Wot?<BR/><BR/>Thanks SS -Prometheus aims to please.<BR/><BR/>Adrian - It would sound pompous, and Prometheus hates saying it, but the poem writes itself through him. He can't write a poem when he wants. The poem writes itself in 5 minutes, when it thinks its good and ready.Prometheushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00100825003021199721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7606880.post-1158773590380133612006-09-20T23:03:00.000+05:302006-09-20T23:03:00.000+05:30Another great poem.I couldn't write a witty poem.....Another great poem.<BR/><BR/>I couldn't write a witty poem...er...a poem in less than a year.

And thou shalt live long, the Gods need good people on earth. You may toast Prometheus with a tipple of your choice. Dom Perignon?<BR/><BR/>Thanks Woke. For the rest of the readers, this poem was in response to Woke's post on his early exit from poetry. And thus, Prometheus thanks Woke who has verily caused this poem to be created. He hopes Woke will achieve REAL glory with his poetry, unlike Prometheus.<BR/><BR/>Jules, thanks for stopping by. Prometheus eagerly awaits your next post. However, he and the Mahatma would be a bit like sour milk and cheese.Prometheushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00100825003021199721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7606880.post-1158479069870024772006-09-17T13:14:00.000+05:302006-09-17T13:14:00.000+05:30Oh, is it?you have got company.First they ignore y...Oh, is it?<BR/>you have got company.<BR/><BR/>First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win.<BR/>- Mahatma GandhiRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01850860500644316987noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7606880.post-1158471758535115552006-09-17T11:12:00.000+05:302006-09-17T11:12:00.000+05:30Dear Prometheus Looney Stevenson,I hereby acknowle...Dear Prometheus Looney Stevenson,<BR/>I hereby acknowledge your genius (if I havent done that already.) <BR/>WWokehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06506371136332079076noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7606880.post-1158436064103085152006-09-17T01:17:00.000+05:302006-09-17T01:17:00.000+05:30Jeez, being a gazillion years older than you, I ho...Jeez, being a gazillion years older than you, I hope to still be alive when you finally get that Poet Laureate thingy.
