Channel the passion that drives U to make this site into a story. GEEEZ billy I can not believe U think U cant be a real writer cus of a simple lack of following thru with it one time. U have a pool of poetic people here (some of us R poetically challenged) and R more then willing to kick you in the ass when U slow up on it and edit and critique it when U need it. Try it. 10 years ago U didn't have this site and the Virtual Poets Society so to speak. Its a invaluable resource for a writer. I am calling U out on this one. Can U find those 14 chapters that U wrote? Yes I know I do not know U from Adam or Steve but I KNOW I am right on this one.
Damn U really got my spring wound on that one. I hate when people sell themselves short. Maybe decaf is a good idea for me.
You make me happy
Ed, I love
Danny Deever. Kipling's affinity with the "common" man, coupled with his ability to make the "cultured" understand that the "common" have sensibilities worth taking note of, makes him one of the absolute greats. That calm rationalising of death to settle the ranks, when the Colour-Sergeant is clearly quite rattled himself, almost completely encapsulates the reasons why the British Empire succeeded so spectacularly.
Not that the British weren't without their fair share of imbecilic officers...
It could be worse
