This is an interesting quiz. Wont you try it?

don't you love those e-mails? just love to see that in the inbox. always with a quaint little attachment. but click the link, because it is good. really. it isn't going to self-install onto yer hard drive or anything. just thought it was funny. moving on..

I found this at work last night. I guess you would call it a 'found poem', but it isn't in that found poems are made by words selected from a larger text and arranged into poetic form. which is something that sounds worth trying, but alas, I just literally found it. I'll call it 'happened-upon verse'.

once more I eat the lights
from behind the bar
once more I fall into
the hole inside my heart

giving into a promise
that you could never keep
here I am again
in over my head
I'm much too deep

trapped inside this fishbowl
finding there's no way out
and still it's sort of invigorating
to ignore the fear and doubt

there it is. on a small napkin. folded in half and caught in the doorjam. I think it should be open to psychological analysis seeing as how I have no clue who wrote it. so, let's talk. opens and closes strong, but the middle seems a bit weak. and not effectually - just weak. must be a big ol' fishbowl..

so much in two and a little months, but, y'know, sometimes this is what happens.
