    my head is so filled with
    silence, the round murmur
    trundled, worked toward
    absence; then a delicate

    hum, a distant bee swarm
    en route, then i am engulfed
    one thousand yellow and black
    finger tips, two thousand

    glass wings flapping faster
    than the speed of sound, and
    i in the center, too struck to
    be scared.


By agatha on Saturday, December 16, 2006 - 11:38 pm:

    I like your name.


By Spider on Sunday, December 17, 2006 - 12:16 am:

By Czarina on Monday, December 18, 2006 - 06:35 am:

By milt on Wednesday, December 20, 2006 - 03:56 am:

    v, you are an absolute bore.


By milt on Wednesday, December 20, 2006 - 04:03 am:

    also, in interest of being fair and open, i must say i know who jack is. the secret identity. v, you should fear this, a man who is so well endowed with information about your nemesis.


By agatha on Wednesday, December 20, 2006 - 01:12 pm:

    Ha! This is shaping up for major strange quite nicely. I should go make some popcorn.


By Margret on Wednesday, December 20, 2006 - 01:20 pm:

    you know what's really good with popcorn? fudge. not a lot, but just like a 1" cube of dense, melt on your tongue fudge.
    it snowed yesterday and is snowing again. it took me an hour and a half to drive home last night and an hour to drive to work this a.m. i stopped for doughnuts so that the doughty souls who made it in could reward themselves.


By Dr Pepper on Thursday, December 21, 2006 - 03:28 am:

    Margret, We had a rain today, and the temp is in the 40's ,i mean hey, it is December.


By Dr Pepper on Thursday, December 21, 2006 - 03:14 pm:

    Oh sorry, Margret, if you would like to sip pretzel in chocolate and let it dry, it taste so good, you can use it for your family on christmas day. taste so good.


By milt on Friday, December 22, 2006 - 03:17 am:

    today
    i drew upon my strengths,

    & in being drawn they were
    deconstructed
    by a cruel taxonomist:

    the solid ground removed,
    reclassified; my simple
    & organic truth

    was cast aside
    for newer, better things,

    & molten
    in a discarded sense

    was i,

    & peculiar
    in my skin, perhaps

    a stranger has slipped
    within, has joined

    the choir i have formed
    to add one more voice

    who cries sweetly
    in the frosthung air

    & sneaks along
    these dormant streets,

    seeking solace
    in our sacred vessels.


By And per se and on Friday, December 22, 2006 - 03:20 am:

    i am a demon.
    milt i am a demon.
    and per se and

    &

    i am a demon.


By Spider on Friday, December 22, 2006 - 03:42 am:

    Oh.

    I am beaming at you.


By milt on Friday, December 22, 2006 - 04:18 am:

    chas: hey. bet that was a good sandwich.

    liz: no, not really, no.

    chas: do you like...(lasciviously) CHEESE?

    liz: sure.

    chas: i'm charles jackson. my friends call me cheese.


By agatha on Friday, December 22, 2006 - 12:18 pm:

    I'm enjoying your writing, Milt. Are you really a Milt, or are you someone else from these boards posing as a Milt?


By Nate on Friday, December 22, 2006 - 02:56 pm:

    i think i know who milt is.


By jack on Friday, December 22, 2006 - 03:46 pm:



    i hear milt knows jack.

    which would imply that jack knows milton.

    or something.





By Spider on Friday, December 22, 2006 - 04:11 pm:

    Jack, is that a kind
    of haiku? If you broke your
    lines differently, yes.

    i hear milt knows jack.
    which would imply that jack knows
    milton. or something.


By Nate on Friday, December 22, 2006 - 05:36 pm:

    hm. well, either i'm wrong about who milt is, or jack is someone other than 'jack', or milt is a liar, or the real milt knows something that i don't know s/he knows.

    if that isn't confusing.

    and i don't like haiku.


By Spider on Friday, December 22, 2006 - 05:56 pm:

    You're missing out.

    Issa is my favorite of the haiku artists.

    The snow is melting
    and the village is flooded
    with children.

    Climb Mount Fuji,
    O snail,
    But slowly, slowly.



    What a strange thing!
    To be alive
    beneath cherry blossoms.

    The man pulling radishes
    pointed my way
    with a radish.



    Blossoms at night,
    and the faces of people
    moved by music.

    In this world,
    we walk on the roof of hell,
    gazing at flowers.


By milt on Friday, December 22, 2006 - 07:32 pm:

    i find this amusing.
