and yet another upsetting verse for you can guess who
May 9th 2007 11:28
Perhaps if I feed a certain jealous / cranky blogger enuff verse he 'll choke on his own nastiness?
What he has to be jealous or cranky about I dont know so he gets more votes for his blogs than my blogs do! Perhaps its cos I'm not interested in joining his mutual admiration society.
This was written in 1987. I was waiting for a late night bus , after studying at the library.
It was one of those cold frosty nights when the stars seem both distant and close.
Rather mixed meter of alternaitng syllabic counts
I was trying to shape the ideas and images and feelings into a something like a Japanese waka / tanka.

I stand so small
Below the high bright stars
Nothing and less
In the darkness
Between their distant fires
But even so!
O! the beauty!

Yep, I know EXACTLY who you're talking about now.

Floating blind spot in my visual field!!! along with another problem that gives me a tendency to reverse syllables!
Satire and parody should be addressed to the world's evils ... like Paris Hiltons' Get me Out Of Doing Time Petition. Now the phrasing of that does deserve a parody!

A note for others lurkers : guess who
... and at least I can write about something apart from sex ... OVID did it better and CATULLUS!
Donne Marvell dozens of othe rpoets of both genders
I dont want him throwing anything at me
... bones bad verse synopses film scripts tantrums ...
I reckon his little game and I' ve seen this before on the net is to goad the other person into snapping at him and then go on and on an don to his clique about how nasty the other person is even when he started it !
Ohwell if worse comes to worse there's always the option of doing a parody...
to the tune of
G&S ...yes that's Gilber t and Sullivan
I am the very model of a modern major general
I am the very model of a pesky pomo p***k
I abuse assonance and alliteration
My public persona is an abomination
I am the very model of a disrespectful d**k
I'm so obsessed with making out with the other sex
that I've managed to bore my readers far faraway
they wish I'd find something with which to play
cos I've a bigger ego tha a Luthor named Lex!
I've no respect for learning or scholarship
but why I can t confess so I make myself a pest
so I pick on some poor philosophic poetess
and never have given the nine ladies true worship!
I've gotta claque! I gotta clique! but I 've got no grace
I have no grasp of chivalry or true gallantry
But I'm got my popularity so f*** morality
I'm lord of my very little so limited blog space!
Parody is too easy!
