<<BTW, have you seen 3 Musketteers?  the one w/ Charlie Sheen?  "As raident
beams of sunswept fire carres your passionate face.... "  Is that speech to
die for or what!? *drool*  I ~really~ need a bucket.....>>

		That's not poetry. That is some hollywood hack trying to sound poetic. If
you want poetry read Shakespeare's sonnets, Basho, Willaim Wordsworth
("Remembrance of Early Childhood"), John Keats' odes, Percy Shelly, Allen
Ginsburg, Diane Di Prima, 
Jack Kerouac, Sylvia Plaith and last but not least Oscar Wilde.

		Shadow
		The Villest deeds, like posion weeds
		Bloom well in prison air
		It is only the good in man
		That wastes and withers there
		Pale Anguish keeps the heavy gate
		And the warder is despair.- Oscae Wilde "The Ballad of Reading Gaol."
