bending_sickleGods know I don't like inflicting bad poetry on the poor undeserving masses. Still, if any of you'd be kind enough to check out this post on ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
sickle_stories, I'd appreciate it. It's a rearrangement of a "spam poem" - i.e. a mess of lines gotten in spam - which seems to be the spam spawn** of a load of winter poems from the Chicago Press Winter Poems Collection.
I've got a few different variations for one stanza I'd particularly like input on.
But, you know, no pressure.
I also got a Hallmark E-Card from "tokenblackchick" - she who promised to do so for all who replied to her Valentines YouTube post on how much singles rule. That was very nice of her.
Dreamt I took the train one station too far and instead of Cubelles I exited in Montreal. Momentary confusion gave way to blissful joy and a sense of coming home.
Also, what a drawing says about me, purportedly***:
What does your drawing say about YOU?
You are driven and ambitious and tend to make radical moves to reach your goals.
You have a peaceful mind, viewing the world with calm and serenity. To you, life is not about struggle and strife but about existence and co-existence.
You like following the rules and being objective. You are precise and meticulous, and like to evaluate decisions before making them.
You have a sunny, cheerful disposition.
Frankly, with my rudimentary psychology, I can make a vastly different interpretation. Like, for example, there being a vast difference between "oh, sunny and warm" and "ack! desert dirt track".

*** Is this a word? Does it mean what I think it does?
