got one

orangatan

gutless banal toad 3

this is poetry that slips the boundaries of short lines is all. the adept use of sound gives this the musicality prose lacks. you know it.

these two lines alone ride the tonal wave:

So clay? Dog shit in orange sand! From clay made man?

Just one genetic click - go back to orangatan.

I like the subtle rhyme scheme and that the poem seems blasted apart and patched back together again. Good example of how line length and the whole prose/poetry babble is an illusion. Also, you are a deeply satirical man!

Gave it a five, which it deserves, but I have to read it at least five more times to pull more meaning from it. But that's me, not your poem.

My you're really precious 1201 !!

tazz, i'm lonely

well...this one is beyond my current pay grade - so no vote from me on this right now, but comments:

Chock full 'o Gods - the mythic and current ones. Makes for interesting reading at least and had me thinking ..hmm, where have I heard that before?

I like the play on color in the second section

'sacrifice for our rice' - no idea how that fits in..I don't remember the Mayans having anything but corn but then again there are lots of intentional contradictions here..which makes it difficult to comment on content

Structure - or antistructure...given the title and content, it works. Trippy, 1201. Very trippy.

Hmmm.....this gets posted and mine gets refused. Very interesting. We are certainly on a level playing field around here, aren't we? Yes, but there is no plot in yours, it's just pure beautiful poetry. And the fawning sychophants stand in line to praise your brilliance. No, there are no cliques here either. What a farce!

The individual who commented above was correct - there's no plot. No substance. Nothing except for a curious jumble of words; utter drivel. As a poet, you would make a good plumber.

I think I ridiculed this one, but I think I found the clog
