elpoet,
I like the thing you wrote.
It's nice.
I learned a few things.
1) Mé·ri·da (mer'i-d?, me're-thä)
A city of southeast Mexico on the Yucatán Peninsula. It was founded in 1542 on the site of a ruined Mayan city. Population, 400,142.
2) Bukowski, Charles
(pronounced bookofskee)
(1920–94)
Poet, short-story writer, and novelist, born in Andernach, W Germany. He moved with his parents to the USA in 1922. An underground writer, his works include four novels, several collections of short stories, and many volumes of verse. A cult figure who did not achieve popular success, he had a sardonic sense of humour which is reflected in some of his titles, such as Play the Piano Drunk Like a Percussion Instrument until the Fingers Begin to Bleed a Bit (1979).

3) in·ev·i·ta·ble (in-ev'i-t?-b?l)
adj.
Impossible to avoid or prevent. See Synonyms at certain.
Invariably occurring or appearing; predictable: the inevitable changes of the seasons.
Used in a sentence:
It was inevitable that Clappy would make a poor excuse of a post, simply to GRUB number 3000.
Hee Haw!
-Grubmeister
<Clappy takes post #3000 and puts it into his jar...>
P.S. Have you read any of Bukowski's short stories? If so, which ones? I like short stories. They fit in well with my short attention span... |
