Tyre is the british variant of tire; they're the same word, but thanks.

Brilliant *10*

Thanx Hyp. to-get-her is how you remember to spell together of course B^) A mild oddity that I needed to express.

D.A, I am so pleased by your sensibility and understanding, it's stupifying. The fact that this line has created so much controversy because some people are too narrow minded to realize that the answer is not tangible, is what poetry is really about. Weeding out the fish-eyed ignorance is key.

So Z, what is your definition of *statue of apprehension*?
replying on Love, Fair by MacFrantic 27 Apr 2004, 11:47 AM
!First off, *statue of apprehension* means *unmoving object filled with fearful anticipation*, not *understanding*, or *capture* as apprehension is also the definition of these things! Secondly, without getting ahead of myself, you must understand that I am referring to the sleeping beauty as a symbol, NOT as a half-assed gimmick brought on by the Disney corporation or, as you have come to know her, a shallow caricature of a deeper Grimm's Fairytale character. If I had said *This is an ode to the beauty which will never be rescued* would the critics maybe read it over again instead of spending their time with their heads up their asses. Or would that be asking too much of the people?
By the way, YES Capulet is Juliet's last name. *Damn

An ode to the sleeping beauty, per se.

"Furtive" alone makes this poem fly. I'm impressed by your ability to capture the moment. *8*
on Left the key in dream den's door by capachijim 21 Apr 2004, 11:42 AM
I would have liked to see the first line of the third stanza follow you other lines, and "totally" is a pretty weak word . I DO like the originality of "dream den's door", maybe it's the alliteration.
on The break-up by petite_brunette 21 Apr 2004, 11:38 AM
Really a poem true to the poet. I do believe that ellipses would have served the purpse better than colons, but all in all a solid testimony. *9*
on Taupe is an Angry Mob by MacFrantic 21 Apr 2004, 7:32 AM
It IS about the title. Grey is often associated with anonymity. That is essentially what a mob is, right?

Vote again after I change it please! Great feedback!
on Sport by MacFrantic 19 Apr 2004, 7:16 PM
It is a simple metaphor for sport in general people!
This not about dogs, but the essence of sport.
Sports turns men into animals, for what? People will kill for the gold and no one really remembers who died for what.
I only changed the s's that have the "z" sound.
on Aesgntor by MacFrantic 11 Mar 2004, 7:45 PM
Thanx Shuushin.
Step x step the story goes:
1.Evil Kingdom of Aesgntor (Aze-in-tor) has been hidden for years.
2. Young boy steals the firesword and escapes.
3. The guardian demons give chase.
Intermission :)
4. The sword hampers boy's escape.
5. The demons catch hero.
6. Boy kills all but one in pursuit.
7. Last demon survives; kills boy but recieves fatal wounds from sword.
8. Demon heads back toward Aesgntor.
9. He dies and falls into the murky ocean.
10. The sword falls as well and becomes extinguished...
11. ...or does it?

Thanx for criticism on grammar!
Not bad for a sophomore, huh?
