As it is within our nature that we do things to excess please excuse the nomenclature ( does that word fit? Yeah, I guess.) "Ipso" when it comes to writing it is my one true belief, "Facto" nothing's more delighting than me keeping these things brief. As you see, I did not waver, but got right down to the point. I would not risk your dis-favor and go stinkin' up the joint, nor engage in wasted prattle on my part, though I confess, I am sometimes prone to rattle on about "Bewilderness" No,wait that's not right I meant to say "about Bewilderment". It's the only place they'll let me stay since " The Experiment" which has left me so befuddled when I am under duress, that the only way I can relate poetically's a mess! No, there is no cure, but, as it were, none's needed either, see? For, the truth is that I can obscure all trace of this from thee. I shall hide it 'tween the lines where no one looks and I profess, that dis-orders such as mine often reside, but, I digress. For the purpose of this poem was not to write an epic tale or to verbiously roam on down some path that's doomed to fail. For indeed, the more I say, the lower odds are for success, to complete this "brief" essay within a million words, or less. [This message has been edited by Dr.Moose1 (04-29-2005 07:57 PM).] |
