That's a classic, no doubt about it.

Yes, Nick sings it the best. One Hell of a song. The lyrics I point out as how to mix em up to avoid the usual same ole repetition.

Johnny Cash also did a great cover of Hurt, the Mine Inch Nails song, as you probably know, Ash.

Please pay attention to the title and the instructions, and your self image-- Readers' Choice is for AAPC poems not poems outside of the group.

Just what Will and Zod can use to take over the idea that was for the Group to use. If I wasn't their enemy, they wouldn't be using it to get back at me. I'm not too concerned, no one else was using it. And it's damning proof of their disguised malice. They're just using Ilya and ktell. With time they'll forget about anyone else and just use it to promote each others' work only.

Unfortunately.

Other things: there was one of Rochester's poems you had some good commentary on. Would you mind me using it for his personal poetry collection (not to go anywhere else)? He will be able to see it much easier than trying to find it here.

No, just good poetry at least that's how I look at the AAPC Reader's choice.

Leonard Cohen being one of the greatest of all time, of course the AAPC readers would pick him.

When they were first banned from "The Sunday Sampler," George Dance started an "Unsampled" magazine for their work. "AAPC Reader's Choice" appears to be playing a similar role in relation to "A Year of Sundays."

This is a wasted effort and just like telling a child, this is why we can't have nice things.

Cohen gets enough praise elsewhere, and this is not his fan group. This Award was for AAPC poets whom YOU DON'T GIVE TWO SHITS ABOUT UNLESS THEY'RE WILL DOCKERY SUPPORTERS.

ALSO:
"Leonard Cohen being one of the greatest of all time" is a piss pour comment on his poetry that any mindless fan boy would say, not a supposed poet.

Not a problem, I can work with whatever they try to do. Their whole strategy is based on a flawed groundwork which I can exploit easily.

Very good, Will.

You get a gold star.

But why do you feel this need to show us that you've learned a new word?

Please tell me that you don't think "hyperbole" is pejorative.
