O o O o O O o oO o o o o O O O Oo Oo o o o o o o o o O o o O o O o O O O o O o O o O o O o O o O oo I live inside an empty world, my destiny has been unfurled, I've spoke the solitary pledge, heartbreak's pushed me off the edge I'm the girl without location, I wallow in my isolation And I'd live life all on my own, I'm not like every other clone So I can't catch your "love" disease, no warmth can melt me from my freeze Call me a freak, I'm on display, I've ended up there anyway So what? I capitalize my i's, and I'm not tricked by foolish lies, You're an oyster, I'm the pearl, the one and only: bubble girl O o O o O O o oO o o o o O O O Oo Oo o o o o o o o o O o o O o O o O O O o O o O o O o O o O o O oo insanity is not a crime [This message has been edited by Wind (07-29-2003 12:44 PM).] |

The presentation is wonderful! Wind - the talent you possess... is to be admired. And I do. I like seeing you getting "out of the box" and dancing on top! Sunshine |

Wind? This is just wonderful... You took a style of word-sculpt and then rhymed it--and the result is simple and wistful and real to the ear. I love this--like a sing-song chant of a schoolgirl with a punch. |

I also stand up applauding your critique message. Writing from the head is nothing to be ashamed of, Elizabeth. In fact, hearing this really gives me a lot more respect for you. This poem is really neat - especially all the "bubbles" you put at the start and the end. A bubble is a neat idea to describe yourself. A pocket of air, with a thin, delicate outside, but otherwise essentially the same on the inside. Neato---loved the formatting, too. You could have gotten around rhyming with "world" and that second sorta-cliche line. Otherwise the writing is really clever and light-toned and I can appreciate that. I'm going to keep a closer eye on your writing. You're quite the young poet, Liz. Parasite Faith is a fine invention |

Excellent job, Liz. Another great poem! “We are all travelers in the wilderness of this world, and the best that we can find in our travels is an honest friend.” –Robert Louis Stevenson |
