Does Dr. Seuss count as poetry? :lol: When we were younger my brother liked to write poems that made zero sense and annoy me to death by reading them and sadistically enjoying my irritation and confusion. He said real poems never rhyme and always have some really deep meaning that you're not suppos... |

No not at all. It just happens. I have to come home and make myself cum about 5 times before I'm satisfied. I don't even think about my T or even about the things I've spoke about. It's just weird. I'm wondering if it's something to do with feeling vulnerable. Probably a phase youre going through. ... |

I don’t feel the Chinese premier will be that stupid. He might fall to a common disease of dictators - start believing his own propaganda. I hope it doesn't happen but we have to be prepared. There's a second disease of dictators, if they're belligerent and aggressive, they eventually place themsel... |

Yeah. Like the Terminator he just keeps coming back to life. And we live in a world where Santos is allowed to serve in Congress. So anything is possible. Right now even a GOP nomination for Trump seems impossible, but De Santis shows signs of impending political self destruction. So Trump might win... |

Back in the Seventies anthropologist Margaret Mead would say that "the average suburban American has 80 to a 100 'energy slaves' in their home". That is...the average middle class american - with our electrical appliances, and modern conveniences, has the equivalent of 80 human slaves work... |

I dont know why he wasted breath talking about shooting a handgun to the head (since he is not an infantry commander, but a commander of pilots who fire missiles at other planes) unless he is speaking metaphorically ...like about taking out the enemy's command centers with airstrikes early in the ga... |

Starting another "whose holocaust was the worst?" debate is inane and stupid. Hitler is not judged "more harshly", but about equally harshly as others. Stalin or Mao might have killed more people in camps, but they didnt start a world war that killed more millions. And if Hitler ... |

Haiku has no meter or rhythm or rhyme, just a format.
Haiku is fine ...in Japanese. But not in any other language including English. The format fits the structure of the Japanese language. |

I'm in a position where really I only want to do a couple per week and sitting outside with one is almost like an hour long meditative practice of sorts.
