  1. This arrived today in the mail.

    The Collected Works of Scotland's Other National Poet.

    And yes, he is completely talentless, doesn't understand scansion or rhyme, wouldn't know a metaphor or a simile if it bit him, but he is absolutely awesome in his sincerity. He believes he is a great poet.

  3. I find myself doing
    what I don't want
    to do, just to please you.
    We're tied in an
    unnatural,
    destructive dance.
    We love the
    thrill, it's the
    #penultimate
    checkmate, a lethal,
    noxious game.
    We tease&pray 4more.
    Is it love or hate we feel
    as we stare into oblivion?
