The rhythm kinda reminds me of one of those longish prosish poems like Whitman or Ginsberg. And yeah, the possessives ain't no issue anymore. A little bugged, too, by the semicolon, but as far as I know, the usage ain't offensive, so nevermind.How does 3 not contain Biblical symbolism? 3 is the number of perfection! I think that belief goes way back, actually.
Still good stuff. I like how this ties with the next short poem you posted.
Mmmmm, I love me some longish prosish poems
I'm actually a huge fan of Ginsberg. I'd love Walt too if he would stop talking about his virile, potent seed for two seconds
Which is a strange double standard, because Ginsberg probably talks even more about sex than Walt. What do you have against semicolons?
Hmmmmm, a connection. To "Original Narcissism?" Maybe because of the effort to self-perpetuate? I could link them together, I suppose. Do a little collection of epigramish thingies.
