ellipses...they are called ellipses...the dot dot dot dealies that we all know and love...or hate...i'm addicted to them myself...ask anyone...i use them because there is always something more to say...
gup
Way to go Gup! And I use them as well, but I wanted to get the author's take on what I considered the overuse of them. And I think I offended him in the process dispite saying I liked the work.
I found his reference to Prince uncanny as well. I like Prince's work but have always found his use of writing numbers for words annoying. But I still like the work.
Hello,
hoe can I contact Matt Schemelia?
I believe he is my 3rd cousin. His father and mine are cousins.
Please forward to him if possible.
Thank you,

LOL@PAUL...hehehe...I almost posted that one in another name...but decided against it...I am really an angel though or...almost an angel, not quite divine :) Thank you.
Paul B...
I'm not offended, buddy...I was just pissed last night for no apparent reason...anyway, it's kinda cool to stir up some type of conversation on this thing...makes it interesting, even if it is about ELIPSES geesh i think calling them dotdotdot's is much easier
lol, anyway, I have noticed i overuse the dots...i'll attempt to calm down JUST FOR YOU PAUL BUDDY! alright?
later all thanks for all the good stuff to say
PS...i don't even know why I referred to Prince...I just like making obscure references in conversation...
where's that cup o' joe... sheesh, ALL the spellcheckers in the world, AND a chance to review before pressing "SEND" and I *still* make a typo... <shaking head> It's just not been my month this week... (as you can see, I am enamored of the ellipsis also!)

Shady----Girl, where have you been? We've had an APB---(all poet's bulletin out for you!)
Great new add---Also Kudos to Kev and Terry, and Hank---oh forget it---June has been awesome for all!
Dee has been ever the delight---our own artistic diva...
Kev has kept us going with the road series---which I suggest he submit for a chapbook competition I happen to have the skinny on---due in the Fall...
Tok---Angel---Megs---wow....exponentially wow.
And in the comments section, Mr. Riggs---normally crusty and cool gave the very best description of Satchmo's classic that I've ever heard...
NIkki love---you already are a poet, okay?
Chris and Misti---take care you two---happy trails!
I'm scheduled for some slicing and dicing on Tuesday---will miss you guys...back in a week or two.
Will try to finish the next chap of manifest, and pass it on
before surgery...
Thanks everybody---you've been too kind about the ramble, et al...
Wish me luck guys....and Paul dear---behave!
Shadygirl~
Welcome back, chica! I love your two new submissions, especially *untitled*! I've told Chris all about you!
:))))
To the country girls (Misti and Jenna) on the Blender-
Yeah baby!!! First of all Mi Vida Loca is only one of my signature songs. Go girl. Email me just for the hell of it...*grin* Anyways reading the lyrics just made me want to grab a certain guy and plant one on him and sing loudly...but I would have to be MAD drunk to do it.
And Jenna- Cowboy take me away is like...my prayer these days. I am glad you've found yours. Does he have a brother.
And Kev- Your words are perfect. As always. Come take ME on a road trip and get me the hell out of this crazy area. I owe you an email and a snail mail but damn its insane.
And Shadygirl- Kudos on Untitled. I have heard good stuff about you so...glad you are back.
Till Later-
Megs

Misi~ "A Much Sweeter Wet", was sooooooooooo sweet and touching....the last two lines were the clinchers.
Angel...*snake* is briLLiant!!! wOw... (damn dots! ha!)
Megs...I will send you a looooong, juicy e-mail now!
Michael,
holy crap man....you are an awesome poet...Expiration date...is...wow, i like it...and, (if you hate this musician, forgive me) but it almost had a slim shady touch to it...almost...but with a more clean cut image...but that's my take on it
...
Why thanky there Misti *SMILE*...OUT OUT DAMN DOTS!!! hehehehe
It would be good if you could include sections on lovemaking,with images and photos .
yes it would, SUBROSH...and while were at it maybe we could feature Patty Lovelace as your leading lady in a REALLY poetic FLICK!!!...grrrrrr
oops, I am sorry. I lost my southern charm.
