I love you,
And would brave anything for you.
Except bees.
I'm allergic to bees.

Dig in! --Kirk, Blender Keeper Announce Adam Green, the first artist reviewed by the revamped Digest is working with E-Greetings to produce some very funny and slightly twisted Free E-Valentines - he gets around a penny for each e-postcard sent (but it's free for you) so check it out and support the arts by mailing away!	Front Page Picks I Thought... By Opal. Submitted by Angel [no1angel@surfsouth.com] Angel says "...this was written by my mother when she was only 10 back in 1936." Kirk says this poem is a simply wonderful. dead stroke By jenn (jennzoo@hotmail.com). A clever metaphor wrapped around a strong declaration. Don't Say That By Barbara Halstead. This poem has a frantic energy, made more frantic by its ambiguity. Go Forward By Crystevin. A poem that sould be a song. there she blows By Misti Velvet Rainwater. MVR really sets the mark for realism in romantic poetry. Ritual By z. A prose description of a beautiful habit. New world explorationBy z. A playful, raunchy piece (for j, of course.) This is great. Pavlovian By Isolde. Isolde: "Nobel laureate Ivan Pavlov is noted for his pioneer work in the physiology of the heart and the theory of reflexive behavior." Kirk: "Been here, done this, unfortunately." Dreams vs. Reality By erin. I think this work has more levels than it title would imply. A Long Ago Love By heart Song. Another musical work, and another with a sense of history. Heart Wings By Isolde, illustrated by Deevaa. A bit of synergy and multimedia in the form of a poem and a painting. Be sure to check out some of deevaa's other paintings in Heart on Sleeve Corner Heart on Sleeve Corner All the remaining heartsongs sent to the Blender last month.
