There're times when one must realize the facts for what they are, and make no further compromise, albeit in the name of fun. 'lest principles be sacrificed and leave un-sightly scars, it is for this one reason my "attacks" on "Deer" are done. There can be no good out-come to a "battle" waged as this. Good conscience states (perhaps, too late) I may have crossed the line. Were I not to acknowledge that, then I would be re-miss, and forced to take a lower road than I would have as mine. I'll make no false apologies, nor ask for quarter here, but, merely state the obvious for all who care to look. I chose this form on purpose, which I learned from Balladeer, 'cause imitation still is flattery in any book. |

Enjoyed. I wish to become a great poet some day, but it will only come in time. Til then, I shall write my poems, and wait. |

Well. Hmmm. I never thought you went too far. But then they tell me I'm a bad judge of such things. I've been enjoying the poetic joust, and yes, Balladeer is second poet here that I "studied." (Michael Anderson would be the first.) I've learned much from them both, and say thank you so much that I'm probably embarrassing them. You are on my "study" list too. I watch you...and I see you in the workshops and take note of your constant challenges to yourself. You persevere and your writing inspires. So, thanks Doc...  |

I didn't know it was possible to go too far with our Deer one, but maybe I missed something you wrote? |

Connel, Thank you. Serenity, Much as I would say about yours, thanks. My inferance about "going too far" would be a combination of the fact that although I admire a great many poets here, I can't prevent my ego from taking control of what I write in these situations. What can I say, other than I should not indulge myself in this type of writing, as it will always degenerate to the point where I no longer get any satisfaction from it. Does that make any sense? Doc Midnitesun, Thanks, and please see above. Doc |
