after the fact

one more addition to the poesy category: this, written 06may00. tonight reminded me of it in a way. for obvious reasons, yes, and some not so obvious.


after the fact

i was finding
 existence costly;
i named two
 kittens: widget
   and dweezil.
i waited hours with
 childlike malevolence &
   a sense of
     depletion.
fear was, as
 always, an influence
   on me & these
dubious reasons why i
 was willing &
   followed
& left, variously, with
 these facts, all
   nuanced & inconclusive
& no answers.

    Very clear, great formatting there. Makes me think of cummings, and I was already in that mood. Poems make me happy.

    oh, that one wasn’t generated. i actually wrote that. you know, deliberately.

    but the poemgen thingy is great, isn’t it? i’m so glad i’ve got other people posting again. more blogs = more words to randomize = fun.

    You mean, when we enter a URL and hit the button, you quickly compose something on the spot and put it on our screen? Damn, you’re fast. It only took a couple of seconds.
