  2. Egads! *clutches heart* A form poem--albeit an unknown and obscure one only used by Rumanian fortune tellers on Friday the 13th. I love it, and of course, now I have to try it myself. This is rather a dooorbell.

  13. I adore the condescending tone. I was gonna tease you about the Haikus and now a fucking form, but the gallery has teased you enough. :)

  14. This has me smiling widely! Love it! Quirky form and all it still speaks very truly of an eternal problem - how do you get a man to actually speak? *smile*
