squeen.... you take that back, up against Harem I'm not even a princess. :-P
Hi misti...
When I was commenting---that line "don't get too comfortable---I'm not planning to remember you"...was like a ping pong ball in my brain...and it sent me back...
Was it just me...or were men bastards back then? I know you are younger than me...but there have been times when I read your work, and thought damn...that sounds familiar...guess it hasn't changed that much. But thanks...and happy birthing day to you, chica...I think the angel is gonna love the keyboard...and the books...
Dee ~ you asked...
"Gala explained 'a bit about me' huh? oh yes, do tell..."
-Ya, she said that I shouldn't take anything personally because you razz everyone equally.
"(don't trust Gala, haven't you heard about sneaky fairy types?)"
-Hmmm, she also said you were harmless, and rather sweet! Should I still not trust her? LOL!
-Teej
Now Dee...
I can explain...please don't beat me....again?
Gala, quaking...
*frown*
as punishment you are both to go to my store and by a deevaa mug or something.... www.cafepress.com/deevaa
off you go.
I've known Dee longer than most of you folks... She is the epitome of talent in my book. Not only that, I respect her opinion. I am in the same boat as her in that what I post these days here tends to go unnoticed. But that is okay. The point is to contribute positively, and I think that most of you do. Growth is never a negative thing, now is it?

Thank you sweetness and scqueen - that really means a lot to me, and thank you Kirk for the November pick.
Aye, Chris is right...
and writing to please others is like being an actor.
this world has too many as it is.
just write cause you gotta
They'll end up on your HD some way or another any ways.
lately this place resembles more a social get-together
more than just poetry.., battles and dating firms
like the corner with a starbucks
damn yuppies...
respect others
we're all just nerds pressin' keys
write to write
not to submit
sheesh
Hey All....
Um, Stephen....I do prefer Geek to Nerd. Let's not make that same mistake again, OK? He he - that is my best Dirty Harry.
Kev -
You rock. Since I have been spying on this site back in August, I have submitted 2 or 3 times as much as you - and I would take your quality over my quantity ANY day. Burn baby burn...even your intro sounds great!
Violet - music...you found your Music man, huh? Love it!
Madi ~ Yeah...yeah! You probably would have gotten bitten up with sand fleas..best to just stay home. :)
Teej and B.K. ~ I just don't know about you two. Have you thought about going on a comedy tour with each other? You crack me up! Scqueen and deevaa could rotate in and provide the heckling! I have enjoyed the hilarity of late on this site.
The Darlin Rhet, glad that I am STILL evading the law from that B&E back in '72!
SOULS!
You found us! And man, that is lovely...welcome to the Blender sir...but wait...been here before? Gala is old dear...forgive me.
And this poem melts the heart into an icky pool...
Okay, okay, okay! You're definately right Kevin, Keeper of the Questions. Dee IS talented. And VERY demanding. lol!
Now I suppose I have to go buy something from her....Gala?? Lend me fifty bucks, will ya?
And you also are correct about posting positives. LOL! As a matter of fact, you are just plain correct!
Seriously, Kev...I have always thought your work was extremely well excecuted. Tight. Precise. Yet flowing and changeable. EXTREME TALENT. I hope you stay here till you are old and grey and can't type anymore.

(the latest writer's challenge)
I'll be back later with my attempt. Have at it! Bye.
I have been reading alot of the poems lately. I must say that I think that anyone who has the ability to put down their thoughts in written form, be it tangible or not, has talent. I have posted a few poems here and there, but I wish that more people would comment on fellow writers' works. It really is frustrating to post something you thought had reasonable promise, only to have it lie in its own "surface glory". Responses make me feel worthwhile, personally. Tell me what you think.
Sincerely,
~Max~
P.S.-- And yes, I do comment on others' work. I enjoy the correspondence. :p
I have a question for anyone who can help...why are guys so stubborn and unwilly to express there feelings. (not all guys, I am stero-typing). Do they honestly think girls are smart enough to figure everything out for themselves. Because so NO ONE can completely figure out anything all by themselves. grrr...I'm sorry everyone, I'm just really confused and no amount of poetry or letters seem to let this guy know that all I want is for him to quit playing games and just tell me what's going on. Then again, maybe I have firgured it out for myself...IT'S ALL JUST A WASTE OF TIME, and it's time to move on. What do you all think?
Love Always

I'm bad at keeping up with reading the board all the time... I know. But I read your latest schpeil, and thought that it was a little unnecessary. I understand that some groups of people can be more accepting to some people than others, but thats part of why there are so many people and groups out there. If you find a little friction in one, maybe you just don't mesh, then don't sweat it and move on. I don't understand the purpose of pointing out that you're moving on though... if you haven't been happy here, why tell everyone else? If you are completely free from needing the support of this board, then why say goodbye?
I hope I haven't offended anyone, but people who maliciously try to hurt people really upset me. Anyway Harem, I'm glad you found a new home, tah tah.
~Pepper~
Soulsease- I really liked Can you? . Just wanted to tell you that I thought it was really good. Reaaly great imagery. Thank's for sharing!!
violet_karma ~
emotional waters is great.
/My story a fortress
Reflected in your pool/
Great metaphor!
Misit ~
I like your "song". You really come up with clever verse.
/there are lies to tell
myths to dispel/
Yes there are – I need to get around to mine!
Violet ~
Your attempt at the challenge, your elephant nonsense, is so cool. Even the title rocks! I hope mine doesn’t appear too pathetic. I have been really analyzing my lot in life lately, so this one is real, as well as a stab at the challenge!
Rhet
Hey Rhet! How dare you show me up! And immediately after my submission... *sigh* must i live in the shadow of the rehtorical one!??? ;-)
*Hiding in Shame* ~Violet~
Hey all -- misplaced my Note-To-Self about where to go to buy cool Blender t-shirts etc, someone please help me out? Thanks!
Echo
PS Is there a link to it somewhere on Blender Home that I missed? If not, perhaps hint hint there could be?
blue sky to your clouds--
I can totally relate! I have been with my man for 2 yrs and he still keeps all his crap balled up inside... I hate it for you that you are going through that. Jason still refuses to talk to me and tell me what he honestly thinks unless it's something negative about me. I have came to the same conclusion as you-- IT IS DEFINATELY BEGINNING TO BE A WAIST OF TIME..... but you see, you have it more fortunate than I. I was stupid enough to have a child with this man.
Violet ~ you have absolutely NO reason to be concerned about the quality of the writer's challenge. Oh my Go-!! Yours was incredible!!!!!!!!
-Teej
Rhet and Violet~
I love your writer's challenge poems! The list seems harder than usual, for some reason. I'm going to submit my stab at it on the sly. I'm at work. They can't catch me. My attempt sucks, but here we go!
TJHolland~ :-) thank you muchly! you really liked it? Yay! "they like me, they really like me!" :-P
And Hey Misti~ I thought yours was great! Iliked the line that had "ameliorate" in it. :-) You're wonderful!
Ok, I'm way behind in comments but here are some

memories consumed into tears of blue petals

To Ali and BK,
thank you for your comment on Living for Monday. it's the first thing i've been able to write in almost a year, so i was worried about its execution.
~Bob
Corinna- I loved Behind The Eyes, it's exactly what i'm going through right now.
Jubal- Chemistry 101 was cute, i especially like the allusion to deer hunting.
