and again.

Ahah! I know what it is! it is a "riddle". Or it could also be a pen.

This would be better for a verb tense sweep.

"Often I sit alone and wondered"

"What does he has that Dad didn't?"

stuff like that.

Many shades of red - so many.

Regardless - very well said.

Well IT, I like very much the use of cycloptic with the train - that feels fresh. But the billowing black smoke hasta be left at the station (get it! I make JOKE).

And not sure about click clacking cackophonic... doesn't seem to quite fit in this form.

Have a supremdreamer blessing of eight (at least until you quit blowing smoke).

Wow. This one is getting lots of traffic, isn't it? Never a bad thing.

I'd like to see this expanded; fleshed out a bit - and it will be better for it.

nice word caryatids.

I like this - I think it would be better for the killing of some of the small words (the conjuctions and little preps - but I often say this).

I like haggard/swaggered and the pun with drug and undertow.
on fire has its own logic by impert&ent 11 Jun 2004, 4:53 PM
"interiority of computers" - interesting.

Some fresh ideas here, but the form is hurting it imho; got me thinking on it.

The nuance of the spanish is lost on me, but I do like the sentiment (and I know you've spent a fair amount of time tweeking it - no, that's not a euphamism :).

"do like [we do]"

the verb "to be" is a bit overdone here, R.
