Okay, I haven't read any posts in over 8 days and I got a HECK of a lot of catching up to do...<BR>
<BR>
Why I post here?<BR>
<BR>
Becase I've been reading here for awhile, found out that there's people out there who've got the same incessant need to put their dramatic heartbreaks and flakes and bits and bites and blow ups into words, like me. Also, to prove to myself that I do have a voice, and I can actually use it without being ridiculed. <BR>
<BR>
Sometimes...<BR>
<BR>
Otay! Off to read! Catch ya laters...<BR>

Ok Jack ~  The absolute best of everything you've ever written and I really really mean it. I simply love it, especially the last line:<BR>
<BR>
'and i awake to look with such sadness felt<BR>
of a can empty of late suns melt<BR>
then i feel a slow beginning smile<BR>
for an ad that i had pulled from a file<BR>
of a sale on peaches and the cost of love<BR>
of two cans bought for the price of one'

Liz~<BR>
Thanks muchly! I found all my newest old submissions buried way back in old xanga blogs. I was surprised I hadn't submitted them to the Blender. I've found quite a few incredible poets at xanga, especially bittersuit (that's how she spells it). I've encouraged them to post here.<BR>

TJ <a href="/blend/wv.cgi?id=2002.09.24.18.27.16321">Classified</a> I like the almost breakneck pace of the words and the way its all strung together, a bit like things seem to be happening in the real world these days -- words fail me, this really got to me for some reason, wow...

Yes, as some of y'all had noticed, my webhost seemed to be having some technical difficulties. Things look generally cleared up now.
