hoad up yo. is it a dinosaur, or an insect? cause weren't dinosaurs notoriously ornithopods?

I suppose we need a proper form to let our past turn into nostalgia. I guess this rates up there with trying to sell T-shirts with a Tide box on it. Go figure.

the sad thing is you'll never have a poem on the worst list. you're too good. and tall and stuff.w

I suppose not, although my most well loved poem has some 25 zeros, which would qualify for the worst. And I am more than a foot taller than your friend (sis), but that would barely make me a point guard in a pick up game.

but when were living half underwater, I'll use up less air than you.

I live 5280 feet above sea level. I do not have to worry about living underwater at this point.

I can hold my breath for 2 minutes. I can make an 80 last an hour and a half at 2atms.

Why hold your breath. Just give in. Don't fear the reaper. I have no idea what you mean by the second comment. Did they spike the refreshments at the boy's sing-a-ling?

80cc's of air at between 33 and 66 ft. of salt water. I hold my breath because i'm a romantic; always expecting some happy ending. We had champagne and cake to celebrate. The flutes played Tchaikovsky's dance.

I am an idealist, thus I would just let the water love me. Celebrate what? The Nutcracker? Was he Little Clara?

It is practice for you soap opera career. How important. They will soon pour cement in you honor.
[n/a] Bachus › poetandknowit 12-Dec-02/2:09 AM Reply
actually, it's oingo boingo in my headphones, there are no re-runs in soap operas..

You think you deserve a trust fund just because you want one. Sure you talk the talk when you need to. I fear the whole world is sarting to believe you, don't forget I'm on your side. Be glad I'm on your side. I guess on nights like this you know who your friends are. I'm going to bed. Stop trying so hard. You're the best there is.

a trust fund at this point? impossible. i'm no blue blood, but i could hoarde a bunch of cash together for the duration of my life thean create a trust fund for others..you know deformed children, deaf guatamaleans andblind ethiopians the usuall..you know build a park a library..the usual jive. i am negative by the way. YAY!n

Did you change the title or am I drunk. Now it makes even less sense. Was that the point?
[n/a] Bachus › poetandknowit 11-Dec-02/10:36 PM Reply
i changed the innard workings and the title of the poem to be more universal instead of all about my scrocking stuffels.g

Transformer Smurf ? just a disturbing idea
[n/a] Bachus › Caducus 13-Dec-02/3:02 PM Reply
interesting...what might he turn into? a faiery mound or a clear running brook. yes, disturbing indeed.

this poem is my new jesus. the transformers totally ROCKED! The 80's ones, not the new stuff.10!
[n/a] Bachus › razorgrin 13-Dec-02/3:05 PM Reply
i agree...i liked the decepticons so much cooler of a name than the autobots, also the cartoons theme song, harder to quit hummimg than the a-teams, or the smurfs..i hate good jingles, they're like herpes...relentless.

nice toy theme, an excellent sense of playfulness

Thanks, I also wanted it to metaphorically bridge the evolution of inventions, war, and biology with toys.
