You like the Marx Brothers?

Don't know who that is.

I don't ship crazy ships though, strangely enough. Slash is about the "weirdest" thing I ship.

As for other poetry, I really enjoy Elizabeth Bishops "One Art"

The art of losing isn't hard to master

I know all about it after I wrote a four page paper on it. Strangely enough, I enjoyed writing a four page paper on it. That's how much I liked it.

Is there a name for Twi's style of haircut?

Ilse-fied?

Oh, *BUY SOME APPLES* Here comes Twilight. Later!

Pronounced "Sid-zellia" Play my Drawception game.

Eeyup. I believe Twilight's mane is now soft and flowing. She can start in her own shampoo commercial now! :D

Also, who asked for clippings of her hair? I have a few right here.... (Going for $5 a gram)

I love The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock. Tried forever to get my mom to read it, but she just said it was nonsense.

Not for everyone I guess.

Yes, I do indeed like the Marx Brothers. Though my characterization of the harp pony won't be completely based on him. Because then I'd basically be shipping Harpo Marx as a pony, with a pony. And gay.

And that'd be kinda creepy.

Nonsense? How so?

Would pay for hair clippings of ponies if it means we can grow them in a lab or something.

Speaking of poetry, I tried to come up with another limmerick today but it didn't go so well.

If there is anything that you are alone in thinking, it's "thinking that you're alone in thinking of your theories".

#175461 condottiera Thu, 26th Apr '12 5:06:59 PM from Chicago

Harpo is already creepy.

And for those few of you who care about my opinion, my favorite Marx Brothers movie is Duck Soup.

She read it and just said it was nonsense, I guess. She's not into poetry very much, though.

Snap snap snap.

I wrote a little stanza for a fanfic I have coming up.

And we will walk along the road
A lantern as our only load
To give a tiny guiding light
Beneath the black and starless night.

#175463 ilsemmr Thu, 26th Apr '12 5:08:30 PM from Austin

Robert Frost is nice too:

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood

And then I can't remember the rest completely. My teacher is a lot better at memorizing

But I did have to memorize and recite 40 lines of poetry for a grade. I ended up choosing Satan's speech when he first sees Adam and Eve.

Not spirits, yet to heavenly spirits bright little inferior

Whom my thought pursue with wonder, and could

love. So lively shines in them divine resemblance

And such grace the hand that formed them on their shape hath poured

Ah gentle pair, ye little think how nigh your change approaches

When all these delights WILL VANISH AND DELIVER YE TO WOE

I've forgotten parts of it, but I'm surprised I still remember so much after more than 6 months...

I'm not a very big fan of Robert Frost. Walt Whitman never did much for me either, actually. And the best thing about William Carlos Williams is his name.

If you want a poetry collection, I recommend: "100 Essential Modern Poems" compiled by Joseph Parisi. It's really good and has some analysis and author information. Even though I'm not a poetry person, I still really enjoy that collection.

I like the villanelle format Elizabeth Bishop uses in "One Art" and that Dylan Thomas uses in "Do Not Go Gentle into That Good Night"

Have you ever read Pablo Neruda? I studied Spanish just so I could read his originals!

And modern poetry is cool, but I also like old stuff. Percy Shelly's stuff is cool, even though he was a jerk.

I remember reading this one a while back

in my english class.

Thought it was funny, a kid who gets his hand cut off by a buzzsaw.

#175473 ilsemmr Thu, 26th Apr '12 5:13:55 PM from Austin

@ con: I very rarely read in Spanish. I'm planning on taking a Spanish literature course later though, so that could be fun ^^

That... was just too cute!

Someone seems to be on a Shining Armor kick.

#175475 condottiera Thu, 26th Apr '12 5:15:25 PM from Chicago

I do remember that one, and I liked it because of the way it captured a tragedy. Shakespeare allusions always earn you brownie points, anyway. It's almost like cheating.

I did think a poem about a kid dying that way was inherently funny. Im a terrible person.
