like any prisoner with a teaspoon
will scrape through cinderblock,
so too would you claw your way
through sheetrock to the icy moon
and call it resurrection.

It's like an AP English high school sophomore, desperately trying to get that A. It's so incredibly atrocious. The only worse thing I can think of that you could post would be anything by Sean Penn.

Mr. Poe,

Be glad they aren't putting any of *my* drivel on the site. Why is it atrocious? Is it atrocious to consider the unfulfillable dreams of the heart as an appropriate subject for poetry? Do you find the prisoner with a spoon image to be cliche? Or does it simply not resonate with your sensibilities?

Also, why the need to attack? Good god, man, in the great scheme of things you should feel lucky indeed if reading this poem is the worst thing that happens to you today.

Including myself. I'm also almost never serious. I am a prisoner of negativity! I should scrape through my mental cinderblock with a teaspoon. I should claw my way through sheetrock to the icy moon. Woe is me.

FINALLY I can start burning those pesky Protestants at the stake again.... Cassey Treat is going to be first then the Hutch!!!

So, some pointers. Any church that is not in communion with the Holy See is heretical and need to be "taken care of" (See European history 16th and 17th Centuries for pointers). But I wonder if we are to actually burn the members of all the heretical "churches" or just the buildings themselves? What about George Bush? He is not Catholic, nor is Cheney.

Gee, I am so confused. I guess I should meet with a parish priest today after work for clarification. I mean you are either with Pope Benny or against him right?

With so much hate and judgment to spread, as history shows us again and again, they get bored with bashing the sinners and the Godless. So they start attacking each other. Either with swords, guns, bombs, or documents.
