I love this entry! Why? Because I relate, man! Romantics, eh! I loved Kundera’s, “Life is Elsewhere”, because he totaly put his finger on the whole, “I love ideals more than dirty reality” theme behind the Puer skateboarder dude that I love to hate (and hate to love). Yuck! Signed, Puella.

Oh, no ya don’t….no going off on the romantics. Were it not for us, you realists would have nothing to write about….
Seriously, though- if you’d like to read some interesting “lyrics-as-poetry”, check out “Murder of One” here: http://www.annabegins.com/
(or anything else there). Might want to check out some L. Ferlinghetti, A. Ginsberg or Shel Silverstein as well. Especially Shel.

there are very few poets that i like:

Rumi
e.e.cummings

those are the only two i can think of.

and i do have a category called “poems” on my blog (i hope i’m not the one Ivy was referring to), but i don’t consider myself a poet. sometimes i just feel like i can only write in fragments - that expanding out into sentences will really cause too much loss of meaning in my head, and so i just labeled them poems. i think i’ll have to change the label so that no one thinks i consider myself a poet.

Hi,
this has zero to do with this post, but i was just thinking since you share so much of yourself on this site, it was my turn. id like to invite you to read a post on my page. we talked about midwiery once ,and you make those warmies, so it relevant-ish.
otherwise,
have a great day.

There once was a man from Nantucket…

(see, not all poetry is bad!
