Ok, I'll tell you about the Lost Caverns.


The Lost Caverns, a very special place to me, is a place
where free form thought expressed in writing is pretty much the only
way to be. For a little while, it existed in and out of various
message bases on a few different BBs'es, until one day, an ever so kind
sysop, let me have my own LC message base.

In this place, a common posting scenario from me is what I call
a brick.

Let me give you an example:


Twice, without knowing why
that which should have its
own way unfolded, had made
a decision on making fifty
pretty small phone numbers
into a group sized lasagna
flavoured moth ball that I
threw away repeatedly, but
promptly melted into snow.


Needless to say, the Lost Caverns comes out with a certain
degree of strangeness occasionaly.


Anyways, Goodmorning to all, especially Roderick, Tracy, Cecelia,
Dominik, NB Gary (to whom the above is written), Aouali, Barry, Inne, Maren,
Gladys, Jimbob and Kim (happy belated birthday).

Could this be said to be a tightly wound(sp?) post? Such as yarn for
example? So tightly done that it generates such a power from the energy
bouncing off the tightly constructed walls, searching for a place to release
it's pressure in hopes of creating relief for the poster? Or, could it
possibly be that the brick is a way to relieve one's strangeness while
having a legitamate reason for doing so? By the way, are the letters a clay
sort of color when you post? If it looks like a brick, and tastes like a
brick(my friends cooking) then it's....

Can I try?
Once upon a time, I started
to become really weird when
the sun began to shine upon
me through the window of my
bedroom, giving me the kind
of power in order to be the
Savior of the sun, in order
to save all the agmers from
the white snow from magsie.

Not quite as whitty, but not bad for a first attempt?

I think I must have been born there! It was really neat hanging from the
thingies on the top of the cavern. You know, those things that look like big
ol spear tips that would kill you if they ever fall. Use your imagination
then!

Thanks Phil, that was kind of you. Getting of that insecurity thing and
letting people in through that broken door. I know you didn't have an
insecurity, but it seemed to fit the phrase. Let's do this again sometime.

Good morning all! (This time I post private, not as Mr. Rick) :-)

Phil Plasma, you are great! tell us more about that Lost Cavern style,
please. I'm very impressed...

My first try (easier than a brick, of corse):

It
isn't
a great
one, but I
think for the
first time it will
do it. I'm impressed
and like styles like that.
A few germans have done similar
works, e.g. christian morgenstern in
"Fish's Nightsong" (very toughy
translated and written by
an english learner =
me). I'll call you
later as Mr.
Rick. Yes
you can
guess
bye
