<[caeb]> Is this the one you wrote on a bus and think is not all that good but are probably posting it anyway?
|
|
I think you're rather wrong about the no good part.
|
|
|
|
|
|
<[Brennen]> Yes.
|
|
|
|
|
|
<[Brennen]> (And hrm.)
|
|
|
|
|
|
<[Molly]> it's very very good.
|
|
|
|
|
|
<[caeb]> Also I am glad to hear there's no such thing as spiders.
|
|
|
|
|
|
<[brennen]> I do what I can. (Re: Spiders.)
|
|
|
|
<[caeb]> Except kill them, I've noticed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
<[brennen]> Perhaps I've secretly taken a selective vow of nonviolence.
|
|
|
|
|
|
<[Brent]> I've gotten weird about the killing thing in the last few years. Won't even kill a tick, now, unless a kid's freaking out about it. (As was the case a few days ago.)
|
|
|
|
Agreed with caeb and Molly about this bit of poetry being ''quite'' good.
|
|
|
|
|
|
<[caeb]> I understand the hesitation with killing them, actually. If the bastards don't sneak up on me I let them live sometimes. But irrational fears and nonviolence are often hard to reconcile.
|
|
And, dude, your selective nonviolence vow is not so much a secret, as it is... HIGHLY selective. You still eat cows after all, Mr. Cognitive Dissonance.
|
|
|
|
|
|
<[brennen]> Well.
|
|
|
|
I mean.
|
|
|
|
But cows taste good?
|
|
|
|
|
|
<[caeb]> Some cultures say the same of spiders.
|
|
(Although I think maybe I'm walking the wrong way with this...)
|
|
|
|
|
|
<[Brennen]> I was going to say - are you sure you want to go down that path?
|
|
|
|
|
|
<[caeb]> Am I ever?
|
|
|
|
|
|
<[caeb]> And does that ever stop me?
