Good job. :-) " -- Heather , Wayne , Pa . "Absolutely a favorite "Lynch poem" of mine! As I know in Belguim "Mannequin Pis" is a favorite statue (of a a little boy peeing in the middle of the road, in the middle of nowhere, with nowhere else to go", the value of the commode is a process of our life. The funny part of a poem like this is to point out that this is one "common denominator" between all animals... No animal in the animal kingdom is "better or worse" than another when it comes to the realization that we all "go to the bathroom" and "everyone's s---t stinks"... no human being better.... no human being worse... just a fact of life and life's true meaning of equality. And when it comes to comparisons and "keeping up with the Joneses", this is one area of life that there will not be true competition... >> Richard, people who are offended may be those that think their "s---" doesn't stink... Well, it does... and your poem does not.. its brilliant! and its down to basics and makes us think ... and appreciate a fact of life ...>> " -- H.J.Scherrer, Marietta, GA, USA.

Brings me back to my thoughts of where in the world did they 'do it' before they were invented. I've been watching those Biblical movies because it's Easter so I pause to reflect...the importance of the toilet." -- Sandy Daley, Los Angeles, Calif., U.S.A. The Housecat by Richard Lynch (4) "succinct... no wasted words... economy of movement...that's where it's at (G)" -- Jac Howard. "We all have our place on this earth... Some of us are stifled.. all of us have choices... All of us could "settle" or rebel.... Many of us could change or be changed... Most of us should find joy in the moment... and appreciate our freedom of choice or we will be like the cat, locked into a life we did not choose... wasting our abilities when we could have put them to use... As human beings, we find the door to escape with our excuses... As animals we conform (with excuses) to be loved and sheltered ..." -- Helen, Marietta, GA, USA. "I like this poem I love cats." -- Jeanette . "Metaphor for people who don't dare chase their dreams; too risky. But the housecat has no choice.

"Richard, 2 hearts that beat as one and their souls are bound by destiny and ecstacy and fantasy and fulfillment...and like your poem shares, nothing can tear that love apart...not even death... So tragic. So real. Time on this earth so precious and together means every moment counts. Time on this earth with that special "someone" means time eternal. As you will know, I love your poem. Even the sadness and death show meaning in life in such a beautiful poem... Hope it means a future together, on earth and in death...." -- Helen, Marietta, GA, USA. "Richard, this is by far the most touching poem i've ever read...I'm speechless..." -- Ryan Morales. Girl And Boy by Deb Meyer (2) "Wow I really liked that poem. Being a teenager I enjoy reading poems about realationships, but this one I particularly liked. It was suspenseful and surprising, but at the same time it was a sad poem to read. You did a great job with this piece of writing." -- Jessica Parise, Normal, IL, USA. "This was one of the greatest poems I have ever read. I think several girls or boys can relate to this situation.

Revisitation Du Beaudelaire by Laurette M Lalibert� Delouise (2) "what can I say, L... I liked it all in all... i liked the fancy words... but what does 'ABHOR' mean???" -- Hu Long Wai (Veronica). "Thank you for reviewing it. I'm sorry for any confusing language. I used words from Beaudepaires own poetry and wove them into a tributary poem. "Abhor" means to hate.

"Tyrant, I'm not sure what you mean by your comment, but it's pretty rude to accuse someone of stealing a title. I don't even know who the hell Weezer is." -- Lissa. "My two cents on this: Tyrant suffers from that mortal flaw so prevailant among decent writers; arrogance. I am guilty of the same. In any case, I really like what I've seen from you thus far, Lissa.
