Flash~~ Deep..... I am at the same level with you on "The worst of it"'s subject.. ... I just think being yourself is more valuable than perhaps pleasing someone elses ego... the world is full of enough actors as it is... this brings me to:<BR>
<BR>
Smiling Kat~~"Artificial Intelligence" the same... also... is it just me.. or do you always have cute ':)' in your poems all the time? ;-)<BR>
<BR>
Echolocation~~ Great metaphor in "Fish or Cut Bait"<BR>
<BR>
Ali~~"I Am With You" was a touching and sweet.. its definately one of those poems you want the subject to see...

Gala ~ You KNOW I have my own hancuffs...(it comes with the job) and I'd be MORE than happy to use them on a babe FBI guy!! We don't need to worry about taking a number Gala, my love. Vandal can get a FeeBee for you too (there will be more than one toting that battering ram). As far as 'shameless hussy' goes...I'll concede to the 'shameless' at times, but 'hussy' is out of the question, as you well know! LOL! <BR>
<BR>
Neon ~ I think we all need to be very careful during these troubled times. That means being on guard for our safety, but it also includes not persecuting the innocent. I'm sure we'll be seeing too many cases of that soon enough. <BR>

Deep Peace of This Gentle Earth to You All.<BR>

I am still confused by some comments, but all are welcomed.  Neon we are all I am American just like you, we have the right of freedom.  If you choose to call the FBI that is up to you.  But my family is part of the loss.  Many family members have died because of this, so it hits me amoung many others pretty hard.  Anyways the poem you comment on, if you want it to have a title I will title it "Vampire".  Cause in the eyes of some a Vampire is supose to be a very romantc creater.  And if you go back and read it you will see that with the title of such it is what the poem is about.  But I am not here to try and tell people to like my writings, if you hate it that is fine by me.  <BR>
<BR>
Thanks again to all of you for the comments.  I am enjoying the postings.  <BR>

I am not a fanatic and I am not going to be scared to speak my mind either. I have a friend at work that is Kurdish and he has not been to work since it happened (too scared I am sure) I went to an Arab restaurant yesterday for lunch to show my concerns about the threats and violence of a people that as Americans belong here just as much as we do.<BR>
 The use of fear as any vechicle for attention or otherwise speaks buckets in itself (and much more so at this time) regardless of how good or not the writer is. You paint Christ in Feces and (heaven forbid I am not a religious fanatic either) it's still Feces as is this.

Neon, everytime you comment to me you use the statement of getting attention.  I am not trying to get attention.  I am just here as the rest of you are to post my writtings and see what others think.  In no way is my writting posted just to get attention.  And think of it this way.  If I were someone that you need to report to the FBI why in the world would I be trying to bring atention to myself?<BR>

Hey Everybody...<BR>
Back after a long time. Love to Harem, Du'Doll, Warrior Poet and all the rest. Is Dark Angel still missing? I am reading everything here and totally happy that I'm back. Been away so long, it feels like years and years.<BR>
Hope to submit some work soon and visit more often.<BR>
Dark Angel, if you see this, let me know how you are 'cause I'm worried about you and wondering if you're still unwell. If anyone knows how Dark Angel is, please let me know. Dark Angel is ojne poet whose words have haunted me since the very first day I read them and everyday since.<BR>
Harem, what's up with you? Hope you're doing great.<BR>
That's about it. Love to all.<BR>

Hello All.<BR>
<BR>
    I hope those that are in poor spirits are soon lifted and those with high hopes soar even higher.  I saw an amazing movie tonight.  In light of the past week - not excluding the past 3000 years of civilization, I thought it inspiring.  Pay It Forward was a wee bit corny, but very sweet and a kind attribute to the society we live in.  Random acts of kindness!  Imagine that!  I am a sucker for a chic flick - but this was more, if you choose to accept it.  Check it out.<BR>
<BR>
Violet:<BR>

    <a href="/blend/wv.cgi?id=2001.09.17.17.57.24444">push</a> and <a href="/blend/wv.cgi?id=2001.09.17.18.07.29565">the little things you do for me</a> are wonderful.  This says it all: make me feel like a naked chick in an art museum.  I really enjoyed the two pieces you entered today.  I shall peruse your past entries.  I am sure that they too will move me.  Good work.<BR>

  <a href="/blend/wv.cgi?id=2001.09.17.20.34.25607">Maple Sugar Monday</a> is also quite wonderful.  Your words frequently make me think.  I like that; both the thinking AND the reading of your words!  I think you are on fire (ouch)! I would like to see more of this side that you are showing (YESSSS)!<BR>

   Thanks and appreciation to you and of your comments.  I think I like Jigsaw Puzzle too. I don't really know if I really enjoy my words until I have forgotten them and read again later - the test lies within how I feel about them much later.  Many things I have posted I wrote ten or so years ago in high school.  Since I have only written that one recently, I may regret its posting soon - we'll see.<BR>
<BR>
Violet:<BR>
WOW!  I just read <a href="/blend/wv.cgi?id=2001.09.17.03.10.19575">cherries</a> .  How did I miss that jewel?  I used to know that trick too, years ago.  How fabulous that your nine lines can get into me so quickly.  A flood of memories, good and not so, are swimming around up there! This rocks: i'm the center of attention...you stare like you could watch all night.  I repeat WOW.  How old are you?  You speak with insight, yet I can't help but imagine you too bright for your age - an age that is younger than your experiences.<BR>

Your newest, Falling Through Walls, is fan-freakin-tastic!  I think that you can say so much in so few lines, it humbles the eyes.  I also want to tell you that I too wanted to post It's Been A While (or Outside) by Staind.  Aaron Lewis is feakishly personal in his song writing.  I was unsure if others would have heard that wonderful tune.  There are SO many songs that can say what I want better than I ever could, unless I was to be possessed by Sylvia Plath herself.  Do you listen to Fiona Apple?  Her newest (about a year or so old now) When The Pawn... is a story that is aching to be told.  If you haven't listened, I highly recommend it.  Also, lyrics.com will allow you to read her words - well worth it.<BR>

You and I are so totally in the same boat.  I wasn't supposed to fall in love with him, but I went out with him once and bamm!  I was all caught up.  We hated eachother all the way through high school, who knows why.  Maybe we had always been attracted to one another.  But what now.  I am not the only one that loves him.  Does loving him enough, mean that I should let him go (without a fight)?  I want to be with him and only him.  We are at two different schools.  I guess what is meant to be will be.  Thank you for writing.  Your poems mean alot to me.<BR>

Thanks to all of the comments on "Remember".  Just so you know the person I wrote that for has never read it.  So if they loved it I can not really say.  I am enjoying the postings and hope that you all continue to enjoy mine.
