Misti ~ 'A Much Sweeter Wet' is magic to read when you live in the Arizona desert (and it just rained today for the first time in 4 months). Good image and feeling.

Here is Brandi's very first poem...which happened to make the cover way back in Oct. of 1998 . There is a pic of her and a recital of the poem on her new poetry page :)

not intentionally, but it did turn out a little that way huh. It's an original tune but i do listen to heaps of floyd so the influence is bound to be there. Do i have a fellow floyd fan here? I have been trying to convince the fella's in my band that we should cover Comfortably Numb for ages but they reckon its too long.

Eric:

"the worst poem ever written"

You rambled the things that my mind rambles and thinks about.. and moves too quickly for me to get down on paper... you managed though, and as i was reading, I became jealous, I wanted the same release, I could relate and understand, and I don't know if I am sane or not. Not all woman are bad, and guess if I have to I can admit that not all men are bad. But if I am crazy, it is because of man, and what his departure did to my heart and my soul. And you asked

"should i press "SEND IT" ? should I?
will they laugh? will they cry?
will they make fun and wish I would die?
will they ban me from writing or spit in my eye?"

I cried.... and I wanted more.

Thank you.

Thanks so much for your explanation! I was distraught for a while but now I'm feeling much better about the computer. *gush*

AlExAnDeR-
'He Skims' made my skin crawl. I loved it. I understood that feeling of, seeing someone you love, with someone who can't love them right. That feeling came across, sharp. I look forward to hearing more from you.

(blushing) Gala will you STOP.... please, you make me out to be some perfect angel girl.... which would be nice to pretend, but just not true.

(spots smouldering oozing out of a shadow) hey there handsome.

I've had the morning from hell.... gonna hide in the poetry for abit, but if someone comes looking for me, you've not seen me ok?

Misti~
Darling, 'Reconstuction' is sublime. We're gonna do it. We're gonna make it. Love you...

ZoE~
You know what I think of your stuff. You're way good. 'Letter To My Texas Sarah' is Front Page material without a doubt!

Alexander~
I dig your stuff, guy... Poetry rarely changes anything, but it's a damn good thing to do instead of going insane. Shooting beer cans with a .45 auto is good too.

I'm in the club with smoldering and Michael--I've fallen behind (on subs) and can't catch up! Help!

Megs & Ashley, do you accept senior members for your pity party? (Or I should say, Megs, since Ashley's social life seems to be picking up.) I'm suffering from bad dates. Or rather, date. Or something. Anyway, you can find me at hms65@yahoo.com or hms4060@aol.com.

The extent of the love in my life right now consists of gifts deposited at my door daily by...
. . .my cat. And the gifts are dead rodents.
(One was decapitated.)
Let's all hope there ISN'T a poem in that experience!

You flatter me too much. Thanks for the compliments.
