Re: RE: the only war that matters
I ain't mad about anything neither;
I was just wondering what it was that pissed me off, i am some dense I figured you were just fucking with me again
I been returning to my vomit like a good little fool
weird times for me
everything seems so clear to me
as clear as the blood in the safeway parking lot
the government is messing with the grammar again.
I may have to parse this''
I been working in my crazy again
Conrad was right we have no need for supernatural evil
no ghoulies or vampirre
the dead souls walk among us
dead souls
early morning cold
just me and my five dollar a liter wine and a little pot
you can fuck with me anytime dino

Re: RE: the only war that matters
I appreciate your tolerance
Your poetry is one of the pleasures in my life that helps me keep on keeping on now that pogo has left the building.

Re: RE: the only war that matters
i think it's saturn - i added the pic to my file a while ago - not sure what the deal is. it's not a question of tolerance - it's more akin to pleasure. i always enjoy hearing from you. i wish we would've known each other back in baltimore.

Not sure what you are, I call you genuis. When I think about you in the abstract you are Greek to me. I tell you dino it was a bad day in Black Rock the day the Jews and the Greeks hooked up. Hellenized Jews...no I will spare you another rant about that. I suppose what I admire most about the Greeks is that for the ages they have managed to hold onto their home twenty. Unlike the ...
I don't know how we would have found each other back in the good old days. Speaking of Baltimore.
I would like to get back to Workman's Circle some day. Check out Crazy Mike's tombstone to see if we are getting "perpetual care". Last time I saw it ws thirty years ago and it was leaning bad, almost ready to fall over. Probably from the vibrations of the trucks rolling down Dundalk Avenue on their way to the marine terminal.

Re: RE: the only war that matters
okay, thanks, I will and I would be most appreciative.
also I appreciate the foot note to Medusa.
what the hell is a Villanelle anyway.'
"Thus a Villanelle has 19 lines"
Oh okay.
don't mind me
I am trying not to learn too much about poetry, just be grateful someone can do it so I can read it.
also I appreciate the foot note to Medusa.
patiently she waits, the gracious one
her serpentine tresses coil and hiss
with the sibilance of the damned
Thinking I like them both why not use them both, no criticism intended just wondering. Probably something to do with the form of the poem, 14 lines?there is only one woman
no matter how many times we meet
she has the same eyes
what the hell is a Villanelle anyway.'
"Thus a Villanelle has 19 lines"
Oh okay.

Re: RE: the only war that matters
i don't know - i stared at the poem for a while and thought it might be better without it. revision is strange. sometimes i just let various versions to exist at the same time.
