3. Noted.

But, you know, I've only got one more of those.

Last I heard, King was still keeping most of his poetry to himself (unfortunately). He should publish vats of poetry.

7. That is unfortunate. Sometimes I have to wonder

where one person gets so much inspiration & energy for so many different occupations. I haven't heard the band he plays in with Amy Tan. And then there's his political work. And his poetry. All on top of everything else he does. Wow.

2. I do read them. I just don't comment.
Same with R_L's threads.

Actually, in spite of my big mouth on here, I read quite a bit more than I post.

12. Read them, don't comment, and I voted for the "Robb is a dingbat" option
even though you cleverly disguised it as "The poems are not focused enough on the womanly parts."

14. So, I guess it's safe to say my poetry breaks focus enough on the womanly parts.

15. As safe as saying there's apparently no upper limit to the discussion of "parts" in the lounge,
whether they be womanly or manly.

20. Nothing personal. I just don't really dig poetry.
Unless it's set to music. Then it becomes lyrics and suddenly I like it. But just reading it makes it come across as flat to me, and I feel like I'm not giving it the credit it deserves. Or that I'm simply to dumb to get it.

I'm weird. :silly:
