I ...This one wasn't too long though.<br />---------<br /><br />I see my upcoming word verification letters are "ballado" and, as always, I try to imagine what that word means. Is "ballado" just Spanish for "ballad"? Or is it a Spanish man who's occupation is ball kicker? No, I suppose that would be a balladero.Relax Maxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01051381168322495999noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7555664269648250473.post-18646473789516624782011-12-07T14:49:34.042-06:002011-12-07T14:49:34.042-06:00I've been known to hate hate poems.

First the lightening, then the thunder, then the downpour drenching everyone about me .....then - it passes. And laughter returns. <br /><br />The last line is the best line. <br /><br />But I also like <i>The blue-green speck of sock lint I'm trying to dig from under my third toenail, left foot, hates you.</i> I'm writing that one down to use next time I hate you.<br /><br />xxxred dirt girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12939283533222061484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7555664269648250473.post-32883627954577781532011-12-06T16:05:50.127-06:002011-12-06T16:05:50.127-06:00"the goldfish of my genius hates you."

Are you sure y...Ah, but so beautifully described. <br /><br />Are you sure you've never ever felt like that? Where every motion, every simple word that passes your lips, every exaggeratedly polite action is charged and crackling?<br /><br />"Breathlessly, like two idealists in a broken submarine"<br /><br />I think she's writing not so much of hate, as of anger. The anger you nurture and enjoy, for a while, before you realise just how misplaced and futile it is, before you learn to laugh at yourself.soubriquethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01151288534629885195noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7555664269648250473.post-90513534867974369302011-12-06T12:33:23.948-06:002011-12-06T12:33:23.948-06:00all that wasted energyall that wasted energygzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08034777779347889773noreply@blogger.com
