The PigPen's Resplendent Kaffeeklatsch

[milo]

you know - bringing up Mercedes makes me remember
she promised - on multiple occasions - right here on this board
that if I ever came to NZ she would buy me a beer.

My question - do i have legal standing?

---

also - and on an unrelated matter -
I frequently watch the bots
how they haunt the who's online
forum. What will they pick? What draws them?

I work hard to write a poem
worthy to draw the attention
of the bots inhabiting the who's online forum?

Occasionally they will pick something
something I wrote long ago - infused
with the energy of the young

Are they drawn to the vibrancy of my youth
back when I would write lines like -
"We salute you our AI master -

Please conquer our world a little bit faster"
- and today - and for no reason at all -
they are drawn to the drafts

second draft of a poem in the novice forum
third draft of a poem about electric sheep
it makes me wonder - and at this point

I bet you wonder too - if I did make it to NZ
now - with mercedes long gone - and the executor
of her estate did the right thing

and took me to some swarthy NZ bar
and bought me a round - or - first shout
do you think they would get me second draft?
